A Letter To My Future Daughter
jasonuoft

To my heart,

You're gonna do great things in this world and especially in mine. I'm sure your just like me. Full of attitude and a huge smile. With so much intelligence to make me wonder how you do it.

Oh, sweet girl, how much I love you. You're so beautiful in every single way. I wonder if you have my curly hair, I wonder if you have my eyes.

I hope I can be the mom you deserve to have.

I can't promise to get you to school on time every morning but I can definitely promise to always always ALWAYS, support you through everything you love and everything you do.

I also can promise to cry at every recital, competition, graduation and your firsts.

I can't promise I won't embarrass you but just remember it's out of love miss thang.

When you become a teen, I know you won't understand that I was once a teen too and that I know what you're gonna go through. So just trust me.

I know you won't always like me and that's okay because everything I do will be for your own good.

I hope you pick good friends in high school, I hope you are honest and caring towards everyone.

Have a good heart.

You're going to face a lot of hard stuff in life and you have to be strong.

I pray Pray you don't cry at night when I'm asleep because of a broken heart.

You are so worthy of anything and everything you want. But sometimes things you want just aren't enough for you.

I promise to always remind you that I love you and hug you on your bad days.

And I will always pick you up when you fall. I will always kiss and hug you when tears are running down your face.

My number will always be on speed dial on your iPhone 10 (who knows).

Before I go, never forget who you are. If you learn one thing out of this, never lose that smile of yours. Don't let people or other influences change who you are. Stay true to your heart. Sometimes I forgot that and I will make sure you won't.

Sincerely,

Your future mom

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
