I Gained More Than Just A Friend From You

Why'd you put up with me

I Gained More Than Just A Friend From You
Favim.com

To the guy who put up with much more than he had to during his first year of college. Even though I was a year older than you, you never left me in the dark. You didn't need to care about what was going on in my life but some reason you did.

You understood what I was going through immediately after we met and took precedence in what I was doing and how I handled myself around others. You will never know, how much it meant for you to answer my late night texts, and then you would even come to sit with me after I had my panic attacks and ask if I wanted to talk about what was going on and if I didn't you respected just sitting there with me and giving me company. You made sure I was eating and sleeping when I was so stressed out at times from the classes, that I couldn’t even prioritize my own life. You dealt with having to sit up and having me cry all over your shoulder and most of those times I was crying. Most of the times I was crying was for no reason and just sat there hugging me, and reassured me that everything would get better. You never said I was over reacting, till I was done crying and had some kind of sugary snack in my hands and made me laugh about why I was crying. You took me out numerous times for late night meals to take my mind off the rest of the world. Those late nights were always the most memorable times even if I had been crying before hand.

I continuously tell you how much the time we spent together meant to me, and as each of our course loads gets heavier; I miss it a lot more. You will still never know how much that time really did mean. You were the one person I could always count on even at 4 am. You knew everything about me within a couple months, and back then I wouldn’t open up about myself to another living soul about what I had been going through. Thank you for always being the person I could count on even when you had better things to do those nights. Thank you for caring about me when I didn’t care enough about myself. Most of all thank you for all the great memories you gave me, even when I wasn’t having the best days and didn’t deserve to have you sitting with me at all.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
