To My Person

You're The One I'd Call To Help Me Drag The Corpse Across The Living Room Floor

To My Person
Alexa Rubano

First of all, let’s get this straight: you are my person. You are the person I would call in case anything awful happened to me or I did something awful to someone else. You’re always there when I need you, and you’ve never judged me in the past. You understand that I’m only human, and that I’m going to make mistakes. But the best part about you is, you will be the first person to tell me that I’m wrong.

I need you there for me, because most of the time, I won’t know that I’m being stupid. I’ll fall for that guy who turns out to be an asshole, even though you warned me about him to begin with. I’ll say that stupid thing in class even though you tell me that I shouldn’t say it out loud. And I will make a fool of myself 99% of the time. It’s okay though, because I know you’ll be there to pick up the pieces every single time, and I really do thank you for that.

At the risk of making this extremely corny, I just want to quickly tell you how much you mean to me. Not only are you my best friend, but you are also my sister, my partner, and my adventure buddy. You’re always down for anything and everything, and I honestly never have a dull time when I’m hanging out with you. I also can’t remember a time when we’re together that I haven’t laughed so hard that I’ve cried. I guess I have you to thank for my 2-out-of-6-pack.

I can call you at any time of the day and I know you’ll respond, which is absolutely amazing to me. If a guy is driving me crazy and I don’t know how to answer him, I’ll send you a screenshot and you’ll immediately reply with a more witty and humorous response than I could have ever imagined. So thanks for that sense of confidence as well.

I really just wanted to tell you that I’m so happy you’re in my life. I honestly would be miserable without you, because you’re the one that allows me to laugh at all of the messed up stuff that goes on in my life, which is really awesome. And of course, you know that this is a two-way street and I would do anything for you.

Being your best friend has been hysterical, amazing, and adventuresome. I’m so incredibly happy to call you my person, because you are. You are the person I would call for absolutely everything and anything (and usually I do), so thank you so much for putting up with me and my ridiculous “life-threatening” issues. I don’t think anybody else on this planet has the patience that you do, and I don’t think I’d have more fun with anybody else. Thanks for being you, and thanks for being my person.

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.
