An Open Letter To My Best Friend(s)
Jade Sanders

Dear Best Friend,

If it weren’t for you being in my life, I wouldn’t be who I am today or where I am today. In fact, I would probably be a complete mess. You have been there for me through just about everything including drama with other friends, complicated relationships, my (sometimes) dramatic attitude, and my sassiness. Even during the times that I am at my worst, you are at your best for me to lean on you and I couldn’t be more grateful.

You know every single one of my weaknesses and you know every single one of the strengths. You see and know my flaws and yet you still show me the love of a sister. I am completely exposed to you but still, you make an effort to stick around.

You let me talk your ears off about things that push my buttons, about things that I am passionate about, and things that make me warm and fuzzy inside. When something interesting (or uninteresting) happens in my life, you’re the first person I call to tell every single detail to. If it were not for your open ears and open mind, I would probably be insane right about now.

You are real with me. The best thing someone could give me is their honesty. Sometimes you are brutally honest but I am extremely appreciative of your constructive criticism; especially when it’s about my choice of clothing for a night out or about a boy I have been hanging out with. I can always count on you for delivering effective and concise advice towards me during times that I am being delirious.

You see things in me that I don’t see in myself. Even though I have a good amount of confidence, I still have moments where my self-consciousness takes over and I lose faith in myself. You are constantly there reminding me that I am made in the Lords image and that I am a beautiful human being. If it weren’t for your kind encouraging words I wouldn’t know much self-worth.

I am proud to call you my best friend. I thank the Lord every morning and night for providing me with someone so special to be by my side. I am not capable of describing how thankful I am for you in words. You have been a radiant light in my life and I hope that every person in this world can experience a friendship like the one you and I have. You are a wonderful soul on this Earth and I want you to know that I am forever thankful for you.

I am so excited to see where our lives will lead us. I know that whatever happens, you and I will continue nurturing our special friendship and bond.

Sincerely,

Your Best Friend

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
