An Open Letter To The Girl Who Has Not Found Her Way

To the girl who hasn't found her way,

You know who you are. You're the girl who is behind on everything.

You don't know who you are or where you are going. You have plans, but you have not had the chance to see them through. You have dreams of places you want to see, things you want to try, people you want to meet, but you haven't found your way yet.

You're the girl who hasn't had the perfect life. You are full of insecurities, doubts, fears, but at the end of the day you are still confident, smart, and strong. You get down sometimes, but there is always something that will be there to pick you up.

You are the girl who hasn't had the perfect relationships. Maybe you haven't had any yet. The relationships are far from flawless. They may be nothing like you imagined, but you still see the good anyway.

You went to school for a specific thing, but you've already changed your mind. It doesn't mean that life is over, it just means you're changing your mind to get things right.

You've made mistakes. You have said things that you are not proud of. You have had your feelings hurt on multiple occasions. You have lost people that you want back in your life. You have wasted time on people. You have taken for granted what you had before it was gone.

All those things may seem terrible. It may seem as though everything was wrong.

Look over here. It's the bright side

Love yourself so that you can love others better. Live so others can live through you. Laugh a lot, cry very little. Smile even when it seems like the world doesn't want you to. Be kind to others because you never know what battle they are facing.

Make mistakes so you can learn from them.

You are you. As cliche as it sounds, no one can do it better. You're going to find your way even when it seems like you will not. Believe in yourself even when no one else will. Find your way no matter how long it takes.

You can do it. You just have to keep telling yourself.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
