To The Family Members Who Inpsire Me To Be Great, Thank You

People come and go as you go on through life, but the ones who stay by your side every step of the way are the ones who are most important. Personally, I have quite a few people who inspire me and who have stuck by my side no matter what road in life I am on.

My grandfather. Personally, I like to think I'm his favorite, but all jokes aside, he's truly there for me. He isn't one to talk much or get emotional or talk about his feelings, but he's always there. He listens. He doesn't hover, and though he isn't one to do the talking, he says the right things when you need them. He's been my right-hand man since the day I was born, and he'll always be my go-to guy.

My grandmother. She is my strength. She gives me the strength I need even when she's at her lowest and weakest points. She is currently battling breast cancer, and even on her most painful and tired days, she puts in the effort to make sure I'm okay. She fights like hell and there's not one person I know that is stronger than her.

My mom. She gives me clarity. She keeps me on the right track and where I should be at life. When I don't know what direction to go, she shows me the way. She teaches me the right ways and makes sure I steer clear of the wrong ways. She gives me the knowledge I need, even when I don't know I need it.

My dad. He lights up the world. He's a genuinely happy person and makes an effort to speak to everyone he sees. He's joyful and proud. He lights up my life.

These are just a few people who mean the absolute world to me. They inspire so much to be the best I can be and to do something great. I wouldn't be who I am, or where I am in life without them.

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.

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.

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. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
