Dear Best Friend

A short letter to my childhood best friend

Dear Best Friend

Dear Best Friend,

I am so happy that we have remained friends after all these years (I think its around fourteen or fifteen years). I love that we can have conversations with pictures and that we have been there for each other through everything. I love that you share the same thoughts (except for who Rory should end up with) about most everything. Harry Potter is a common conversation as well as how your kids are doing. They are so precious and I love that they like most of the same things that we do. Especially Carson and his love for Mickey Mouse. I love that you let me be a part of their lives and that we are still so close. I know that if I ever have a problem I can text you and you will talk me down from the near mental breakdown or tell me that everything will be okay. I wouldn't trade the conversations that we have for anything in the world. Even though we live so far apart, we will never be too far to be there are each other. I like that we can watch a Disney movie and sing the songs word for word and not care how the other sounds or looks. I like that we still share a bed when I come visit or you come to visit me (sorry Shane for kicking you out of your own bed.) I love the fact that you got me addicted to Chai from Starbucks, even though there is not one anywhere close to me. I also love that we always go to Chikfila when we are together. Also the amount of oreos that is consumed when we're together is unbelievable. You know pretty much everything about me and my weird quirks. I love when you recommend books for me to read and tell me if I would like something or not. I love that we can talk about anything, I also love that you asked me to be the maid of honor in your wedding. I know that I don't tell you enough but I do appreciate all that you do for me as well as all that you help me with. I love that I will always have a room in the house that we always talk about having one day. I mean really when you think about it, we have talked about a house that we can have both of our families living in for a long time. I love that you are a beach bum like me and that you wouldn't rather be anywhere else. Thank you for being my best friend and always being there for me.

Sincerely,

Your Best Friend

P.S. Rory should've ended up with Jess and not Logan!!!

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.

We all have a love hate relationship with winter, lets be real here. The snow makes people forget how to drive, its cold, the roads are bad, and chances are, you will be spending a lot more money than you do during the other months of the year. If you’re from the Midwest, it seems to be that winter lasts for what feels like forever. But despite the struggles that winter brings, there are so many things to love about it.

The Post Thanksgiving Panic And Anxiety

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.
