A Letter To My Old Friend

There are just a few things I want you to know...

Dear Old Friend,

I find myself thinking about you a lot some days. I miss being able to text you and tell you about the newest things in my life. I miss hanging out with you and laughing until we had tears streaming down our faces and our tummies hurt. I miss the countless amounts of food we would eat while watching our favorite shows. I miss having you as my go-to person, but unfortunately, all good things have to come to an end at some point.

Some of my favorite memories are with you; and while those memories will never leave my heart, our friendship had to go. You became toxic for me to be around. And even though I wish I could forgive everything that has happened, I can't. There are a few things I want you to know, though.

I'm always going to be here for you

No matter what happened between us, you can always find solace in me. Feel free to come to me with anything ever, and I will be there to the best of my ability.

You're going to go far in life

I can't wait for you to figure everything out and begin the journey that you've always dreamed about. I know there are a few things holding you back, so I pray that you can work through them and start succeeding in what you want to succeed in!

I wish you good health

Like I said in my last point, you have things you want to figure out before you start pursuing your dreams, and I can only hope that you are able to get all of the answers you are needing to be healthy again.

I'm never going to forget the countless laughs we shared

The times we laughed so hard until we fell over are the times I look back fondly on now, when I think of our friendship. I loved every single time we would just look at each other and know exactly what the other was thinking in a big group setting and just burst out laughing. Those are the days that I'm going to remember forever.

Thank you

Thank you for being there for me in all of my times of need, even if it meant staying up late, which I know you hated to do. Thank you for being my friend all those years and sharing a love of food, Netflix, going to concerts, and shopping 'til we dropped. You made high school more bearable and you helped me understand myself a bit more. But most importantly, thank you for being my friend.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
