Open Letter To My Friend With Low Self-Confidence

There is nothing harder than seeing someone you think so highly of think poorly about themselves.

Open Letter To My Friend With Low Self-Confidence

You are my best friend, my go-to, my person as they say in "Grey's Anatomy" and the fact that you don’t see yourself like I do is heartbreaking.

Well, guess what? It’s my turn to be your cheerleader.

You are kind beyond words. You would do anything for anyone. You take the time out of your day to help others, compliment people and ultimately brighten another person's day.

Not many folks can say that about themselves, you have made my day on so many occasions it is impossible to count. You are witty. I don’t think you truly realize how funny you are because you always have the perfect joke or comeback and they never fail to make me laugh.

You are encouraging. You are my cheerleader. You are always the first person to tell me not to give up. You are there for me in everything I do, telling me how awesome I am and how I will succeed no matter what.

You are extraordinary. I know that whatever you do, you will do with kindness, grace and intelligence.

Most of all I hope whatever you do, you do with confidence. You deserve to believe in yourself 100 percent of the time and even if you don't always feel completely 100 percent, just know I will always be there to boost you up. I know that you will not only succeed in all that you do but you will thrive.

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.

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.
