I never got to meet you. You were out of the picture way before I entered.

I understand you have a lot of hatred in your heart and I don't know who put that there. You treat people like objects rather than friends. I don't know who hurt you, but I am sorry you are hurting.

I just wanted to thank you for the many things you have done without ever meeting me.

Thank you for breaking his heart. Thank you for making him miserable for the few months you dated. Thank you for treating him the way you did. Because without you, he wouldn't have gone looking for me.

If he had been happy he would've stayed. He would've never given up on your relationship. You helped him grew into a better man. You helped him realize what he wanted in life. He was done playing games, and I am sorry it hurt you when he was done playing yours.

As a girl, I understand your perceptive. You loved him. Well, you thought you loved him. I understand it is hard to let someone go that you cared so much about. I have been there. But just like I let go of my past, I am glad you finally let him go.

I wish you the best. I hope someone comes along and finally treats you the way you want to be treated. I hope you find your perfect puzzle piece. I wish you happiness. I hope you let go of the anger and hatred in your heart. But in all honesty, I hope we never cross paths. We would have no words to exchange or benefit from being friends. It would just be weird.

I wanted to thank you for being you. Because you and I are very different. Because I have learned so much from someone I have never met. Because you sent me my best friend. Thank you for never meeting me. Thank you for letting him go.

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.
