Thank you for being everything no other guy was.

To The Boy Who Changed Everything

Before you, I did not care. I did not cry. I did not love. I did not feel. Before you, I was never committed too. Before you, I was never sure of myself or anything. Before you, I was unknowingly unaware of what real love is.

Thank you for the clarity.

When I was unsure of what I wanted and what grounds we were on, thank you for slowing things down and reassuring me you were still here. You have no idea how much clarity it gives me when you say things like, "I want you," "I want this" or "Let's do this." Thank you for never leaving me walking on eggshells, trying to figure out what you want.

Thank you for being there and being loyal.

Never knowing someone's intentions beforehand is murderous to a girl's mind. All the little things you do to let me know you are only mine and I am only yours is lessening my stress that much more. Hearing you talk about a future and getting married and kids is a new light at the end of a tunnel that's only been full of darkness. Trust has become a non-fictional thing, and it doesn't make me feel like an egg that has been shattered, but is trying to get by just taped together.

Thank you for making everything so easy.

Being with you is never hard; it's never exhausting; it's never boring. You always make sure I'm happy and full and warm and anything else. When we make plans, it's never 20 minutes of, "Well, what do you want to do?" Your ability to make choices for the both of us reassures me that you're in this for me too, not just your own agenda.

Thank you for going through all the steps.

I've seen movies, and they never related to actual life until you came along. Thank you for not just texting me after 10 p.m. Thank you for asking me out on a date and paying for it. Thank you for meeting my family and letting me meet yours. Thank you for making me a priority in your busy schedule, and thank you for creating a picture of our future. The certainty all your effort gives me is like a breath of fresh air. Hearing you ask me to be your girlfriend, asking me to make this real, made my heart drop to my butt. Having someone who wants to be seen with you in daylight, someone who isn't embarrassed to eat out instead of always ordering in — that's whom I needed.

Thank you for being goofy with me.

Between tickle fights and funny faces and kitchen messes, you stole my heart. Farts became funny instead of something to be hidden, and a period didn't mean we stopped hanging out for a week. Thank you for the inside jokes we'll never forget and laughing at videos just because you know I think it's funny. My phone memory is filled with memes for our random meme text wars. There's something fulfilling about someone you can laugh with in the harsh times.

Thank you for always believing in me.

No matter how many times I say I can't make it any farther, you always help me push that extra inch. Whether it's school and I'm struggling to get up and just wanna cuddle you 'til noon, but you keep me on track with my goals or sports where my terrible losing attitude is enough to push you off the edge, thank you for staying calm and collected and for always knowing what to say (or cook LOL).

Basically, thank you for being everything I needed, wanted and everything no other guy was. Thank you for allowing me to wake up every morning refreshed, knowing whatever I do today will be 10 times better because you'll be by my side.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
