Why I Admire My Best Friend.

There Is Always One Person In Your Life Who Says And Does All The Right Things, That's My Best Friend.

There is always that friend that deep down, you know always has the right answer. The friend that can steer you in the right direction. The friend that can build up the courage to move past things that you would otherwise stew over for days. The friend that makes you wish you had their temper.

(What a handsome headshot, am I right ladies?)

I have a friend like that. A best friend, actually. I can always count on him to give me valuable advice. I don't mean the generic advice that could be applied to anything. I mean the type of advice that you know was well-thought out and completely sincere to not only your feelings, but the situation.

My best friend and I can get into a fight, one that is usually caused by me (nothing special there), and instantly be ready to forgive and forget. It's not the kind of forgive and forget where the other person just pushes it out of their head and one day explodes from all the things they had originally disregarded. No. It's the kind of thing that after we've talked the problem through thoroughly, apologies have been made from both parties (even if it was only one person who caused the problem), and your best friend says, "I accept your apology and I am ready to move past this." This is a quality that's hard to find.

I can text or call my best friend, regardless of what time it is, and ask for advice. My best friend knows me so well that he knows that although I am asking for advice, I know what I should do and that I just wanted a second opinion.

If I'm sad, or my day was awful, I can always count on a smile from him. There is always a joke, a funny face, or simply talking about anything, that I can count on my best friend for. He's my shoulder to cry on, both when I am sad, or when he makes me laugh so hard that I start crying.

I admire my best friend for being so incredibly strong. No matter what situation, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Sometimes, I don't think I deserve this light in my life, the person who knows all the right things, but I sure am thankful to have him.

I love my best friend through and through. I may be crazy, and I may not always make the greatest decisions, yet my best friend has never left my side. There has never been an instance of my best friend giving up on me, only him trying to make me happy, or patch up what I have broken in my life.

I believe that I am the luckiest girl on this planet to have a person like this in my life. That is something I will never let go...

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.
