Having a large group of friends is great because you always have someone to talk to. But there is always that one friend who is a bit more special that the rest of them. This is your best friend, the one who can…

It made me sick and angry, that her life was thrown away so easily just because her boyfriend failed to use proper protection.

During this time, we may remain close friends or distant acquaintances with one another. We may even experience an outfall due to an argument or betrayal. In rare cases, unforgiveable actions thrash the line of friendship. Depending on the situation, every individual acts differently. Burdened by low self esteem and eternal struggles,…

A new school and new friends led to my world being forever changed. …

received a text message from a friend of mine. At the time we were not all that close, and we pretty much just talked inside of school. Little did I know that we would become inseparable the very next day. The text message said, "Can you come over for dinner tonight?" I asked my mom, and she told me that I could not go, because she did not know my friend 's mom. My mom said, "I don 't feel comfortable letting you go to someone 's house that I 've never met." I told my friend that I was unable to…

In April of 2012, on a spring break day, my sister and I had no clue that this normal-seeming day would turn into a day full of surprise. Maya, my sister, was four years old with blonde hair and eyes as light blue as a clear sky. Many people said her hair was as soft as silk.

My mom, dad, sister and I had just approached our…
