5 Reasons To Love Lin-Manuel Miranda

Google

Anyone who has spoken to me in the past year can tell you that I am a dedicated Hamilton fan who adores Lin-Manuel Miranda. Lin has so many amazing qualities, and he deserves all the happiness and fame that Hamilton has brought to him. Here are 5 reasons why Lin is an incredible man who deserves to be loved!

1) #Ham4Ham Shows

Lin understands that the ticket prices to see Hamilton are high and the chances of getting a ticket are low. Therefore, every Wednesday and Saturday show included a #ham4ham show. People could pay ten dollars to enter a raffle to win tickets. In addition, Lin invited different talents, either from the cast or outside performers, to come perform a skit or song for the people waiting for the raffle. He did this so that no one felt as if they wasted a day or were going home empty-handed. Thousands of people showed up to the #ham4ham shows to try their luck and watch an awesome show!

2) Husband Goals

Lin truly sets the standards so high for all other guys. Not only is his a genius, this is a fact not an exaggeration, he is also a sweetheart. He surprised his wife on their wedding day by having family and friends join in on a choreographed number of the song "L'chaim" from Fiddler on the Roof. This was super cute, and I now expect something like this to happen at my wedding! I included the link to the video, so watch and enjoy!

3) Interacts With Fans

Lin is the best at responding to his fans, especially over Twitter. He is always making our mornings and evenings with his funny and thought-provoking tweets. Also, Lin retweets and responds to questions that his fans have. He tries to connect with as many people as he can and show how much he cares about us. Here is an example of the lovely type of things he tweets in the morning to make our day!

4) He Is Extremely Talented

Lin is incredibly talented. Hamilton is an amazing piece of art which has impacted the lives of those around the world. Lin not only starred as the title role of Alexander Hamilton, a role which he was completely fantastic at portraying, but he also wrote the lyrics, score, and book for the entire show, an unfathomable task. But Hamilton is not the first show Lin has written. He is also known for his smash-hit musical In The Heights which was also a Tony winning production.

5) He Is Just So Darn Adorable

No arguments about it!

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
