6 Reasons I Want to Be a Cat

When life gets hard, sometimes I just wish I could be a cat. Every time I come home I’m reminded of the easy life that my cats have. Cats don’t have responsibilities and they get to live their lives being waited on by humans. What a life it would be to be a cat.

1. I would get to sleep a lot without anyone questioning it

I just recently learned that cats sleep on average 14 hours a day. That’s a really long time. Cats get to sleep when they want and no one tells them they can’t because they don’t have any responsibilities.

2. I get to always be warm

Having a fur coat and a warm house to be in all the time must make life that much easier. Plus, I can sleep in a bed with humans for warmth at night!

3. I would get to speak cat

I have meowed back at my cats for years and I don’t really know what they are saying. Maybe I could finally have an actual conversation with my cat.

4. I can sleep where I want

My cats always just sleep wherever they want in the house and it seems like the good life. Cats don’t have to go find a bed to sleep in when they are tired, they just lay down and curl up!

5. There are no responsibilities

As a cat I wouldn’t have to be stressed, do school work or laundry. I just wander around living my life without problems. The only problems I could ever run into are other cats.

6. You can fit in small spaces

One of the best things about cats is that they will play in boxes. If I was a cat I would be a box cat.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
