A Letter To My Little Sister

Dear Abby,

Lucky you, you're stuck with me. No matter how many times I do or don't say it, I love you. You're my built in best friend and I'm so lucky you came into my life. Having you as a sister has been the best thing that ever happened to me.

I know when we were younger we weren't always the best of friends until it came time for me to leave for college. But, I'm so happy we've become as close as we have. You're the best secret-keeper, the person I can trust the most and you're always there to listen to my rants and cries. I know I must annoy you 99% of the time but, you're my favorite person to annoy.

All the fights over you stealing my clothes, listening to you cry over something mom said to you, how the boys were mean to you, and everything in between are my favorite things. While this may sound weird but, I love that you let me in and allow me to be there as a shoulder to cry on. I know that I've always come to you crying over bullies or small problems, it makes me happy, you feel that you can do the same.

You may be my little sister but I look up to you more than anyone. You've taught me to push past the rough times and that you can do anything if you try. I've watched you go from a terrible gymnast, to a level 9 and then a freshman on the varsity diving team. You've worked so hard to get where you are, injuries and all.

I may be 8 hours away from you the majority of the year but know that I'm only a call away. I'm always here for you to always listen to you rant, tell me about your diving meets and even just to tell me little things. I don't know how many times I've said this and how many more I'll tell you, but I'm so proud of you. I'm proud of everything you've become, the person you are today and will continue to be. I'm proud of all your accomplishments and I love telling people how proud I am of you. No matter how many times we fight I'm still your big sister and I love you no matter what.

My little sister, you're beautiful, determined, hard working, and so talented. Follow your dreams and never give up. No matter what happens in your life, know I'm always proud of you and always look forward to seeing your face. You are so capable of anything you want to do and I'll always be there to cheer you on. I can't wait to continue to watch you grow up.

Love you forever,

Your big sister

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
