An Open Letter To My Best Friend

To my best friend, without you my life would not be as bright.

Dear Best Friend,

Thank you. Thank you for believing in me when no one else did, including myself. I will forever cherish those moments of joy and laughter that we shared countless times. You are my rock, you keep me grounded when I go through a rough patch at school and at home. Thank you for never judging me, even though I gave you countless times to. My best friend, your light shines so brightly in my life... regardless of the distance between us.

Dear best friend, thank you for teaching me how to love Jesus... and to love myself in the process. Those times before we would perform, and we prayed, those were my favorite. In the midst of the craziness of a pre-show, you were there to remind me to give glory to the one and only King. You taught me to love God by sharing your story and life with me. Best friend, because you taught me to love Jesus, you also taught me to love myself. You taught me that I am a daughter of a loving King and that I will never be forsaken. Best friend, you taught me that I am worth being loved and cared about.

Dear best friend, thank you for supporting me in everything I do (even if I have switched majors eight times). You value my dreams and passions just as much as you do yours. I can always count on you to be proud and happy about me helping lead worship, getting a new job or even being happy for because I made an A on a test.

Dear best friend, I don't know what I would do without you. You will never know how much I love you, my sister in Christ. You will never know how much good you have done in my life, or how much joy you bring to me. Best friend, you will always hold a piece of my heart.

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.
