To my Former Best Friend,

First, I would just like to say how proud I am of you. I am so proud of you for chasing your dreams. You always were the one to know exactly what you were going to do and then doing it. I want you to know that I miss you and the friendship we once had. We grew apart and that’s okay but I will forever be thankful for the season of life we shared together.

From elementary school to high school, you were there for it all. You helped shape me into the person I am today and I will forever be thankful for that. You taught me what it means to be strong in aspects of my life. To be strong emotionally, physically, and spiritually. You would never let me settle because you knew I could do so much more. I will always be thankful that God let us grow up together. I’m glad I was able to be a part of your crazy family and that you were able to be a part of mine. I will always treasure the memories I have with you. From sleepovers to football games to youth trips to family gatherings to everything in between, you were there. We were the dynamic duo that couldn’t be separated. I am so thankful that God let our paths cross and let us walk through a season of life together. I can honestly say I am a better person because of you and the impact you made on my life.

I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss you and the friendship we once had. Our lives have gone in different directions and that’s okay. I hope you’re having a great time at university. I know you’re going to do amazing things and I can’t wait to see what God has planned for you. You have been one of my greatest blessings and I am so glad God gave me you for a season of my life. I am always here for you and I hope to catch up with you soon.

Love you always,

Your Former Best Friend

AI music threatens creativity

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.
