In the Eyes Of Your Best Friend

You don't need a man to make you who you are.

In the Eyes Of Your Best Friend
Audrey Scoggins

Hi, beautiful. I wanted to write you this to let you know exactly how I see you without a man by your side.

Loved

My friend, I know you know what I am about to say. However, a little reminder never hurt anyone. You are so very loved. You are loved by me and so many other that fill your life. Even your dog loves you so much more than any stupid boy ever will.

Deserving

With that being said, you should know that you deserve to be loved. Your heart overflows for anyone you meet and your kindness radiates from your smile. That strong woman that I know is worthy of love and just need a push towards the man that has the kind of love you deserve.

Successful

The word successful has been manipulated into the word “salary.” This is wrong because you are the most successful person I know. You are successful in pulling your life together when everything tries to tear you down. You are successful. You do have a job, you go to school and you are working your life out so that you can have the life you have always wanted. That does not take a man, it takes you, and I am so proud of you.

Courageous

Life throws the male species in our paths, but you my dear do so well without them. When he messes up your life you throw it right back. You are strong and independent. Moving on is difficult, but you do that because of the strong- willed heart that you have. Nothing and no one could take what you are building for yourself away from you.

Passionate

Love is the word we use for so many things and I personally love it in regard to cake, but you love with your whole heart and nothing less. When someone has entered your life that is worthy of your love a passion burns inside of you. I want you to know that I see that same passion in everything else that you do. You are you and that heart still burns whether it is for a man or not.

Set Apart

I want the next man to walk into your life to see you and love you more than I do (ha, right). When this day comes, you are going to see exactly why no other relationship has worked out. I am fully confident that you have been set apart for someone who has a heart full of gold, but also a person that would give up every piece of gold for you. You have a very special heart and you deserve nothing less than a man that can love you the way you love.

MY BEST FRIEND

I love you and you deserve it. I am proud of the strong and fearless person you are. Your wild heart makes you worth more than you could ever imagine. All of this is how I see you, but most importantly I see you as the best friend I could ever dream of. Thank you for being the person you are. No boy is worth my best friend not seeing in herself what I see in her.

Xoxo,

Best Friend

AI music threatens creativity

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.
