National Women's Friendship Day began in 1999 thanks to the Kappa Delta Sorority. This holiday, while not necessarily recognized by the United States government as a national holiday, is an opportunity to extend gratitude to the women who support us through thick and thin, lift us up during our highs, hold our hands during our lows, and so much more.

I have a lot of women in my life that have helped me get to where I am today, women whom I don't know what I'd do without. Here are eight ways to celebrate all those awesome women in your life!

1. Hugs

A hug is a great way to express love and gratitude, and you never know which of your friends might need one!

2. Post-it notes

If you live with some girls you are very grateful for, leave little notes around your home reminding them of how amazing they are and how much they mean to you.

3. Send a card

A sweet and handwritten note can go a long way to remind your friends how important they are!

4. Call them

One of my favorite things to do while I am away from home is call my mom, who is my best girl friend ever. It always makes me feel better and closer to home.

5. Send a cute text

Nothing makes me smile like a sweet and heartfelt text from someone I haven't heard from in a while.

6. Pray

If you are into praying, now is a great opportunity to thank whoever you pray to for all the amazing women they have blessed your life with. I know that on this National Women's Friendship Day I will be thanking God and talking to all the strong women from my life who have passed on.

7. Flowers

Everyone loves to get flowers!

8. Brunch

Brunch is just a cute and fun way to get your girl gang together and celebrate the fact that you all get to be in each other's lives.

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.

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.
