I have recently been feeling out of place and feeling like I don't belong in the city which I now live. I have been missing my hometown more and more each day which is crazy to think about considering that I always dreamed of living in another city in another state.

Now that I'm three years into living hours away from my home, home, I have a busy life and schedule which means I can't make it back home as often as I should or want to. I have found that the best way for me to handle this is to have something that reminds me of home around me when I'm feeling like this.

One of my playlists are designed just for songs that remind me of home and I have spent hours perfecting the playlist to include only songs that remind me of home. Here are my favorite 13 country songs that remind me of home:

1. "Home And A Hometown" by Hannah Ellis

I always listen to this song when I'm missing being in surrounded by country life. I know that no matter how much I miss my hometown and living in the country, my home will always be in a city. Plus I use this song to explain that to other people who don't get it.

2. "Make Em Proud" by Luke Pell

When I miss home I listen to this to remind me that everyone in my support system back home are always cheering for me to succeed. I'm always reminded that I'm doing great things and that no matter what they are always there for me.

3. "Anything Like Me" by Adam Sanders

Sometimes I feel like I don't fit in with my life away from home and I don't feel like anyone gets me. I listen to this song to remind that there are people that get me and are like me back home.

4. "The Way I Talk" by Morgan Wallen

I have this song on repeat most of the time because I know that I say words differently and say phrases that none of my friends have ever heard of. I start to miss home even more when this happens and this song helps me feel more at home.

5. "Where I'm From" by Jason Michael Carroll

I have added to my playlist because something about this song feels familiar to me and comforts me when I'm missing home.

6. "I'm From The Country" by Tracy Byrd

A basic explanation of home home for me and makes me miss home less.

7. "Simple Town" by Walker Montgomery

This song is chalk full of songs that remind me of home and I can relate to so many things in this song.

8. "Small Town USA" by Justin Moore

I'm reminded of the slower-paced life that is lived back home and I feel a lot better when I'm overwhelmed with the faster-paced life that I'm now living.

9. "Something to Be Proud Of" by Montgomery Gentry

I'm reminded of stories passed down and memories made spent with family.

10. "Where I Come From" by Montgomery Gentry

Another basic explanation of home and I can relate so much which is why I listen to it.

11. "Farm Girl" by High Valley

12. "Backroad Song" by Granger Smith

I'm reminded of summer days and nights spent driving back roads and full of good memories with friends and family.

13. "You'll Always Find Your Way Back Home" by Hannah Montana

One of the best songs to round out the songs to listen to when you miss home. I feel so much better after listening to this when I miss home.

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

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.

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.
