Dear Future Husband,

I continuously open my Facebook page and see someone new get engaged, and thinking about that scares me because it’s a sign of growing up. But what doesn’t scare me is the thought of you, my future husband, whomever you may be.

First off, I want to say thank you for accepting me for who I am. Whether it's my farting too much, having weird pet peeves, or the fact that I am obsessed with my pets, thank you for never thinking I’m strange. Thank you for always having a secret stash of my favorite food to give to me in the middle of the night when I have weird cravings. And thank you for being up to go through the drive-thru just because of a cheeseburger craving.

I also want to thank you for never letting me go, or letting me push you away, no matter how hard I try. Know that I will do the same for you. No matter what disagreement we might have, thank you for putting me in my place when needed, as well as having the courage to admit when you might be wrong. I am not the type of person who ever plans on getting divorced, so no matter the problem, I know we will get through it.

Just know that I am forever grateful that you waltzed into my life. You know the phrase “love comes into your life when you least expect it?” Well, you proved that to be true. You also proved my insane ideals of a perfect man to be true. I grew up on Disney princess movies, so thank you for accepting my obsession with Cinderella and Prince Charming, and for being my own, real-life version of Prince Charming.

You are my best friend, and nothing will ever change that. No matter how mad I seem to be, it probably won’t last long. Best friends fight, right? Best friends also share all their faults and accept each other no matter what. So never be afraid to be yourself around me, because obviously I love you for who you are (I mean, we’re married, and it doesn’t get any more serious than that).

I’m not the type of girl who expects big romantic gestures, because if you truly love me, I’ll know. I love the little things, whether it's that you put a blanket on me when I fall asleep on the couch, make me something as simple as a sandwich for dinner, or even sit through "The Bachelor" with me pretending that you are interested in who he picks. I don’t need a dozen roses, chocolates, or expensive jewelry. I just need you.

Most importantly, thank you for showing me what love is. I hope I can do the same for you.

With all my love,

Your Future Wife

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.
