Dear future husband,

I hope you don't mind that I am a thief of the blankets, and I have to keep the fan on when I go to sleep (even if it's freezing). Hopefully, you like the smell of coffee early in the morning and don't mind the fact that by marrying me you agreed to be lifelong Netflix-watching partners. I will probably leave the lamp on long after you fall asleep because I love to read late at night. You will definitely be forced to go grocery shopping with me, and you'll have to decide where we go to eat because I'm so indecisive.

I can't wait to meet your family, but even more than that, to become our own family. I am so excited to watch you lead the family that we create. I hope you don't mind getting a real Christmas tree -- I love the way that they smell. I am SO looking forward to the memories and traditions we will get to make!

I promise to try and support every decision that you make, even if I don't agree because I know that you are always going to do what is best for our family. I promise to choose you and keep choosing you every day of my life, even if sometimes I don't feel like it. I promise that I will never put our relationship before my relationship with Jesus. I promise to serve and to love you. I promise to pray for you and with you, always. I promise to acknowledge the fact that you are a human being and you make mistakes. I promise to forgive, to listen, to cry with, to honor, and to do whatever I can to further the Kingdom with you by my side.

I am SO flipping excited to meet you! I can't wait to read our Bibles together, to pray together, to take those family pictures where our clothes are color coordinated (just kidding), and to watch you serve Jesus. I just can't wait to live every day with you!

XOXO,

Your future wife

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.
