A Letter To My Little Sister

Dear Little Sister,

I love you. I've loved you since the day I met you. You gave me something I never thought I would ever have: the ability to be a big sister. You've allowed me to be a big sister for most of my life and I have loved nothing more. I know we fight sometimes and sometimes we don't agree, but I love being your older sister. I love being able to help you along in life, even if sometimes you won't let me. I love watching you grow and change into your own person. When we were kids, people used to joke that we were twins or that you were older and I was younger. You are 100% your own person and I love who you are.

Thinking about life with you brings a smile to my face every single time. Some of my fondest childhood memories (actually most of them) have also involved you. You're someone I always know will be there, even after others have left. We may be completely different personalities, but we are always sisters, and the fact that you are different from me is one of the things I love most about you.

You are beautiful, kind, incredibly funny, and unbelievably gifted. It has brought me so much joy to watch you grow up into the amazing, beautiful, talented person that you have become. I know we aren't as close as we could be, but I also know that I am always here for you no matter what. I would walk through fire for you if I could. You mean more to me than words could ever describe. I will always have your back and I will always love you. I will always be your biggest cheerleader, your shoulder to cry on, and your confidante when you mess up and need someone to vouch for you.

I can't wait to see where life takes you. I can't wait to watch you get a big girl job, get married, and have beautiful kids. I can't wait to grow old with you, swapping stories about our lives when we were kids and memories of our time together growing up.

I hope you get everything you want in life. I hope you have the best life ever. I want the best for you. I always have, and I always will.

Keep being awesome, Little Sis. I will keep cheering you on, forever and always. I love you.

Love,

Big Sister

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.
