Don't Lose Your Faith

You have prayed every day. You have tossed and turned throughout the night. You have cried yourself to sleep wondering why this has happened to you. You have spent countless nights staring at the ceiling wondering if your prayers are being heard. You are wondering what you did wrong and where God has gone.You consistently ask if he can hear you and you’re left without an answer. Your hope is starting to fade away. You don’t see a point in trying anymore. The only thing that you can think about is every negative thing that might happen to you. You start to think that maybe you might not get the healing you want. You can no longer see the light and you want everything to be over with.

Don’t give up.

You have so many people in your corner rooting for you. You have so much love and support from everyone around you. You have an amazing family who loves seeing the sparkle in your eyes when you talk about the things that you love. Don’t let that sparkle fade. Keep the amazing faith that everyone knows you have. Faith will keep you going throughout the day. When you keep your faith, you will be able to rejoice in the most beautiful and simple things that He has made. God has promised to give you hope and a future. He has promised to give great rewards for the ones who have given their lives to him. He will never leave your side.

God has a timeline set for you. Quit worrying about what isn’t happening and start preparing for the amazing things that God has planned for you. He has never lost his faith in you, so don’t start losing your faith in him. Follow God through the darkest caves and believe that he will lead you through any and all obstacles.

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.
