Frankenstein's Monster

Even though you may be different, you are a master piece made by our Creator.

Frankenstein's Monster
Shelbie Cohen

I am called Monster.

Isn’t that what I really am? Who can know me well enough to call me Monster?

I look around alone and secluded. No one can get past my monstrosity. They just call me Monster.

My creator abandons me. I flee from his sight. Am I not his Adam? No. I am his Monster.

I look around and see them living life. They may not be rich, but they might not see me as a Monster.

Take a chance. What can I lose? He won’t see me as the Monster.

They saw me. Not what I hoped. I will go in search. For I will find someone who doesn’t think I am a Monster.

I took a chance. Heaven knows I am not a Monster.

In Frankenstein, a monster is created. Is he really a monster though? He is a misunderstood creature and rejected by everyone because he is different.

The Creature is brought to life by Frankenstein. He was a creation like no other. His life brought about through lightning was monumental, and yet he was not viewed as a master piece but a monster.

He was abandoned by his creator and rejected by society. He was a scary monster that wreaked havoc throughout the book. He was isolated and lonely. His difference from humans was the factor that made him so isolated and shunned by everyone.

If you are different, don't let others bring you down because you are don't blend into the crowd. Know that your Creator is not like Frankenstein. He never abandons you or turns His back to you. He made you with intent and His design was perfect. Your creator loves you and made you His master piece.

Even if you feel you have fallen far from grace and you feel abandoned by your Creator, know that your Creator is always there and will always accept you with open arms.

You will never become the Creator's monster.

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.
