To My Best Friend On Her Wedding Day

This is a list of things I didn't get to tell you that day.

Dear Maddy,

Spending Sunday with you and attending your wedding was the best way I could have spent my day.

I love you!

I'm so happy for you and for your new husband and proud that you two decided to take that step in life together and follow your hearts.

People will say that you're too young to be married and that you have your whole life ahead of you to find love. But I know you've found your happily ever after and I couldn't wish more for you.

You are my best friend and no matter what I'll always be there for you when you need me.

So to you, on your wedding day, (and you better believe I'll be quoting this when you have your big fancy wedding):

Since we met about four years ago, I knew you would be my best friend. You truly created a monster. I was so shy and quiet and then you appeared. Your short, purple haired, loudly opinionated self. We have way too many memories to laugh at to ever stop calling the other "best friend". From selling our children on the black market in order to buy a bigger house to getting signed photos from bands because you know I wanted them.

We went to Homecoming together and I got to dance with my best friend. The sleepovers where we devoured bags of Doritos and my nephew Alduin sleeping on my hip. I got to watch you develop in life, I saw your heartbreak and heal again. Dancing around the room to Fergalicious and falling into doors because gravity is rude.

I saw the look in your eye when you came home from work and told me about your future husband. You didn't know it yet, but he would become your world. Through the texts and screenshots you've sent my way, you two made a path together and followed it. You two are beautiful together and I know your future will be wonderful. I love you both.

Congratulations, best friend.

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.
