An Open Letter to My Best Friend

You have made my life such an experience.

My junior year of high school, having my best friend move was one of my hardest battles. There were no longer going to be random car rides, day trips, after school dates, etc. We spent so many restless hours together & made so many memories.

Because you left, there was a new bond we made.

Thank you for all you do.

Thank you for pushing. Without you constantly pushing me to be a better woman, I would not be half of who I am today. You have stuck by my side while you are 800 miles away.

I know it is hard to be there for someone who physically can't be there. We face our own demons. We struggle but we always find a way to take time out of the day to check on each other.

Thank you for traveling. Having a best friend who you travel with is better than anything in the world.You making anything possible means everything to me. We have traveled together since you moved away.

Thank you for coming to visit for every mile stone. You made it a point to see me go off to prom, graduate, my 18th birthday, my sisters 30th. I appreciate you being involved in my life.

The effort you put into our friendship is so refreshing because you do everything in your power to keep me happy. I have had friends who left me in the dust but you continue to pick me up.

You are such an amazing young woman. I could not be anymore blessed to call you my best friend. Each and every day I am so grateful with how much of a sweet, caring best friend I have. You are so talented & so filled with God it's breath taking.

Never ever leave my life because I would be lost with out you. I love you a latte Best Friend.

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.
