After having a brief discussion with a friend about what love truly was, I was inspired to create a list of what love means to me!

1. Love is helping someone as much as you can because you want to.

2. Love is finding a cute hoodie in a clothing store but giving it to your best friend because you know that she'd want it more than you.

3. Love is recommending songs to your friends because you know they'll like them.

4. Love is driving for an hour to bring your friend boba tea because she'd never had it before and absolutely needed to try it.

5. Love is texting or calling someone when something you see reminds you of them.

6. Love is remembering what someone told you ages ago because you didn't want to forget.

7. Love is giving thoughtful gifts opposed to expensive ones.

8. Love is buying food for someone and telling them they don't have to pay you back.

9. Love is writing long and meaningful cards.

10. Love is comfortable silence.

11. Love is staying up till midnight to wish your best friends happy birthday.

12. Love is crying because of how proud you are of your best friend.

13. Love is being honest when you know the truth can hurt.

14. Love is bringing your friend chocolate after a breakup.

15. Love is saying "see you soon."

16. Love is developing the same pet peeves as your best friend.

17. Love is prioritizing someone over everyone else.

18. Love is accepting and understanding every flaw you see in a person.

19. Love is checking in on your friends.

20. Love is putting away your homework to help a friend who's going through a tough time.

21. Love is standing up for someone.

22. Love is when you do something with the same person over and over but it never gets old.

23. Love is bringing your friend Taco Bell because she's not feeling her best.

24. Love is supporting someone wholeheartedly.

25. Love is thinking about someone every day when you know you can't talk to them.

26. Love is wanting someone to succeed.

27. Love is never being afraid of messing up in front of someone.

28. Love is talking for hours.

29. Love is hyping up your friends.

30. Love is performing on stage but only looking for one person in the audience because you know they're there.

31. Love is showing, not telling.

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.

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.
