My High School Sweetheart, There Is Hope

I still pray for you.

My High School Sweetheart, There Is Hope
Hannah Hinson

To my high school sweetheart,

I want you to know that after many months of heartbreak I am finally okay with how things ended. Sure, there are days where I miss you and I miss the memories of us and wishing that I could go back, but I soon realize that you were not made for me and I was not made for you. You see, once everything ended, I went through a very dark time in my life and God pulled me out. If it was not for you, I would not be where I am in my walk with God today. I have a much more intimate relationship with Christ and it may come off as offensive, but I am much better off without you, as you are much better off without me.

I had to really learn to heal myself before I could start my personal dreams and goals. Maybe I am still recovering from heartbreak, but I know that God has someone out there that was specifically made just for me.

God has a special woman created just for you. You will love her even more then you loved me because this time it will work out for you. I pray that you stand guarded so you can protect her with all of your will. I pray that you will make a great husband to whoever you end up with. One thing I know is that the two of us did come together in the beginning, but we are not each other's end.

I know I will be able to love again because first I loved God and He is the one who holds me every night when I feel alone. Please do not worry about me because God is working in another man's life to be able to handle mine. If I could make one request, I would ask you that when you see me or see pictures of me and whoever I end up with, do not feel jealousy. Why? Because I was not meant for you. I was not meant to make you happy.

What happened during our relationship will always be what I tell my future children when they ask me about my high school days. I will tell them how happy I was and how sad I was to see it end. You inspire me, even to this day, to chase after God. I will always thank you for everything you did for me in our time together.

If you ever need anything, I am always one message away. Please allow me to be your last resort though because I hope you turn to your future person, and more importantly, God. So, yes I still pray for you because that is what gives me peace at night knowing how badly things turned out.

Love,

Your high school sweetheart

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.
