A open letter to my four legged friend.

Dear Clyde,

As I am writing this right now you are actually right in my ear playing with a stupid squeaky toy that I was dumb enough to give you. But, where do I begin. I have only had you for 7 short months. When I first got you I was so excited but, nervous at the same time. I really did not know if I was ready to take on the responsibility of taking care of a puppy because, you needed so much attention. You literally needed to be watched 24/7 like a little baby. Not only that but, I knew you were going to be expensive as well. Keeping a puppy happy and healthy is quite pricey. But, I was so happy to have you. You were my dog. No one else's. I got you all to my self.

I am not going to lie sometimes you REALLY get on my nerves. Like when you decide to act like a dog from hell. When you chew up my clothes, or happy pee everywhere and I mean everywhere. When you like to play fight when I am ready to go to bed. When you are wild as hell and run around in circles forever. Or when you want to be a winy baby and cry about everything. But through it all I still love you.

Even though you are really wild and BAD you still are the best puppy in the world. You have brought so much joy into my life. There is never a dull moment with you. You keep me on my toes. You keep me smiling. You really are my best friend. When I have a bad day, I always get to come home to you and you automatically cheer me up. You are always there to cuddle with me and love me.

Clyde getting you is one of the best decisions I have ever made. After I lost my other dog I really did not think I could ever love a dog as much as I did him but, I surprisingly I love you just as much. I dread the day that I ever have to put you to sleep or the day that you pass away. I really don't know what I will do with myself.

A huge shout out to Facebook for sharing you on my timeline. I am so glad your cute face popped up. But thank you Clyde for being my best friend. Thank you for always keeping me on my toes. Thank you for driving me insane. Thank you for being so silly and making me laugh. Thank you for still loving me after I have to fuss at you. Thank you for bringing so much joy into my life.

Love ya Clyde!

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.
