A Letter To My Cats On Their 2nd Birthday
Aaliyah Pina

Dear Tiger and Midnight,

Happy birthday to the loves of my life! I know that you guys probably don’t understand the importance of your birthday, but it’s a very special day, and it involves good food and gifts. I know gifts wrapped in wrapping paper are your absolute favorite. I hope you like the gifts I got this year, and enjoy your cake. Your birthday was the day you two were born. Even though I got you two when you guys were 5 months old, I’m beyond blessed to have been able to celebrate two birthdays with you both.

Even though you’re turning 2, you’re still my babies! You guys are changing right before my eyes. It makes me sad that you’re no longer the small kittens you once were, but watching you guys grow up makes me happy. Your meows are changing and now sound different, and you're getting more adventurous and daring by jumping on top of our fridge and glass curio cabinet. You guys are more emotional by making it very clear when you’re unhappy, and making it visible when you’re happy.

A lot has happened in these past two years that we are celebrating. You saw me complete my freshmen and sophomore year of college, and FaceTimed me when I was vacationing in Florida. I made an Instagram for you two, you helped me get better when I had the flu, you guys got me through life’s trials and tribulations... this list can go on forever.

June 15th is your special day, so I am going to make sure we enjoy it. I pray that we celebrate many more birthdays together. Being your mom makes me the happiest girl in the world. You guys make my life better, my days brighter, and my world is complete when I’m with you two.

Love,

Your Mom

P.S. I know you two can’t read so I’ll just read it to you.

P.S.S I love you so much!

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.
