Letting Go Is Hard, But This Playlist Makes It Easier

Sometimes the best way to be happy is to learn to let go of things that you tried too hard to hold onto that are no longer good for you.

Letting go of someone you care about, no matter the circumstance is never easy. Relationships fall apart all the time, for whatever reason. It’s important to face the facts and remember that you can’t change the past no matter how much it hurt you.

Relationships end all the time, and sometimes it’s simply beyond the control of either party. People are complicated beings, we all have conflicting, ever-changing desires, hopes, and expectations. In the midst of everything, we tend to get lost in the game of who hurt who first, alongside perpetuating anger and sadness. At some point, you have to let go of the blame, pick yourself up, and live your life.

There’s a lot of things you can do to mend your broken heart, but I’m sure everyone can agree that one of the best ways is to jam out to a break up song or 20. Whether you’re flying down the highway, singing at the top of your lungs or crying on your bathroom floor, music will help you.

Luckily for you, I’ve come up with the perfect playlist. Wipe away your tears and enjoy!

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

StableDiffusion

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.

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.
