A Letter To My Long Distance Best Friend
Bestfriend Goalz

Dear best friend,

Thank you for staying by my side all these years and still loving me for who I am, weird corks and all. I know you’re hundreds of miles away, but I know that I can count on you for anything at any time. For that, I am grateful.

We have shared many memories, from living under the same roof, to living hours apart. You know my life better than anyone else and I am thankful to have such a loyal friend like you in my life.

I know we don’t text every day, but I think that is what makes our friendship so valuable. We could go a week or two without talking but pick up right where we left off. We are complete opposites, but alike in so many ways.

Thank you for listening to me cry about stupid things and always being a phone call away. Thank you for surprising me at times and letting me sleep in your bed whenever I get lonely. Thank you for loving my crazy-self and defending me at all costs. Thank you for keeping it real with me, especially when I need to hear it.

Thank you for sharing your family with me and letting me come over even when you’re not home just so I can eat your good snacks and snuggle with your little brother and sister when I need some comfort. Thank you for understanding my ways and not questioning my actions. Thank you for being silent when I just need someone to listen to me and thank you for speaking when I need to be spoken to.

There aren’t very many people I would be able to live with, share the same bed with, and grow up with, besides you. I can’t wait to share our beautiful memories with our children and their children.

I hope you know how much I appreciate our friendship and that I will cherish the relationship we have forever. Thank you for being the best long distance best friend I could ever ask for.

With love,

Your best friend

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.
