A Love Letter To Tacos

Some people live for the weekends. I live for Taco Tuesdays.

Dear Tacos,

I don't even know where to begin with you, my wonderfully spicy bundle of deliciousness. I guess I should start by explaining just how much you mean to me. You know how some people live for the weekends? Or can't wait until Thirsty Thursday finally rolls around? Well, not me! My favorite day of the week is Taco Tuesday, because I'm guaranteed to enjoy my favorite meal.

I'm sure at times you feel undervalued, with so many people boasting about burgers and parading around pizza. But you should know that you truly are second to none. It takes a special type of food to be able to be able to go with the ultimate snack food- chips and salsa- but you do just that and more! You are even able to rock chips and guac! Pizza and burgers have got NOTHING on you, my beloved tacos. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise!

I would like to thank you for being my #1 go-to support system. Somehow you're always able to sense my mood and adjust yourself accordingly. I'm feeling sad and discouraged? There you are with a comforting soft shell filled with perfectly seasoned chicken blanketed by salsa with just enough kick to remind me that life will get better. And those days when I'm bursting with joy and ready to celebrate? You're ready with a crunchy hard shell, spicy ground beef, and a plethora of glorious toppings that form a party in my mouth. And when I convince myself that I need to attempt to eat healthy? (LOL I know what a joke, right?!) There you are again, presenting yourself as a taco salad and making my guilt disappear with each bite of crunchy lettuce. Seriously, I don't know how I would get through life without you!

If you haven't caught on by now, dearest tacos, I really, truly love you. Not a week goes by that I'm not dragging my friends to a Mexican restaurant for dinner, or googling a new place to try you at. And while I do have my favorite restaurants to enjoy you at, I have yet to find a taco I won't eat. That in itself, I believe, is a testament to your greatness.

So to conclude, oh tacos my true love, I would simply like to thank you for spicing up my life when it was feeling a little bland. Loving you has become a big part of who I am, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Keep doing what you're doing, and I'll see ya soon at our next Taco Tuesday date night!

Love,

The Biggest Taco Fan Ever

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.
