One day someone will come into your life and you won't remember how you lived without them.

You will finally understand why it never worked out with anyone else. You won't be able to explain it, but this person will take you to a place no one else can. In your lifetime, there will be two different people coming into your heart like that — the love of your life and your soulmate.

Even though you might think they are the same, the reality is they are completely different.

The love of your life will be the one who comes into your heart unannounced, and they will invade all your thoughts, your emotions, your wishes, and all your senses. You will love them like you never loved before, and after them, you will never love the same again. This love will determine a before and after in your life. The relationship will end because one of you will have suffered enough, and both of you will continue your lives separately. Yet, you will always have each other in your hearts because the love you both share will be the purest love that either of you will ever experience.

Later, your soulmate will come into your life. They will heal all the wounds that the love of your life left behind.

Your soulmate is the one who will make you believe in love again, the one who will show you where your heart is. With time, they will earn your trust and will help you move forward. Your soulmate will be the person you always imagined and wished for. You won't think or wonder if they are the one. They will be the last person you think of at night, the one you want to share all your achievements with, the one who will lift you up when you're down, and the one you can't live without. They will be your life companion, your rock, your destiny, the one you will love forever.

These two people will define vastly different parts of your life — one will stay in your heart, the other in your life.

A legend says we are all born with a red thread invisibly tied to the person we will love forever. It doesn't matter the time, the place, or the circumstances. This thread will stretch, shrink, and tangle, but it will never break.

My question is, who do you think holds this string — the love of your life or your soulmate?

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.

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.
