Your world either shines as bright as the sun or fades into the darkest of seas.

When You Love With All Of Your Heart, This Is What Happens To You

Loving with all of your heart. Seems like someone everyone does at some point or another right?

Wrong.

Loving with all of your heart isn’t the same as just loving someone or something. Loving with all of your heart is giving the wrong person that love. It’s giving that wrong person that love, even knowing they don’t deserve it. It’s loving that person despite knowing that they’re just going to hurt you again.

Loving with all of your heart is giving someone a million and two chances, knowing they haven’t changed, but hoping they did. Loving with all of your heart is getting high hopes, yet getting let down and not being surprised. And while you’re not surprised, you’re still hurt…

Loving with all of your heart, is never telling someone no. It’s taking on too many things at once and letting yourself get overwhelmed with responsibility because you just have to be there for everyone. It’s knowing you need to focus on yourself and putting yourself first but putting everyone else before yourself anyway.

Loving with all of your heart is a balancing act.

A balancing act between madly in love and a shattered heart. You are either on cloud nine or in an empty sea of nothing.

Loving with all of your heart is being there for anyone and everyone. Always being that shoulder to cry on without asking for a thing in return. But later finding yourself crying on your own shoulder and desperately and secretly praying for that shoulder in return.

Loving with all of your heart gives you a whole new side to the word pain. Your heart constantly breaking, from higher expectations that you just can’t bring down.

Loving with all of your heart gives you a whole new side to the word love. Giving your all and feeling a kind of happiness that people only see in fairytales. Where you can smile at absolutely nothing and be in a constant content state of joy.

Loving with all of your heart is one of the greatest gifts in the world. You may experience some of the darkest of nights, but nothing is more worth that darkness than seeing the breathtaking sunrise after it ends.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
