I Love You, I'm Sorry

From the moment I met you I knew I wanted to call you mine. You were everything I've ever wanted. I never thought it was possible for me to find someone so good.

After my birthday in January, I was sad a lot. I just felt like I was walking on a never ending path that led to nowhere. I was ashamed of who I was and how much I changed. I'd seek momentary forms of happiness. I was trying to distract myself from my sadness anyway I could. I was bored. I was sad. I was eager for a change. And then I met you.

You were the only person that was able to make me forget about my sadness and my past. I fell really hard for you. I wanted to talk to you all the time. I wanted to hold your hand and go on walks. I wanted to listen to your stories. I wanted to hear your laugh. I wanted to hug you when I saw you outside my dorm. And most importantly, I didn't want you to see me for who I was before. I wanted to be as perfect as you were to me. I just wanted to move on. I wanted to start over.

And I thought if you new who I was a few months ago, you wouldn't want to be with me or take me seriously. And I wanted to be serious with you. Even if it was scary and new. I wouldn't have wanted to be serious with anyone else.

You often ask me why I choose to be with you. And the truth is you're the most amazing person I've ever met. When I'm with you I feel my entire body relaxing. You make me feel at home. I'm not afraid to be myself. I like telling you stories and I love hearing yours. I can trust you with my secrets and I can trust you with my heart. You make me want to laugh, smilie, and cry tears of joy all at the same time. I could just be sitting next to you in a boring biology lecture, but I would still have fun. I could be with you 24/7 for days and never get bored or annoyed with you.You've exposed me to things I never thought I'd experience or like. I like who I am with you.

And from the moment I met you, all I wanted to do was protect you. I wanted to love you and hold you. I was never trying to hurt you. And seeing you so sad pains me, because all I've ever wanted was to make you happy. I'm sorry for failing you. I'm sorry for hurting your heart. I would do anything to heal it. I'm really trying my hardest. You're the greatest thing that has ever walking into my life. You're my main source of happiness. You're my future.

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.
