To the man who will someday marry my best friend,

Take it from me, I know. She's got something special, and I don't blame you for falling head over heels for her. She's beautiful, funny, smart, and has everything any girl could want. Including a guy who loves her to the moon and back. And I'm so happy that she's happy.

But please, don't let her fall. She's been through so much, and is unbelievably strong. She's been to hell and back, and I never want to see her in pain. So please, take care of her. Love her even when she's a mess. Wipe the tears off her cheeks. Pick her up when she falls. And most importantly, please don't hurt her.

I know her better than anyone else, and I know she can be a handful. When she's angry, she's fierce. When she's sad, she's quiet. And when she's got something on her mind, God, you're gonna know it. She's going to call you out on your mistakes, and won't hesitate to tell you exactly where you went wrong. Cherish it. Because you won't find anything like it anywhere else.

Don't take her for granted. She's wholeheartedly in love with you, and is eager to show you off to the world. Please don't use her. She wants to be unapologetically in love, and wants the same from you. She is the most loyal and trusting girl in your life. Please don't change that about her.

She's the same girl that stood by my side through high school drama, helped me through the worst parts of my life, shared college gossip over coffee, and never failed to put a smile on my face. Now it's your turn to look after her. Please don't run when things get tough.

She deserves the world. So if you're out there, please, take it from me.

Love,

Her Lifelong 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.
