To The Mom Who Gives Me The World
Sara Durphy

Mom,

Let me start off by telling you how truly proud of you I am and how proud I am to be your daughter. In the past three years you have broken so many boundaries and made me so proud. You have done broad street twice going on three times this year (I am so excited to take part in this with you). You ran not only one but two half marathons, broad street and a 10k within four months. When I came to Disney and watched you cross the finish line at the Princess half marathon I was so proud of you. Then next thing I know you did Tinker Bell in Disneyland not even four months later and only a week after broad street.

Just to show how amazing my mom is here are all the medals from the races that she has done. As well as her bibs from all of her races. Just a look at some of the medals that she has; Broad Street 2016 and 2017, Star Wars Dark Side 10k 2017, Mickeys Virtual Running Shorts, Mickeys Wine and Dine 5k, Hot Chocolate 15k and more!!


Not only have you made me proud with running but you make me proud to be your daughter in general. I know that we argue and sometimes I can be a lot to handle but I still appreciate you and everything that you do for me. I know that no matter how much we argue you will still have my back.

You have also taught me so many things. You always seem to be right about everything. Like every time you tell me how you do not like someone and do not think they are a good friend in the end you are always right. I know that even though I do not always listen to you that you still always end up being right. So maybe I should take my own advice to Jack and start listening to what you have to say.

I also want to thank you. Thank you for sharing your love for Disney with me. You brought me to Disney growing up and worked so hard so that we could go on those trips and I am so appreciative of that. Thank you for always bringing me places and taking me shopping. Going shopping with you is always fun because you pick out and know my fashion sense better than I do. Thank you for letting me see the world. You have taken me to many places. You took me on cruises and to Cancun, Canada and all over the bahamas. Thank you for allowing me to travel overseas to Greece. You have never even been to Europe and you allowed me to travel over there by myself and get the experiene of a lifetime.

Most importantly, Thank you for being my mom.

Love,

Sara

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.
