My Mom Is The Best

She is the greatest at so many things.

My Mom Is The Best
Raven Stikes

1. Her Honesty

My mom is one of the most honest people I know and she isn't afraid to tell anyone the truth whether it hurts their feelings or not. She has always told my siblings and I the truth no matter how much we didn't want to hear it.

2. Her Humor

If there is one thing that my mom has it has to be humor. My mom has a ball-cracking jokes on my siblings, my dad, herself or me. My mom doesn't care where she is she will always find an opportunity to crack some type of joke on someone.

3. Her Perseverance

This one is huge because without my mom I don't think my siblings or I would have ever gotten any of those State projects done had she not helped or stayed up late to finish it for us because we mentioned it last minute.

4. Her Sarcasm

If there is one thing I mastered from my mom it is most definitely sarcasm. If you ask a irrelevant question it's more than likely to get a sarcastic answer from my mom no matter how much you wish she would take you serious.

5. Her Sacrifices

My mom has always sacrificed many things for my siblings and I happiness. Whether it be her sleep or her sanity. Because if there is one thing she disliked most, it would the times I did cheerleading.

6. Her Goofiness

My mom is extremely goofy and she has no problem admitting to it. She always knows just what to do to earn a laugh from me. I could be having a terrible day and my mom always finds a way to make me laugh whether it be messing with my siblings or cracking jokes on them.

7. Her Home-cooked Meals

Moving away to college has came with this huge perk. I never knew how much I missed her cooking than I did leaving for school. I cherish all the times she has sent me to school with her homemade sausage gravy. Not to mention coming home for break and getting to choose what we eat for dinner.

8. Her Determination

My mom has taught me many things but nothing has stuck to me more than watching her set her mind to something and never stray from it until she achieved it. Her determination sometimes can be fun to watch especially when she makes it her goal to bug my siblings and see how long it'll take for them to break and start to get irritated.

9. Her Obsession With "The Walking Dead"

It started out with my brother watching on Netflix then it turned into it becoming her show she enjoyed. The day she finished that show was fun to watch because she was determined to catch up so that she could watch the current season.

10. Her Open-Door Policy

If there is one thing I learned, it's that no matter who you were and no matter what you did you could come to my mom. My mom has always welcomed our friends to our home and treated them as one of her own and that even meant loving them like they were one of us. All of my friends have always told me that my mom was never just my mom; she was also their mom.

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.
