A Letter To The Best Mom Ever
Bebe Fashion

Dear Mommy,

Most people say they have the best mom ever. But I'm pretty convinced that I truly have the best mom on the planet. There's so much to thank you for that I honestly don't really know where to start, but I'm gonna try.

Thank you for taking care of me even when I can't remember it. I don't remember much from when I was a little kid, but one of the things that was always there was my mom. You were there at my awards ceremonies, my soccer games, hospital visits, plays, everything. Whatever I needed, you were always there and you always will be.

Thank you for loving me when I was in my awkward middle school years. Despite the unnecessary layers of black eyeliner, awful hairstyles, and ridiculous outfit choices, you were always smiling and supporting me. Irregardless of what boys I chased, the tantrums I threw over my first cell phone, or screaming that I hated you, you were always there with a warm hug and an I love you. No matter how I acted, you were always there and you always will be.

Thank you for being my rock in high school. Every tear I cried over a friendship or a stupid guy, you held me until I stopped. Every time I needed someone to celebrate my victories or support me through my failures, you were my #1 fan. There were probably times I didn't tell you the whole truth or lied straight to your face, but you loved me regardless. From taking my picture on the first day of high school to walking on my first college campus, you were always there and you always will be.

Thank you for being my best friend now. Despite all of the screaming matches, the disagreements, and the apologies, I'm glad we're so close now. You're the person I tell everything, and I've finally realized why girls love to call their moms everyday. You support every decision I make without any hesitation, and you tell me you love me every single day. I know I probably wasn't the ideal daughter for a couple of months or years, but you're with me now and I'm so thankful for that. I'll never be able to repay you for everything you've done for me, but I'll always try. You were always there and you always will be.

Love,

Your Daughter

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.
