To My Current Self

Your greatest blessings will sometimes come in letting go what's familiar and being willing to accept that which is here to take you to the next level.

Dear Self,

I want you to know that you are the best you've ever been and the worst you’ll ever be again. Each day is a new opportunity to grow and challenge yourself to be better than you've been and to do more than you've ever done. You are necessary. No, not necessary for the future, necessary for the NOW!

The Greatness you have inside of you can and will change many lives right now, if only you would begin to live your best life. Everyday you have the opportunity to live your best life by changing the way you see things and changing your mindset. You are more than enough. Everything you are is just right for you.

You never, ever have to compare yourself to your friends, family, foes, etc. You are worth every bit of Love that you give out to others. You may not always receive it and that’s okay, but when your life is blessed with people who love you unconditionally with no strings attached, embrace them.

Never allow your past hurt to hinder you from moving forward. You are a gift to not only the future but you’re a gift to the present as well. Continue to allow your smile to light up every room, your hugs to be filled with so much love and your presence to Make a difference.

You are still useful even in this state you're in right now. There is nothing wrong with this place you're in right now. No, you aren’t at your final destination but this place is just as meaningful as your purpose-filled destination.Trust God’s plan for your life fully! Never undermine the power you hold.

You are powerful beyond measure! Never let anyone or anything take the power you have away from you. You can change the world right now just by being an advocate of change and justice for things that matter to you. Life is not measured by the minutes but rather by the moments... unforgettable memories.

Make each moment count. You’ll find that one day those moments will be all you have left to remember. Don't be afraid of loss for it is just as much a part of the process as gain.

Your greatest blessings will sometimes come in letting go what's familiar and being willing to accept that which is here to take you to the next level. Keep shooting for the Stars and Chasing your dreams. Your Success depends on you! I Love everything about you! Always remember you are the most important portion of your life!

With Love,

Me

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.
