An Open Letter To: The Girl Who Stole My Heart
Little Bits of Everything

To the Girl Who Stole my Heart,

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 says:

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.' What more can I say. You took my heart from the day we first talked. You were my best friend. The saying "you'll marry your best friend" is true. I hope to marry you one day. I pray to God that it will happen. You said it yourself, "if we're meant to be, it'll happen."

I believe that quote with my whole heart. You haven't had the best of luck with guys, I get that. However, not every guy is bad. Most of them are good. There's been fights, and there's been heartbreak. But there's been a mended heart. My heart (or what's left of it) is in your possession. All I've ever wanted was to be loved. That's all I've ever needed. I dream of the day we're together forever. I don't want anyone else. No one else compares. When you're young, love stinks. Especially when you and I want the same things, but we have different ways of attaining them. That doesn't matter. As long as you and I are together, it'll all be okay.

I would like to use this as an example for everyone out there. Everyone who is single, in a relationship, etc. You may think you will never find the one or the one you're with isn't the one. That may or may not be true. Everyone finds the one. But don't give up on someone you're with because of little things like arguments or disagreements. Talk it out. Cry, hug, kiss, stay silent. You do you. However you CONSTRUCTIVELY handle things, do that. She might be mad because you stayed out too late, or because you looked at another girl, or because you and her weren't dating and you misinterpreted and screwed up. Forget all of that.

Remember the A.M.L.F. (Apologize, Make Up, Listen, Forget.) these things happen. Remember, you're binded by love. Remember how to make her smile. Remember how to keep her happy. But most of all, remember to love her.

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.
