An Open Letter To The Person Who Marries My Best Friend
Odyssey

Dear BFF's boo,

First, I am so happy that you two have found each other. It fills my heart to see that someone else sees the joy and wonder that makes my best friend special. I hope that your future is filled with love and that neither of you ever feel lonely. As you can tell, my best friend means a lot to me. So I hope that you cherish and love them as much as I do. But this is about the relationship between you and I. We both already agree that our mutual acquaintance is the best thing since sliced bread.

In an age where dating is basically part of the past, marriage is mostly looked at as a death sentence. I want to take this opportunity to look at this as a positive situation. I am not losing best friend to a marriage, I am extending my love and support to you as well. You are an extension of them once you are married, so you're basically a best friend 2.0, right?

Congratulations, you are in love with seriously the best person to ever grace this earth. You have very good taste. Welcome to the family. I can not wait to create even richer memories filled with love and laughter with you as well.

I am excited to see you two grow and accomplish goals together. The new adventures ahead of you are sure to be wild. I hope you are the calm to the storm as I once was. OUR Best friend is the wild one, so I hope you keep them grounded when needed. With that being said, please, let them soar as well. It may seem crazy in the moment, but that's when I learned the most from them. That's when we made the best memories; I am overjoyed that you now to get to experience their glimmer.

You are now married to a very strong personality. Even when they are being a strong force on the outside, I swear, they have a calm ocean center. On the inside they are soft and compassionate. My advice to you is to look past the wall that they may put up. You will see them cry at sad movies and dreams they once had. Love them and hold them because our BFF is two different people at 2 pm and 2 am. Just a side note, a glass of wine doesn't hurt at either time.

You will see when our best friend loves, they love hard. Just like everything else they do, they will do it with full force. They will stand by you until the end of time and I really hope that you can share that with them as well. Because, you know as well as I do, that's what they deserve.

Sincerely,

Your new best friend.

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.
