I would love to have my wallet in my hands again

An Open Letter To The Person Who Stole My Wallet
Target

Dear whom ever stole my wallet,

I just wanted to start out by saying thank you. I don't think you understand all the trouble I have had to go through to replace everything in my wallet. A month after you stole my wallet, I am still trying to replace everything that was in there. Although there are some things I am not able to replace, ever. My wallet was my life. It carried not only money, but memories and who I am. When you stole my wallet you stole a piece of me. I hope you are making good use out of it, there was no money in there... so what did you really get out of stealing my wallet? A ring my siblings gave me as a graduation gift? My credit and debit cards that were canceled before you could steal any money from me? My license? My school ID? My friends' graduation pictures? And the list goes on... You have no use to any of these things. Unless you do, please, I would love to know what use you have for these things.

What was your motive for stealing my wallet? Mine particularly. It's not like my wallet was dropped, it was in a private place, inside more of my belongings. Why target me? I am a broke college student that has no money, what did you think was going to come from this? Sell the wallet, make an easy $10? Once you saw there was no money, why not put it back? You got a whole dollar and some pennies... WOW! YOU HIT THE JACKPOT!

Replacing everything in my wallet cost me more than what that wallet was worth. I've spent around $70 replacing everything in that wallet, and what did you get out of it? A dollar and some change.

I just want to say, if you stole my wallet and reading this, please hand it over. Or at least hand over the picture, and the other personal belongings. It would mean the world to me. For the past month, I have been running it through my head where it could be.

Sincerely,

A girl who is going crazy wondering where her wallet is

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

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.
