A Open Letter To A Friend

Open this letter and try to indulge yourself in my mind.

A Open Letter To A Friend
Deonandan.com

First, I want to start off saying thank you for being my friend. Anybody who truly knows me knows that I'm a real funny guy, love to have fun, and always see the brighter side of things, even when times are dark. I also want to thank you for being in my life the way you are now. It's silly to say, but I can't imagine you not in my life after meeting you; it feels like you have been a part of it forever, and we now just started to notice it more. No matter what road lies ahead, I will truly always be there for you.

But, things have become a little bit complicated; inside of me, I see you more as a friend. I see the girl who is blossoming into a beautiful woman, and I want to be a part of that journey. Is that a bad thing? I continuously think what if. Is it wrong that I want to see you wrapped around my arms, as we walk in public, or show you continuous affection, and to go on one of those helpless romantic date nights? Is it okay to evolve our friendship to a relationship? I think about it all the time and the answer I came up with is... no. It's not wrong for me to want these things. I understand your feelings are starting to matriculate more like mine too but don't hold back and be afraid of what you feel.

I completely understand how much you value our friendship. I do as well, but you can't tell me you don't think about what could be either... dealing what you are going through I completely understand the position I am in, but that doesn't mean that I will stop trying. I was always taught if you want something go and get it, and that's what I'm going to do, but with patience. I don't want to rush anything or make things seem forced; that's not my angle nor the game I want to play. When the day comes when we can finally connect together as one, I want it to be ever so smooth.

In the form of penmanship, I write to you a little bit of what I'm feeling on the inside. You already know enough to figure out what could be going on the inside of my mind. Not even 500 words can really get into the complexity of what I am really thinking and feel about what chemically has been changing the way I view you now. But hopefully you will get the full effect of my feelings.

Sincerely yours

-FDA

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.
