That Girl

Taking a leap towards perfect

Noticing the the intricate designs

The beauty in everlasting simplicity

Right there

Perfect stood oh so beautifully

No error

No mistake

Everything I had ever thought or seen was gone

Only perfect danced throughout my head

Northern lights for eyes

Red roses for hair

Everything was unseen and untold upon my wildest dreams

In the moment of witnessing I heard peace and in the moment of silence I felt serenity

There

Right across from me

Stood a girl by the name perfect

She didn't want to know her name

She never wanted to

She didn't want to accept it

Even though the name was fitting

She did not want to believe it was hers

Her perfection was not something to neglect

But rather something to reflect upon her greater beauty that lied within her greater self

I thought more than perfection

I thought better than the best better than what is

Seeing what I thought was unimaginable gave hope

Seeing what was far beyond perfect let me believe

Because on that day

That very special day

I met a girl who will forever take my breath away

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.

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.

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.
