As I continue to fight against evil, I am noticing my beauty more and more each day. And with noticing my beauty, I am starting to see the beauty in everyone around me as well. Not just outer beauty, but the beauty that lives within us all. I wrote this, based on how I feel about myself and others.

Oh honey if only you knew

Oh honey
If only you knew the beauty you have
The skin you carry
The musical organs in you
Your vocal chords like a guitar
Strummed to a T bringing sound of delight
Warming souls like the sun that rises everyday
Your lungs like clarinets and saxophones
Making me dance all night long
To your heart beating like beating a drum
Making my feet feel like a brush wanting to paint the canvass floor

From earth to heaven
To your skin
Draping down into the ground like a bed sheet
When your soul reaches the heavens one day
Your soul turns the sprinkles on in the sky
Nurturing the seeds and your skin down in the ground
Creating a garden for your beauty is nourishment to us all

Oh honey if you'll see the beauty you carry with you all day long RIGHT NOW
From your smile that makes my heart jump like a child seeing candy in the distance
From your arms embracing me like a mom does to her children
To your laughter that lights up any darkness

Oh honey if you'd only knew the beauty that you are indeed.

We aren't walking through mirrors everyday
We are walking though eyes that are windows to the mind
And honey you...you have the most beautiful eyes for your story
For their shape, their look orchestrates the musical that is you

Oh honey if you'd only listen to the song that lives in your soul
You'd see the beauty that everyone knows
But is trying to capture your attention
Like that guy that stares at you in the party from his table smiling and you bowing your head in embarrassment
When he looks at you and hears that beautiful song
The song that wants you to dance with it throughout life

Lift your head up princess
And dance to the song
Your life is the party of the century
Let us dance with you

Oh honey I hope you know the beauty that lives in you.

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.
