My Prayer For President Donald Trump
TV Guide

Donald Trump is my President. I cannot deny that fact nor can I change it. I am thankful that I live in the land of the free and the home of the brave. I am proud to be a part of a democracy. Just because I wasn't supportive of Donald Trump before doesn't mean I will rebel or disown him now. He is not a perfect man and he will not be a perfect president; however, he is my president now. President Donald Trump is inaugurated and I would like to pray for my new leader and for my country because the success of one is beneficial for the other. We are in this together.

Lord, I pray that you watch over my new president and keep him safe. Let no harm come to him and keep him healthy throughout his next 4 years.

Please give Donald Trump the strength and courage he will need to take on this demanding lifestyle. I trust that you have prepared him and the rest of our country's leaders to make the right decisions and continue to run this government. Help him and his family transition into this life of power, publicity, diplomacy, and representing the United States of America.

Please provide Donald Trump with the great wisdom needed for this influential role. Help him to use his previous knowledge to guide him while also learning something new every day. Please grant this nation prosperity and allow the United States to flourish under his leadership and grow as a nation together.

Lord, please unite the nation and help us to remember that politics should be a civilized debate of diverse opinions rather than a blood bath of words or actions. Protect peaceful protestors and also those under protest. Let no harm come to anyone--no matter their background or political affiliation.

I pray that everyone living in this country--legal citizen or illegal immigrant, man or woman, gay or straight, African American, Asian, Hispanic, or Caucasian--feels safe and supported. Please let minds be at ease and families comforted. Help each and every one of us to remember that you are watching over us and will always be with us.

In your name I pray,

Amen.

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.
