The Reminder Your Best Friend Deserves, When Times Get Tough For Her
Taylor Markee

Dear Best Friend,

I know that things lately have not been super easy for you, and it is so hard for me to not be with you right now. But I wanted to remind you of a few things, for times like this.

What people say about you does not define who you are.

The only one who knows you inside and out is God. He created you to be the beautiful, caring, person that you are. Don't let anyone tell you differently.

I am always here for you.

Even though I am 3,000 miles away in Florida, I am always just a phone call or a text away. I would drop whatever I was doing to talk to you and help you with anything. You are my sister, and that's what we do. I wish we were not so far, but God knew we could handle the distance.

You are fearfully and wonderfully made.

If you ever need a pick me up bible verse, go to Psalms 139:14, it will remind you that you are WONDERFULLY made and that you were made with a purpose. God is going to use you in amazing ways, He has already blessed my life so much with your friendship.

Your hardship is my hardship.

I am not going to let you face any hard times on your own. I am here every step of the way to help you, lift you up, and catch you when you fall. Whatever I can do for you, being so far away I will do that for you. I am always close by in spirit. If you ever feel alone look at your ring. Mine never comes off.

I hope that you can read these and know that you are loved so dearly by so many people in your life. Don't let an insignificant person bring you down. You are strong, and you are never alone.

I love you, sis.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

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.
