Son Of A Female Dog

A fairly open letter to a "super" dude.

Hi everyone. I know it has been a long time since I have written. I needed a break. I wasn't doing very well.

There was a day that started out bright, then...

Bang.

Trigger pulled by one single sentence.

"There goes the dead guy's girlfriend."

Not only my ears heard it.

Many did.

So, to the son of a female dog: thank you for your cruelty. Thank you for breaking my heart open again. Thank you for reminding me. Thank you for making me feel like I have no "self" anymore, but a label. A billboard. A tattoo on my forehead.

Thank you for making me revisit my pain while going through an abundance of pain before your voice existed in my ears. For my restless nights of making sure my cat and my roommate are breathing and still alive. For making me so anxious to leave my apartment and risk having an anxiety attack with flashbacks in public...again.

I hope we have nothing in common. I hope we NEVER have something in common. ESPECIALLY loss of love...because then... someone might be cruel to you like you were to me and then we both will also have that added pain in common and I feel like that would add even more pain to your conscience to know that you were cruel to someone who could have and would have been there to be kind to you during YOUR heartache. Regret is what I would label that added pain for you, pal.

You are either blissfully ignorant of just how unfair and painful this life than can be that you think a sentence will not pull a mental trigger to someone else or you are just a sad, lonely man...

Either way... I pity you.

"There goes the guy who was an a** to the girl who lost her boyfriend."

How would you like that?


PS. To my readers, I do want to say that after giving myself some time and comfort that I am doing better. My next article will possibly be something along the lines of coping and the like, so stay tuned. And no, I don't know who the guy was nor do I want to know.

Love.

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.
