Thank You For Being My Mother Hen

To my Mom, Mommy, Mother Hen, or Queen B. (Whichever you decide to answer to)

Even though I tell you I love you all the time, I thought you should know just how much I appreciate you. I'm not sure it can even be put into words how much I really do love you and cherish you. You brought me into this world, and for that I am grateful. I've had an extraordinary life so far and all of it is thanks to you. You've always put Lane and I first. Even before yourself.

You're always making sure that I have everything I need and want, from letting me choose the music in the car, to traveling everywhere following my love for cheer, or just giving me a hug after I've had a bad day. Above anything else, you have always been there for me. From changing my diapers as a baby to cuddling me in bed when I was sick, and especially now with helping me choose what college to pursue my dreams in. We made it through most (and more to come) of my stubborn teen years and here you are today still loving me.

From day one you were always on my side... even if I was completely and utterly wrong. The amount of things that you have put up with, sometimes I wonder how you do it. I am forever grateful that you have put up with me for these 16 + years.You are my best friend, my mentor, and my role model. I couldn't have asked nor would have ever wanted anyone better to take your place. I am wonderstruck by you.

You've watched me succeed and fail. You've been there to wipe my tears after breakups, or to see that ear to ear grin on my face when I step off the competition mat. You've witnessed a lot of my terrible mistakes as well as my good decisions. You've watched and helped me grow and mature.

I just can't seem to understand when someone says they would never want to be anything like their mother, because I would do anything to be half the woman you are today. I know we've had our fights and problems. We've had our ups and downs. But at the end of the day please remember that I love you more than words describe.

You mean the world to me. There isn't anybody or anything that could take away the special bond we share. I love you to the moon and back.

XOXO,

Jude

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.
