I love you, I miss you, and I will never forget you.

Thank You To Long Distance Friends
Lauren Stone

One of the hardest things in the world is being away from the people you love. For me, that’s being away from the friends that I made when I went away for school. However, these friends that I have such a hard time being away from shaped me into who I am in so many ways and I can’t thank them enough for being part of my life.

Here is a thank you letter to the girls who have made me a better person, who have brought me nothing but smiles and some of my favorite memories and were always there to pick me up when I was down. This thank you letter doesn’t do justice for what you mean to me, but know that you’re someone I can’t live without.

Thank you for dragging me out of my bed when I refused to see the light of day. Thank you for wiping my sad and happy tears. Thank you for calling me to see how my day is going even when you have no idea what I’m talking about. Thank you for all the times we ate enough food to feed a football team. Thank you for dancing and singing your heart out with me. Thank you for all the times we did things and look back and say, “Never again”. Thank you for motivating me to do something I’m scared to do. Thank you for being my rock. Thank you for making me smile every time I hear the songs we used to dance to or watch the shows we used to watch together. Thank you for all the times you never judged me. Thank you for getting mad at something that I was mad about just so I wasn’t alone. Thank you for seeing the good in me when I don’t. Thank you for all the times you stood up for me when I wasn’t strong enough. Thank you for reminding me that no matter what, you’re always there. Thank you for giving me the best gift I could ever have, and that’s the best friendship anyone could ask for.

I hate being away from you and I hate missing you. I know that you’re always there for me, but some days I really just have a hard time not being with my best friends. At the end of the day I need you to know that I will always be there for you, I will motivate you to do what’s best for you, and I will never judge you. I will always be willing to go to the ends of the earth for you because I know you’d do the same. Nobody can replace you, remember that. I love you no matter where in the world you are. Thank you for being the best thing every girl needs- a best friend.

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.
