To My Best Friend Who I Physically Can't Be With,

I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I can't be there to wipe away your tears and to distract you from the pain that seems to be consuming your entire body. I know exactly how you feel and if it was not for you I have no idea how I would have survived. My world came crashing down and there you were to pick it back up, carry it and put the pieces back together with me. We have gone through dark times with laughter and happy times with tears, thick and thin we have always had each other's back.

Now you need me and I cannot be there physically. There is only so much that I can say and it will never compare to the cuddle sessions in a tiny dorm bed watching Netflix between classes or the late night FaceTimes. I will never be able to be there for you the way that you were for me and I'm sorry. I would do anything to be with you right now, and when school starts back we have a lot of making up to do.

It's going to hurt for a long time but after a while, the immediate pain will fade away and it will be like coming up for fresh air. You will see him for who he truly is and for who he wasn't. You will slowly realize how poisonous he was to your existence and how much he took from you and how little was given in return. You will see what you were too blinded to realize.

You will learn a lot about love, a lot about yourself, and a lot about the past and future. You will learn what you deserve and what you do not, You will learn you are stronger than what you had previously thought. You will learn that it hurt like hell having the person that you love not hurting the way you are. He may or may not come back and say the things you desperately want to hear, but either way it is going to hurt. Please do not go back, do not continue a vicious cycle that is going to end up doing more harm than good. No matter what he says it does not take back what has happened or what will continue to happen.

I love you and will support you with whatever you decide to do with your life, just like you did for me. I will tell you exactly what I think and will be there to give the same tough love that you gave me. I will be ready to get the screenshots and the random texts messages about him. I will always be here, through thick and thin like I have always been. This will make you a stronger person and open your eyes to so many new things, this will change you for the best.

You're my best friend and I love you. Welcome back.

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.
