To My Best Friend During This Difficult Time
Kara Hickey

My dearest friend,

So, recently life has decided to take a turn and throw some curve balls your way. Unfortunately, for you, they weren't avoidable. The one thing I want to say to you is that I am here. I am here when you wake up in the middle of the night because of a dream that reminded you of this hard time. I am here when you can't sleep because thoughts are going through your head. I am here when you feel like the world is ending and nothing seems to get better. I am here when the dust settles and everyones lives, including your own start going back to normal.

I want you to know that this difficult time is going to change you as a person. It is going to make you stronger, and an even better person than you already are. Being in this position is something I do not wish on anyone, especially because I have felt the feelings you are feeling now. I want you to know that you will push through this hard time and make your father even more proud than he already was, no I'm sorry is. He is proud of you.

My friend, you are facing one of the hardest times in your life, and you will get through it with the help of the ones you love, myself included. I know right now I do not know how or what you are feeling, but I do know that you will get through it, and I will try my best to understand. Knowing you have dealt with so much pain in such a short amount of time sickens me, because you do not deserve it. So now, it's time to work through the pain and let me be a friend to you. Let yourself cry or laugh or do whatever, but do not let this take over you. I am proud to know you my dear friend, and I will help you through this difficult time.

Love, the friend who is always here

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.
