To the friend that I lost and I have no idea why

To the friend that I lost and I have no idea why

I hope you find someone else to create those incredible memories with. I hope you make more friends that make you feel so special and appreciated because you deserve it.

And I’m sorry I couldn’t be that friend for you.

I will never know what happened to this friendship, and I will never know what I did that caused you to drop this all and just walk away, but I hope one day I may stop asking myself what I did wrong.

You were my best friend, my “twin”, and my person who I could go to for anything, until one day you were gone with no explanation why. I’m happy that I could be so easy for you to drop and walk away from. I’m happy that you didn’t really care much for this friendship and that getting rid of it one day was so easy for you. I’m happy that you’re okay.

I just want you to know that it wasn’t easy for me. If I could tell you anything I would want to tell you that it hurt. But I also want to tell you that I’m sorry. I don’t know what I did but I’m sorry. Because apparently I did something that gave you the idea that this wasn’t enough. This friendship wasn’t worth talking about whatever had happened, it was just worth throwing away like trash. I didn’t think this friendship was trash, and I wish I would have known something was happening so I could talk to you about how important I believed this friendship to be. But you didn’t care about what I thought. It wasn’t worth it to you.

So I wish you the best. I hope you find a friendship one day that means the world to you with friends who are special to you. Because you deserve it, we all do.

Sincerely,

An old friend.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
