To The Guy Who Caught Me Off Guard

I basically could replace “caught off guard” with “swept me off my feet”.

To The Guy Who Caught Me Off Guard
Pablo Heimplatz

I mean that in the sweetest, endearing way possible. You came into my life so suddenly but it’s like you fell into place.

Our routine was so easily made, and didn’t feel forced or unliked. You’ve made me feel differently than I ever thought I could. I feel appreciated, beautiful, strong, mature, deeply loved, and prioritized.

Before you I thought most people would need their space right when they get home from work, not immediately wanting kissing or to hold me because they had been thinking of me all day.

I thought most people when they go out with a night with friends and their girls, you wouldn’t really get attention til it was time to go home. Not making time to run to get me a drink, and coming to spend almost an hour dancing with me. I thought most people would want their space when it’s time to go to bed, not wanting to pull me as close to you as possible to watch the TV show I recommended you’d love.

You’ve been a sweet surprise in every way possible (yes, even your surprise tickles just to hear me laugh). The coming up behind me to hug me as I do dishes from dinner, and telling me thank you while covering me in kisses. The rubbing my back or feet when I come cuddle up in your lap on the couch. The bringing me food and a drink and sitting with me in the restroom as I take a bath. Everything. Every way possible you are amazing and I appreciate you.

I appreciate you listening to my problems, and unbiasedly help me solve them. I appreciate you not judging my past, and knowing that we can’t change those things, and everyone makes mistakes. I appreciate you understanding my constant need for attention after I’ve had a long day, even though you have too. I appreciate you bringing me into your life and showing me what you love, and letting me be apart of it.

I appreciate you make me indescribably happy, and for it to be one of your goals to make me happy 24/7. You caught me off guard by showing me how someone who loves me would treat me, and what a healthy relationship should be like.

And I hope I can return the same to you.

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.
