Universe, Broken Hearts And Late Night Thoughts

The rambles of a poet.

I'm the girl that's too caring. I'm the girl that sees people for who they could be, not who they are. I see a million faces when you only see an old man.

I'm the girl that will challenge you. I won't just accept what you say, I'll ask you why and push your buttons. I'll drive you fucking nuts with all my hypothetical questions and thoughts of The Universe.

I'm the girl that believes people deserve more than one chance and that people truly can change. I'm the girl that's sassy and goofy one minute and quiet and sad the next. I'm the girl that refuses to give up, even when you beg and scream at me to.

I'm the girl that's needy as hell one day and independent the next. Some days I'll want to be held and others I'll need to be held back from jumping the train.

I'm the girl that believes in The Universe, carries crystals and always has a motivational quote at hand. I'm the girl that's hard to keep up with, but it doesn't matter because you never even left the starting line.

I'm the girl that writes.

I turn heartbreak into sonnets, tears into poems and laughs into stories. I'm the girl that made you the hero of my story when in reality I was the savior all along.

I'm the girl that cries when she sees a cute dog and could spend hours wandering a flea market. I'm the girl that sees a story in every face and loves hot tea.

I'm the girl that has trouble showing emotions but would walk to the ends of the earth for the one I love. I'm the girl that overthinks everything and reads too much into facial expressions. I'm the girl that will make you question everything you've ever known about love

I'm the girl you open but never finish reading.

I'm the girl you'll think of when you see daisies and the girl that will make you forever view the moon in a different way. I'm the girl you'll think of when you see someone order iced coffee in mid January and you'll think of me again when you hear the faint sound of "The Breakfast Club."

Yes, I'll stay in the back of your mind for ages and there will be times you'll ask if I was the one that got away, but those thoughts never stay. Because I'm the girl that's full of spirit and you never did care for wild things.

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.
