Everyone is constantly wanting to know where they will be in the future. What they will be doing, who will be in their life, and if they will be successful. We all wish we could fast forward and just know everything about the future. I know I always do. Even though I have no idea where I will be or what I will be doing here is were I want to be in five years.

1. Successful

Everyone wants to be successful. To me being successful means to be thriving in whatever you are doing. If I am working in politics or working for a non-profit organization I want to be thriving at it not just trying to get through it day by day. Success doesn't mean you have to be well known. I think you just have to be good at whatever you are doing.

2. Doing Something That I Love

I always get super overwhelmed when I think about the future and what I will be doing job wise. I dread to have a job in the future that makes it hard to get out of bed for. I want to have a job doing something that I love that makes me excited to get up and get to work every day.

3. Married

This one is a definite must. I might not have my life completely planned out but in five years Id like to be married by then. I do not want to be thirty and still not married (there is nothing wrong with that by the way). Being married by 25 just sounds good to me. I have so many "future wedding" pins on Pinterest. It's like a hobby.

4. To Be Confident

If nothing else in five years I want to be confident. Growing up and being insecure your entire life is just tiring. It's time to change that and love myself.

5. Living In My Own Home

This is also a huge goal for me. I want to be well off enough where I am not renting an apartment or house. I want to be able to buy a house with my man and for us to run around my yard like a little kid. Then, pay the mortgage.

6. To Just Be Happy And Healthy

In five years I just want to be happy and healthy. I feel like that is the most important thing for the future. I want to be happy with myself and positive about life. I want to have a good, healthy diet, and full of energy. I don't want to be worrying about the stupid little things that I do in present time.Live carefreely.

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.
