Because I have a brother, I will always have a friend.

Little brother,

To begin, I want you to know that I am very proud of the wonderful young man that you are becoming. You have grown to become a responsible, reputable, and passionate individual, and I am thankful to be your older sister. Without you, I would not be half of the person that I am today.

You may not realize it, but you are wise beyond your years. I wish I had acquired the wisdom that you have when I was your age. I admire that you are not afraid to stand-up and fight for what you believe in. You are willing to go against the crowd in order to maintain your sense of happiness. Everything that you do, you do with passion, hard work, and determination. You do not let anyone’s words or thoughts stop you because you are willing to challenge yourself.

I almost envy you for being such a good kid. You surround yourself with positive people that will leave a huge imprint in your life. You have so much compassion for others. Yes, you do have a good way of hiding it and staying strong, but I can tell when something is bothering you. You are never quick to judge someone or something. Whenever I need advice or to let something off of my chest, I know that I can turn to you because you will give me the advice and answers that I need.

As you continue to grow up, life will challenge you. There will be times you will question yourself and your strength, but please do not lose hope. Continue making me and the rest of the family proud. We understand that you are human and will make mistakes. Learn from your mistakes as you go and if you need help along the way, I will be here to support and guide you. Words cannot describe how happy I am that as we grew up, we were able to create an unbreakable bond. To me, you are more than my little brother. You are my best friend. I love you so much.

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.
