My Relationship Status with God

Everyone around me is in a relationship and for the first time in a couple years, I'm the single friend. I took for granted having someone to talk to at the end of the day. Sure my best friends and my family will always be there for me, but at the end of the day it was always nice to have someone to talk to about the good and bad parts of the day who would listen to me and support me.

It was nice to have someone to tell all my secrets to and someone to tell me theirs back. It was nice to spend the last parts of my day talking to someone who truly understood me.While I might think I miss this from being in a relationship, I also realized that I have this every night with someone who cares about me, knows the real me, and wants the best for me. Someone who knows me no matter how many walls I have up and someone who loves me unconditionally.

That person in my life is God. He is there for me at the end of the day to listen to my highs and lows. He is there to guide me when I make decisions. He is there to love me unconditionally. So while these things can be found in a relationship with a significant other, these things are also found with a relationship with Jesus Christ. You don't need a relationship to feel loved or to go to someone after a long day with your tired heart. He will always be there even if you do have a person to go to at the end of the day. He is always there to love us and support us.

So when I think I start missing this part of a relationship, I can rest easy knowing I have an even better relationship with my Heavenly Father who will never abandon me. He will lead me where I need to be and always has my best interest in mind. He will never hurt me.

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.
