The meaning of life, everlasting

There are moments in our lives that change who we are as humans. We begin to think differently, act differently, and speak differently. We are growing each and everyday. The person you were yesterday no longer exists because the person you are today has taken over. Each and every single day is brand new, and it is a new chance to start over. We, as a society, hold up people to new standards and love putting those people down for the mistakes they make. The reality is that every single one of us makes mistakes, and it is how we handle those mistakes that helps us to grow and learn from them. Whatever happened yesterday is now a memory and is in the past. Tomorrow is a brand new day, and we must remember to make the most of it. One day, we will not wake up to a new tomorrow. Our time on Earth will be complete, and we will look back on the wonderful lives we lived. Live with no regrets, but live accordingly to the righteous path. Celebrate your mistakes, and embrace everything you have accomplished.

The Life of a Showgirl: When Taylor Swift Lets the Spotlight Dim

While it’s no surprise that we’re big Taylor Swift fans in this household, something about this newest album release felt different. On the eve of the drop, anticipation ran high. Some of us drifted off to sleep with visions of glitter, feathers, and showgirls twirling in our minds. Others fueled up on caffeine, determined to stay awake until the clock struck twelve. And when it did—on October 3—we were ready for it. But this time, I chose sleep. The next morning, headphones in hand, I pressed play as soon as I woke up—and almost immediately, I felt something shift. Taylor’s music has always been deeply relatable—that’s never been in question. The Life of a Showgirl follows the forever-endearing The Tortured Poets Department, an album I adored with every ounce of my being. That record proved what so many of us already knew: Taylor is a poet at large. Naturally, expectations for this new album were sky-high. The Life of a Showgirl promised to peel back the curtain—to reveal life beyond ...

The Harsh Reality of Planning Your Wedding Without Your Mom

When the countdown nears 0 days, the butterflies begin to dance around your stomach, your cheeks become sore from smiling so much, and there's a sense of peace that drops over you because you're finally marrying the love of your life.  This is the best time of your life, and you could not be more overjoyed.  Suddenly, sadness starts to hit you like a tidal wave that came without warning.

Wicked Part One: A Film That Leaves You Changed "For Good"

 I was 17, on a flight to the Bahamas for a family vacation, when I first listened to the Wicked Broadway soundtrack. Staring out the window at the endless clouds, I felt like I was soaring right alongside Elphaba as she defied gravity. That music stayed with me, becoming a soundtrack to a summer I’ll never forget. Years later, sitting in the audience at Playhouse Square, I watched the story come to life on stage, and it changed me “for good.” So, when the movie finally came out, I walked into the theater with high hopes—and let me tell you, I was utterly blown away. Wicked: Part 1 was released in November 2024, directed by Jon M. Chu, starring Ariana Grande as Glinda and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba. It’s a fantasy musical adaptation of the Broadway hit and novel by Gregory Maguire. It starts with celebrating the Wicked Witch of the West’s downfall after melting and perishing to her doom. Although all seems fine and celebratory in the Land of Oz, we later learn that the Wicked Witch, ...
