An open letter to my friend and soul character, Monica.
An open letter to my friend and soul character, Monica. Someone who overthinks is also someone who overloves. Ahh! that quote hitd the heart in the same way cupid strikes his dart. Monica Geller, the super organized, super smart, classy woman, you have always been the backbone of your group, the one whom everyone would turn to when in need, or when they needed a shoulder to cry on. Family is the safe place that shields you from the animosity of the outer world. It helps you build your self-image and creates a sense of belonging.

The one when Joey Tells Rachel
I am falling in love with you! I don’t get it! I said I am falling in love with you. The very noteworthy scene between Rachel and Joey in the most-watched sitcom friends tells us about love. The very fact that Joey fell love in with Rachel has contradictory reactions from the audience. Joey and Rachel have been friends for several years, and friendship is something that comes with its rules and regulations, its ups and downs. Humans are contracted beings, the ones who take everything for granted when it comes easy.

From Eye Candy to Mind Boggler: Unveiling the Puzzling Narrative of "Anyone but You
From Eye Candy to Mind Boggler: Unveiling the Puzzling Narrative of "Anyone but You The visual appeal of exotic locations and captivating yet stimulating romantic comedies has always been soaring for decades. The audience loves an escape from their mundane lives into a whirlwind of romance, with heartwarming plots and a sizzling chemistry. Anyone But You sets the bar high when it comes to a visually appealing storyline and the ensemble, yet falls flat with its plot, leaving the audience contemplating and uninterested as the story unfolds. Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare is said to be the inspiration for the movie Anyone But You. That may or may not be the case, though, as Shakespeare's entire body of work has become imbued with archetypal meanings—just as every detective has some debt to Sherlock Holmes. Let's get straight to this rom-com and discuss the various nuances of this film

Anniversary
This is not for a Vocal+ entry that is going on, but my view of this word 'anniversary'. An anniversary is a chance to say to people congratulations on many accounts as in being married many years or the sadness of losing someone special or just a birthday anniversary of someone lost. It is a time to remember some occasion.

Soap Opera
Anyone out still watch the daytime dramas? To be honest I still watch short snippets of the ones still on television. My favorite back in high school was General Hospital and even today I still watch maybe at the most a half hour or so. My other favorites which are no longer on were All My Children, One Life to Live and Ryan's Hope. When I was little there were a few that I watched with my mom for I was not in school yet and they were 'The Secret Storm' and 'Love of Life' and I think 'The Doctors' and 'Days of Our Lives' which is still on today. They covered so many issues from drugs, sex, divorce and many other issues to numerous to list here. The characters were like family at times even though at various times in the stories all you wanted to do was slap them silly for some very stupid acts.

The New Heaven and the New Earth
Anyone out there that believe in the idea of the New Heaven and the New Earth. I have read in a spiritual newsletter that this is when Heaven comes down to Earth. There will be no pain of any kind. There will be plenty of food and water. It will be a chance to catch up with family members that have gone before.

Critiquing
So, what is critiquing. To me it is all about giving short summaries of various pieces of writing and/or artwork. It is a chance to share an opinion or two without getting into a whole review. A critique is showing the good and bad points of a work that may not be bad to the writer/artist. It is a chance to also give some suggestions to the author to improve the work if needed.
