Fans were shocked last week when 26-year old musician Mac Miller was found dead in his Los Angeles home. The prominent hip-hop star has been open about his struggles with addiction over the years, sharing his dependence on lean, a combination of codeine and promethazine. While his death appears to have been caused by an overdose, the coroner has not released a final report at this time. 

Millions of fans are devastated at the loss, as are Miller's family. His most famous ex-girlfriend, Ariana Grande, from whom the rapper split last spring, shared a poignant picture of him on Instagram over the weekend.

4. Advice

These days, Nomi is an advice columnist at the online Taylor magazine. If you click over from the link on her Twitter page you can find her columns where she shares wisdom like, "In the moment you don’t know. You don’t know what lies ahead and, scarier yet, you don’t know who you will become. You won’t get paid a visit from you future self showing you Snapchats of your awesome life in a few months time. No, you will never be able to see into the future or reach into the past, and so letting go requires a truly daring and courageous act: Letting go requires having faith in yourself."
