Not Everyone is Counting Down
Every year, starting December 1st, the countdown begins. Advent calendars are opened. Holiday movies play on repeat. Conversations fill with excitement about traditions, plans, and everything people can’t wait for. And every year, I watch that countdown from the outside.

Behind the Smile: The Hidden Faces of Suicide
Every 40 seconds, somewhere in the world, a life is lost to suicide. By the end of the year, that adds up to nearly 800,000 people. For every life taken, there are countless others who attempt it—some estimates say over 20 million attempts each year. These are not just numbers; they represent mothers and brothers, best friends and neighbors. They represent stories cut short, futures never lived, and ripples of grief that travel through families and communities.
