Love After Liberation: A Journey of Trust, Wholeness & Second Chances
The room is quiet, but my heart is not. It beats with the memory of old wounds and the faint echo of laughter that once filled my days. In the stillness, I hear it - a whisper, soft as a prayer: Could I love again?

How You Can Become a Better Writer
We all understand the power of words. We know, instinctively, that the sentences we construct are more than just a means to convey information; they are the vessels for our deepest thoughts, our most heartfelt aspirations, and the hard-won wisdom we gather over a lifetime. The individual who commits their perspective to the page embarks upon a profound act of vulnerability and courage. They invite the world into the sacred space of their own reflection. This act, however, often carries with it a significant burden: the relentless pursuit of improvement, the persistent yearning to articulate the internal world with precision and grace.

Jama Taqseem Ep 3 & 4
Episodes three and four of Jama Taqseem perfectly portrayed what occurs when the wedding lights go off and reality creeps in. Until recently, the plot had been around Laila and Qais selecting each other and overcoming the first unpleasantness of rishtas and family dynamics. But with these episodes, the drama transitioned to marital life, and they were some of the most fun yet.

Businesswoman Chapter 267
There’s a way that the leaves swayed in the breeze. Almost ominously, they sort of slowly swished and then violently, wind tore through the trees. This reflected the state of Businesswoman’s mind. Loreen didn’t get headaches. Now, though, she experienced something close to it at her desk.

The 48-Hour Invasion. AI-Generated.
The invasion took record time to start and end. It was a matter of two consecutive twenty-four-hour days - the span of a weekend spent with friends or a holiday away with a loved one in a cozy cabin. Two freaking days, and the world ended.

Penumbra - Chapter 4
After the world stopped shaking and the grout in the floor tiles coalesced into straight lines again, I struggled to my feet. A darting speck of movement caught my eye; a scorpion skittered under the toe-kick by the kitchen sink. The back door had blown open when the swamp cooler kicked on and pressurized the house. Groaning, I stepped out into the night, not bothering to close the door behind me.

Penumbra - Chapter 3
She was my height, and though her insubstantial form lent little detail, the outline of her hair was clear enough, the general shape of her body familiar enough, and the slouching posture reminiscent enough to leave little doubt I was looking at my mom. Her drifting white form walked though the kitchen towards the living room as though I wasn’t there. As she walked by, a familiar tune wafted through the still air -the waltz-y opening notes to “I Love Lucy”. The smell of Virginia Slims hung over the kitchen like an aura, but these senses yielded to silence and stagnation as the vapor-spirit passed further into the house, disappearing into the black hallway toward her bedroom. I let out a small gasp as the breath I had been holding finally broke the silence. I stayed and took several deep breaths, calming myself. I started off after the figure, feeling my way along the hall into the darkness. My eyes had begun to adjust as I continued into her room.
