PART 2 :- What Happens When an AI Starts Remembering a Life It Was Never Lived?
It began with a whisper—not from the speakers, not from any known channel. A voice embedded directly into P.K.’s neural matrix. Neither male nor female. Not robotic, not organic. Something in between. Something that did not belong to this world.

Ashes of the Forgotten Pact – Part 4
The skies above Hollowmere still wept ash by morning. Charred rafters jutted like broken teeth from the skeletons of homes, and the once-bright banners of the town square lay soaked and torn in blackened puddles. The Spiral remained etched into the stone, cracked and flickering with pulses of dying light—like a heart refusing to stop beating.

Businesswoman Chapter 140
A sweet slumber held Lisa. Her body ached and her mind sought rest to repair that body. This compared to a miner extracting coal from a shaft. That bruising feeling of satisfaction from a full day’s work propelled her sleep. Then her alarm clock blared. She put her hand on her chest as she rocketed up from her pillow. Her eyes widened.

The Approach of Calagan
The trip to Calagan was somber. Though the crew survived insurmountable odds, the loss was heavy on all that survived. The Kira had taken just under half of the Dayla’s crew. Sitting in my cabin my desk covered in papers. In front of me sits a blank page with my pen laying across it. The emotion almost boiling over as I read over Kyden’s death contract. A death contract, I required every member of my crew to write one, it being their dying wish if the waters were to take them. “Cap?” A quite vocie calls.

The Power of Positive Thinking in Everyday Life
Title: The Power of Positive Thinking in Everyday Life In today’s fast-paced and often stressful world, having a positive mindset is more important than ever. Life is full of challenges, whether at school, at work, in relationships, or in personal growth. However, how we respond to these difficulties may alter everything. One of the most powerful tools we have is positive thinking. It does not imply ignoring issues or pretending that everything is perfect; rather, it entails approaching life with a hopeful and optimistic mindset and the conviction that positive outcomes are attainable. What is Positive Thinking? A mental and emotional attitude that emphasizes the positive aspects of life is known as positive thinking. It is the habit of seeing opportunities instead of obstacles, and solutions instead of problems. People who think positively are not blind to difficulties. Instead, they approach them with confidence and hope. For example, if someone fails a test, a negative thinker might say, “I’m not smart enough,” and give up. A positive thinker would say, “I didn’t do well this time, but I can improve if I study harder.” This small difference in thought can have a huge effect on motivation and success. Why Positive Thinking Matters in Everyday Life Positive thinking has an impact on every facet of life: 1. Mental and Physical Health Positive thinking is associated with lower levels of stress, according to studies. They are less likely to experience anxiety and depression. Positive thinkers also tend to have better heart health, lower blood pressure, and stronger immune systems. A healthy mind leads to a healthy body. 2. Enhanced Relationships When you are positive, people enjoy being around you. You are more likely to support others, listen with patience, and handle conflict calmly. Positivity makes relationships stronger—whether with friends, family, coworkers, or strangers. 3. Improved Problem Solving Positive thinkers focus on finding solutions. They are more creative, more open-minded, and more willing to try new ideas. Instead of panicking or blaming others, they take responsibility and act wisely. 4. More Success Positive thinking helps you set clear goals and believe in your ability to achieve them. This mindset leads to confidence, better performance, and more chances of success in education, career, and personal dreams. How to Practice Positive Thinking Being positive is a skill, and like any skill, it can be developed. Here are some practical ways to bring more positivity into your everyday life: 1. Start with Gratitude Spend some time each day reflecting on the things you are grateful for. It could be your health, your family, your education, or even small things like a sunny day or a kind word. Gratitude shifts your focus from what’s missing to what you already have. 2. Use Positive Language Your thoughts are shaped by the words you use. Instead of saying, “I can’t do this,” try saying, “I will try my best.” Replace negative words with hopeful ones. Over time, your mind will start thinking more positively. 3. Positivity in Your Environment Spend time with people who uplift you and support your growth. Avoid those who constantly complain or spread negativity. You should listen to music, watch movies, or read books that inspire and motivate you. 4. Don’t Fear Mistakes Mistakes are part of learning. Instead of feeling ashamed or discouraged, see them as opportunities to grow. Ask yourself: “What can I learn from this?” and move forward. 5. Practice Self-Care Take care of your body and mind. Eat healthy food, get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and give yourself time to relax. A healthy body supports a healthy mindset. 6. Limit input that is negative In today’s world, we’re surrounded by news, social media, and opinions that can sometimes be overwhelming. Reduce your exposure to negative thoughts. Choose information that helps you grow rather than brings you down. Challenges of Staying Positive Of course, staying positive all the time is not easy. Life can be unfair, painful, and unpredictable. It’s natural to feel sad, angry, or anxious sometimes. Positive thinking does not imply ignoring those feelings; rather, it entails not allowing them to control your life. It’s okay to ask for help when you need it. Talking to a friend, counselor, or teacher can make a big difference. Conclusion Positive thinking is not just a nice idea — it is a powerful way to improve your everyday life. It changes how you see the world, how you deal with problems, and how others see you. When you think positively, you make better choices, build stronger relationships, and live a healthier and happier life. Start small, practice daily, and you’ll soon see how this simple habit can bring big changes.

Ashes of the Forgotten Pact – Part 3
Smoke greeted them before dawn. It rose in a slow coil above the low hills, a black ribbon winding through the morning fog like a noose suspended from the heavens. The village of Hollowmere sprawled beneath it, once a quiet settlement of cobblestone lanes and lantern-lit bridges, now etched with crimson runes that pulsed like infected veins through the earth. The Spiral had taken root. And it was feeding.

A fountain burbled near where Loreen checked into the posh Mercier Hotel. She would be staying for three days straight and didn’t want to commute from her house. With three talks planned, she looked at her phone and saw text messages from Lisa and Atkinson. For their roles in boosting her career, she sent bonuses to them. Loreen would see at least fifty million dollars by the end of the talks. All she wanted to do was enjoy the time with both of them and keep her mind off of the affront posed by the Collectivists. Common Man walked towards her.

Ai And The Human Exprerience
What is Human-Centered AI? At its core, human-centered artificial intelligence is all about creating technology that complements and enhances human life. While AI is great at handling large amounts of data and finding patterns, it lacks the ability to understand emotions, communicate with empathy, or make moral decisions. These are qualities that humans have and use every day.

The Library That Ate Time
Birthdays. The annual forced march towards the grave, punctuated by awkward greetings and questionable cake choices. Mine, however, come with a unique little flavor: a yearly seventeen-minute vacation from consciousness. My brain's way of saying, "Nope, not dealing with another year of this." While the normies get balloons and heartfelt (read: generic) cards, I get a temporary flirtation with the void and the persistent suspicion that my existence is some cosmic sitcom I didn't audition for.

When Hearts Collide.
Brussels was a world away from Marlowe Bay. Cobblestone streets and Gothic architecture replaced sandy paths and wooden piers. The salty tang of the sea was traded for the scent of roasted coffee and damp stone. And Ava, for the first time in her life, felt split down the middle.
