The Mirror That Refused Comfort
Truth Without Soft Edges
This mirror showed nothing flattering. No reassurance. No condemnation either. Only what existed in that moment. Some smashed it. Others returned daily, learning to accept imperfection without judgment. The mirror did not teach confidence—it taught honesty. Confidence followed later, quietly.

The City That Outgrew Its Shadows
At first, shadows in the city behaved normally, stretching at dusk and shrinking at dawn. But as years passed, something changed. People began confronting truths they had avoided—apologies spoken, limits accepted, desires admitted quietly. The shadows responded by growing thinner, paler, until one evening they no longer appeared at all. Without shadows, the city felt exposed, unfamiliar. Yet people slept more peacefully. Fear, it seemed, needs darkness to survive.

Hobbies And Living Make Life What
When we look at our lives and the way we live them what is the first thing that comes to mind? Is it the hobbies that we enjoy doing in our lives, or is it just how we live and show the world how our hobbies and life can work together? How is it that a person can live the way they do and have hobbies to make their life what it is for them? Is it just the things that they do in there lives to make it what it is, or is it the hobbies themselves and what they do to a person’s life when they do said things? I think it is how a person actually looks at their life, with all the things that a person has in their life, that makes it what it is with their hobbies. What that means is, people live the way they do because of their likes and dislikes. We wouldn’t all be different if we didn’t have those. If we didn’t have hobbies we wouldn’t really have lives, have you ever thought of that. Even when we work at a job hobbies come before that, because we always need ways to relax after a long day. We go to school, but after school we need something to calm our nerves and to give us a break, so what do we do? Well we do have a hobby of course. The question is how long have hobbies been around in our lives?
