Bad habits
Fading Smiles
Maya Bennett had always believed in the good in people. Raised by a schoolteacher mother and a firefighter father, she'd been taught to treat everyone with kindness, assume positive intent, and believe that character spoke louder than charm. But as she entered her late twenties and began climbing the ranks in a competitive marketing firm in downtown Chicago, she started to realize the world wasn’t always as straightforward as she once believed.

The Day I Mistook Laxatives for Breath Mints
A Hilarious Journey That Started with Fresh Breath and Ended in a Public Restroom Let me start by saying I have a very delicate relationship with public restrooms. I avoid them the way a cat avoids water — with calculated elegance and deep suspicion.

Beneath the Surface
When Ethan Hayes woke up in the burn unit of St. Joseph’s Hospital, his world had already changed. The sterile white ceiling, the muffled beeping of machines, and the antiseptic sting in the air were the first things he noticed. The second was the absence of feeling on the right side of his face. He tried to speak but found his mouth wouldn't move properly. Panic crept in, but the drugs pulled him back under before he could fight.

The Silence That Spoke Louder Than Words: A Woman’s Strength in the Shadows
They say silence is weakness. That if you’re not loud, if you don’t demand, if you don’t shout back — you’ll be forgotten. I used to believe that, too. Until life taught me that sometimes, silence is not surrender. It’s strength.

The Stranger on Platform Nine
It was a rainy afternoon in Prague, and the train station buzzed with the usual chaos—loudspeakers echoing destinations, footsteps clattering on old tiles, and the scent of coffee blending with metal, rain, and the faint smell of diesel.
