The Lesson I Learned Too Late
✨ The Lesson I Learned Too Late How One Mistake Taught Me Everything I Needed to Know Too Late --- BY: Ubaid I used to believe that time was elastic — that it stretched as far as I needed and waited patiently for me to grow up, to say the right things, to make the right decisions. I lived like tomorrow was guaranteed, like apologies could always be made later, and like life had the patience to entertain my stubbornness.

Word of the Day: 平和
I feel like I already used this theme before. Oh well. The girl that is sitting across me right now gave this word to me. It is nice someone feels comfortable to be next to me. Every one is really friendly. I guess I just need to opportunity to be around people who aren't my family or lovers lol. Like just normal people, normal casual conversations.

4years. AI-Generated.
Do you know what its like to lose I lost, I lost a very important grade that I put years of struggle and study into. I lost the only definition of success in my 4 year of study. It is the hardest feeling I’d ever felt. Especially since I lost to someone who had only just started his journey who met me in my struggle but still was able to make it and won. I feel useless, stupid and angry. My anger knows no bounds. Even in my silent prayers, in my late night weeping, I remember how my pillow was always wet with my tears, tears of frustration, tears of fatigue. silent prayers for help to GOD to help me win but I lost. In all this I try to assure my self that everything happens for a reason but the more I tell myself that the more I realize how foolish and unintelligent I am. I claim to know but honestly I have learnt nothing. In simple words “ I am unwise, I do not fall into the category of the smart kids” in fact I am short of words. But I had always known this but I thought maybe studying hard and cramming the note can help me get my grade up but it now only reminds me now that to struggle could only do so much for me. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I want a solution, I am not a free spirit so many people don’t see me as friendly, I don’t even know what’s I want for myself, it feels like I’m cursed.

How Problems Get “Solved” in Naples
Two years ago, our roof started leaking. Well, leaking is a strong word for it; it was dropping tears on rare occasions — sometimes it seemed to me — to check in with us, as a kid does, to make sure their parents hadn't forgotten about the existence of the smallest.

The Quiet Side of Elder Abuse: What I Witnessed Working in a Lab
Elder abuse doesn’t just happen in nursing homes. It happens in cars, waiting rooms, doctor offices, and in public — right in front of people who have no power to stop it. I learned that the hard way when I was a Site Lead at Labcorp.

The Secret I Carried for Years
The Secret I Carried for Years BY: Khan The secret began as something small—so small that I convinced myself it didn’t matter. But secrets grow. They twist themselves around your thoughts, tangling everything until you cannot separate the truth from the fear of being found out. Mine stayed with me for years, tied to every decision I made and every person I let close. I thought I could outrun it. I thought silence would protect everyone, including myself. I was wrong.

A Choice I Never Thought I’d Have to Make
A Choice I Never Thought I’d Have to Make BY: Khan I always believed life moved in a straight line. You study, you work, you earn, you build something that feels like stability. That’s what I thought adulthood was. But life has a strange way of revealing its real syllabus only when you least expect it. My real lesson came the day I had to make a choice I never imagined would be placed in my hands.
