Friendship
Righteous in a corrupt world
The world is a corrupt place and it's only getting worse to the extent where corruption is steadily becoming the norm. We’ve gotten to the point where we even question what the truth is anymore. The very foundations of what makes us humans are no longer regarded as solid, you’ve got people wondering what a woman is, whether the realities we’ve always known even exist anymore.

Secret Confession. Content Warning.
This incident occurred in the last days of my engineering. I was a computer science student. I used to know one girl during my college days. For the sake of narration let's call her 'Snehal' (not her real name). Honestly, we were more than good friends. We had known each other for almost 4 years. We had kissed each other a couple of times but that was it. We never got to reach second base. But we were perfectly all right with that. Our friends knew about us. So did our professors but they did not bother us because our grades were top-notch. In short, we were the no-nonsense type of students.

Beauty From Ashes
September 11th 2001 is one of the darkest days in not only American history, but the history of humanity as a whole. It was a day when the enemy lit up our skies with fire and we were left with a rubble of dust and ashes. At the same time 9/11 was one of the most defining moments in world history in which we found beauty in these ashes we were left with. Some of the most inspirational stories you will ever hear are the stories of good that rose from the ashes of September 11th 2001 and how we became a better world.

Cousins & The Presidency
Having time off was fun and exciting but I missed the work. I missed doing good. I missed working hard. My parents told everybody and all my family were excited at the reunion. I tried to dress casual but Mom told me to wear a suit. Dad was cheerful and laughing. And my cousins were saying that they would vote for me. I already felt like a politician. And I had started planning my campaign at the same time planning Senator George Clinton's presidential win. It was tough but I had a lot of time to think since Mom and Dad urge me to find a platform and agenda. Dad wanted me to work hard with integrity. Mom wanted me to do my best and shows smart. I thought long and hard. And I remember Grandpa. I told Mom and Dad that I thought about Grandpa lately what he would do. Grandpa was a Lincoln fan and he would always say for the people, by the people and of the people. And Mom and Dad agreed to run like Grandpa. Just when I was getting into the campaigns. Mom invited Debra and I like Debra but I was just busy. Debra was trying to help. She was lovely and much of a distraction. She was a few years older. I just needed a companion, someone who would keep me in line and focus. So I brushed Debra off. Then days later Mom invited Pila. Pila was smart and in tune but she was not attractive and she liked me. She would give me ideas and she would be helpful. There was no romance. And I let her go. Then Dad and Mom had a talk with me. They explained that I was being to big headed. That I needed a good woman to settle down with. That they wanted me to choose before I go back to the Senator's office. So I worked remotely, I told my ideas to Senator Clinton for his campaign. And he said that they were fantastic. And he said that if I continue as his Chief of Staff he can guarantee me as the next appointed Senator to serve the rest of his term. And he asked me why haven't I been back at the office. I explained to him that my mother and father wanted me to find a wife. They did not want me to a Senator without a companion and family. It was a matter of honor in the Cable family. And so I asked him what made him choose Sarah Clinton? And he said she was lovely, my first love. She was smart and kind. She was just a good woman. Son don't choose a woman because she is a good tactic but choose a woman you can put up with who respect you and loves what you loves. You can play politicking but at the end of the day you will lose. Go with your heart. So I told him about Debra and Pila. And he just said you know what to do. You are smart. You know what your heart wants. And at the end of the conversation, I said Senator George you are my hero and I got to show you something that my father revealed after that dinner. It's important. But I gotta do what I gotta do. So I called up Pila and asked her to be my campaign manager and called Debra asking her to marry me. Pila said she would but she wanted a permanent position in the office. Debra said she is really grateful and said it is okay to marry quickly in front of family and that she would go wherever I go and stand besides me no matter what. After the quick Honeymoon, Debra and I went to Washington. And Senator Clinton met us at the airport saying he announced his candidacy and is facing backlash against his campaign. I said it's okay. We can win them over. We talk about policies and we talk about domestic responsiblities. I issued out statements about optimism and the American way. And begin pursuing bipartisans supporters and I advised Senator Clinton to be more outspoken and obsinate to show leadership in the Senate. Senator Clinton was a natural orator and he beated many debaters in the preliminary debates. And he was sure to be Vice President or President within months. Then he took me out to dinner and I brought my beautiful wife Debra. And We talk candidly and I finally showed him the picture. That is my great grandfather Senator George. And he said he look like me. Oh man Scott you should have told me. I knew we have a connection. I knew we were related. Forget it, I am making you Chair of my Campaign and I would give you a Cabinet position. I really was thinking you might be in good position to lead the Cabinet. I said as I stood up Yes Sir. And we shook hands and hug. And Senator Clinton said to my wife Miss are you pregnant. And Debra said Yes with twins. And I was shocked and Senator Clinton said I know because that's what my wife did for me. It was a close election and Senator Clinton became President Elect George R. Clinton and I was the President's Chief of Staff Scott Cable ready to serve.

The Enchanted Meeting
In the heart of a quaint, cobblestone town nestled between rolling hills and a serene lake, there was a charming little bookstore called "The Enchanted Nook." The bookstore was more than just a place to buy books; it was a sanctuary for dreamers and thinkers, filled with the aroma of old paper, the gentle rustle of pages turning, and the soft hum of classical music that seemed to dance through the air.

The so called problem every teenager faces, “Depression ” and “Anxiety ”.
I had never fully understood the gravity of despair until I experienced it firsthand. It wasn't a sudden onset but rather a creeping sensation that grew over months, like a dark cloud slowly overshadowing the sun. My journey through anxiety and depression was not a solitary one; it was a labyrinth I navigated with the support of others and, most importantly, with a slow but transformative change within myself.

Broolynn Is Lonely
Suddenly it’s December and you’re not 16 anymore and you haven’t been 16 in a long time but sometimes you still feel stuck in that little project apartment in Brooklyn.The fact that time passes and things change and people leave and you can only go back to a place physically and you will never be 14 ,15 ,and 16 again. I still don’t understand how we are meant to endure that. It all changed for me but not for him. We both made excuses for each others issues but the truth is we ere hiding from something much bigger. It made leaving feel like finally being able to breathe. We were both deeply sad people. It made sense that one of us wasn’t going to survive. I know that it’s not my fault but sometimes it feels like I did this.
