Euphoria
Euphoria : feeling of extreme elation and well-being, often characterized by a sense of contentment and bliss Love, I always wondered what love is, how it feels to be loved and to be able to love. It's a shared chapter in all our lives. Once I thought I had it all figured out but it turns out that I was just miles away from understanding any of it. Yet, few of us ever truly figure it out, even after multiple attempts. However, I managed to find my beloved, and now, let me paint a picture of my chapter.

To wear their broken shoes
âI donât need your pity nor your sermon, I only need you to understand me.â Whenever my friends or fellow youth in our church share their personal problems before, I always say âOh, I have experienced that as well! You know what...â I tried to prove how I can relate to their situation by sharing what happened to me and by strongly agreeing with what they felt. I did it âpassionatelyâ every time thinking it was helpful and what they need.

Yes, I DO See Color
One of the most counterproductive ideas any human being could ever have is âI donât see skin colorâ. Idealistically we as the human race have been conditioned to believe that this mindset is the proper way to go about how we regard our fellow man, but Iâm here to tell you why this mindset is more negative than positive.

Love Letters to Humanity
In a world full of anger, hate, and prejudice, a code has been nearly lost â the universal language of kindness and optimism. This language can raise people, and bring them together, regardless of color and time despite conflict. It is this language of love letters.

Thousands of people in the Democratic Republic of the Congo mine cobalt, in high demand for electric vehicle batteries
The extraction of cobalt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo plays a vital role in the global shift towards electric vehicles. The demand for cobalt is particularly high due to its use in the production of batteries for electric vehicles. To accelerate the transition, the European Union has announced plans to ban the sale of new cars with internal combustion engines from 2035 onwards. The majority of the world's cobalt supply comes from Congo, but this mining activity has resulted in significant environmental and social issues in the region. Foreign companies, including those from China and Switzerland, have been exploiting the cobalt reserves for their gain. Additionally, artisanal mining in the Congo is a major source of cobalt supply, but it comes at a cost. Artisanal miners face dangerous working conditions and receive low wages. The Congolese government has struggled to effectively regulate the industry, further exacerbating the problems. Chinese companies have been known to manipulate scales and cobalt content, impacting the profits of the miners. The artisanal mining of cobalt in the DRC is exploitative and detrimental to the local population. The cobalt mines in the DRC primarily cater to Chinese entrepreneurs, resulting in wealth generation for foreign companies. Shockingly, children as young as seven are forced to work in these mines, putting their lives and health at risk. This supply chain has faced significant public backlash, as big tech companies and car manufacturers benefit from it. The heavy reliance on Congolese cobalt has become a concern for the transition to electric vehicles. To address this issue, Europe has set a goal of establishing 30 giga factories by 2035 to ramp up battery production. Northvolt, the first battery factory in Europe, aims to compete with Asian manufacturers. Furthermore, Finland possesses deposits of all the minerals required for battery production. Europe's objective is to have 30 million electric vehicles on its roads by 2030.
