“The Phone Call That Changed My Mother Forever”
It was just an ordinary Tuesday night. My mom stood at the kitchen counter, chopping onions for her famous lentil soup. I was helping her toast bread, the smell of garlic and butter swirling in the air. The radio played quietly in the background—one of those stations that always seemed stuck in the 90s. It felt like one of those rare, calm moments when everything was just… right.

Why I Blocked My Crush Without Saying a Word — And Slept Better That Night
I didn’t say goodbye. I didn’t offer an explanation. I didn’t leave a dramatic paragraph for closure. I just hit “block” — and then, for the first time in weeks, I slept through the night.

🔥 Upcoming World War 3: Could It Happen? The shadow of a third world war has haunted global conversations for decades. Since the devastation of World War II, the world has enjoyed an uneasy peace, punctuated by regional conflicts and cold war rivalries.

When I Chose Peace Over Pleasing: The Day My Silence Stopped Serving Everyone but Me
I used to be proud of how “easygoing” I was. The one who didn’t make waves. The one who could be counted on to “understand.” I became the friend who always said yes, the partner who never argued, the daughter who swallowed her pain with a smile.

I'm Not Who I Was. And That's the Whole Point
I used to bend until I broke. If you knew me five years ago, you’d remember the girl who always smiled, said yes when she wanted to scream no, stayed quiet when she should’ve spoken up, and made herself small just to keep the peace. That version of me was easy to love—at least for everyone else. But she nearly killed me.

I Cut My Finger With a Chainsaw
They say curiosity kills the cat, but in my case, curiosity nearly cost me a finger. On a crisp Saturday morning, I found myself staring at a shiny new chainsaw that wasn’t even mine. My neighbor had left it in my garage after a storm took down part of his fence. I'd never used one before, but the temptation was too strong. I wish I could say it ended with a clean job and a pat on the back. Instead, it ended with real blood, a hospital visit, and an unforgettable lesson I carry to this day.

I Dated Someone I Met in the Comment Section — Here's How It Changed My Life
It was a random Tuesday night. I was deep into one of those social media scroll holes—bouncing from video to video, until I landed on a hilarious post about long-distance relationships. I laughed, hit the like button, and absentmindedly typed a witty comment.

I'm Tired of Always Being The One Who Start Everything. AI-Generated.
You know that feeling when you're always the one who has to start the conversation? Always the one who checks in first, who asks how someone's doing, who sends the first message. Yeah, that's me. That has been my reality for as long as I can remember.

Worth
Introduction I took a selfie wearing a favourite shirt for a poem/playlist that I wrote which you can check out here: I thought I would use the picture for my Facebook Avatar, and yes, you expect a few likes, but at the moment they are at sixty, and that got me thinking, possibly spurred on by a quote from Ozzy Osbourne, who we just lost.

My Grandmother’s Diary Told Me a Secret No One Was Supposed to Know
When my grandmother died, she left behind a wooden box that smelled like rosewater and forgotten years. It sat on the top shelf of her closet, beside a jar of old buttons and a photo of her late husband in uniform. No one had touched it in decades.

The way he made me feel
It all started with a wave to a kid, who came like an angel who made a path in my love life. Our first meeting wasn't so dramatic like Hollywood movies or any K-drama moment. His smile towards me felt so genuine, soft enough to catch my attention. It felt so secret that it didn't felt like as if i was in love. I saw something in his eyes.... a lightness, a kindness, something that made the room feel less cold. For the first time in my life, i felt noticed. I have had crushes before but it never felt so unreal like he made me feel.
