Cinderella: Her Own Fairytale
The lessons we were taught seemed to be proven wrong when we infused our minds by watching Rapunzel escape the tower with the hero and Prince's quest to find Cinderella. When a prince broke the death curse of Sleeping Beauty, all those messages didn't seem to hold true. We were brought up watching these TV shows that polluted our minds with the idea that a Prince Charming would come to our rescue. But we forgot that nobody can truly rescue us from that deep hole; only we have the power to navigate the darkness, seek the light, and illuminate our lives. I feel concerned for all those young minds who fantasize about these heroes and fall into the trap of wrong people, who can give you butterflies but can't provide a roof. These toxic ideals have tarnished the reputation of goodness and heroism. Young girls who believe there's a prince waiting for them are utterly mistaken. The prince they think is waiting for them is out there pursuing his own interests. So, girls, it's time to move past the unrealistic heroism we've craved from men because no man is truly capable of being your hero. In fact, men often lack qualities, depending on women for their every need. What do real heroes do? They save the girl from bad situations and then make her a slave for the rest of her life by creating a home that she can't truly call 'ours.' You might consider me a feminist, but I believe there's no such thing as heroes and princes. We have ordinary boys with their below-average needs and demands, which women are obliged to fulfill under the threat of traditional roles or misuse in the name of love.

Addressing Ghana's Open Urination Issue. Content Warning.
In the bustling streets of Ghana, it has become an all too familiar sight - walls adorned with the simple yet stern warning, "Do Not Urinate Here." This graffiti is ubiquitous, spreading its message across cities, towns, and villages in various colors and styles, some even etched in charcoal. It's a message that attempts to deter a growing cultural norm in Ghana – open urination.

What's In A Name? The Enduring Language Of Bias
The language we use to speak and to write is not accidental. It is the essence of our identity - a powerful indicator of who we are, and what we stand for. Language defines us, as it shows how we see ourselves. We will only ever use words we are completely comfortable with; the words that come easily to us without thinking; the ones our family and friends use; the words that tell where we are coming from and where we are going. Thus the language we use identifies us and our mindsets, revealing what we value and care about by the specific words we choose to utter.

Letters to Trump: Reflections, Critiques, and Hopes
Barely any presidents in American history have had as enduring an effect on the country’s consciousness as Donald J. Trump. Whether you saw his organization with extreme assistance or phenomenal doubt, there’s no denying that he was a polarizing figure who evoked convincing sentiments and ignited excited discussions. The composition of “Letters to Best” by residents, scholarly people, and, surprisingly, world pioneers offering their viewpoints, reactions, and expectations for the 45th Leader of the US is a charming peculiarity that has arisen as the residue chooses his time in office.

Water Only diet
Have you ever heard of something called water fasting? Well, it’s a type of fast that restricts everything except, well, water. Most people only water fast for 72 hours at most, but what if you did this for the rest of your life? You’d be fine, right?

Unraveling Time's Palindrome: Deconstructing Christopher Nolan's "Tenet"
In the dim glow of cinematic anticipation, the latest offering from the esteemed yet enigmatic director Christopher Nolan emerges—like an intricately woven tapestry of reality and imagination. "Tenet," they call it, a palindrome title hinting at the mysterious entanglements of time inversion and the tantalizing promise of a narrative that both begins and ends in a mirror-like symmetry.
