Mama's Spicy Chicken Soup
There are a few recipes that my mother made that really stood out a lot to me, and one of them is her medicine soup - essentially. It's a spicy chicken soup she traditionally always made with chicken thighs or legs, and I, myself, preferred it with the thighs, but nevertheless. This soup is truly magical, and the healing it brings when you are suffering from a cold or some allergies is a welcome relief.

Love Her Sacredly
Dear Man, After said all, regard this print as holy writ, if you will; hear what I have to say, for it is above knowledge; it is a thing of the heart. It represents the female view, the desires of her heart she doesn't share, and the unsaid prayers her body is talking.

Hills Like White Elephants
Unpacking Hemingway’s Silent Tension Ernest Hemingway’s short story Hills Like White Elephants is one of the most widely analyzed pieces in modern literature. First published in 1927, the story offers a minimalist yet powerfully emotional look into a conversation between a man and a woman waiting for a train in Spain. On the surface, it appears to be a simple dialogue. However, its deeper meanings reveal themes of communication, choice, gender roles, and power dynamics—all hidden beneath Hemingway’s characteristic iceberg style.

Happy Mother's Day 2025: Thoughtful Wishes, Heartwarming Messages, and Creative Ideas
It’s a funny thing to think of a mother. I remember on mother's day, my sister used to try her best to make Mother’s Day gifts for mom herself. She couldn’t do it alone so she would rope the neighbors and me in. If I did not help, she would try to make me angry by making the gift lose some of it’s splendor, and thus I assisted. It’s nice to remember how excited my sister continuously used to be because in the end my sister used to offer a lot of feats, had splendid leadership charisma, and tried her best in concealing the gift.

What is the real meaning of mother?
The word 'mother' can have two meanings. One meaning comes from ignorance, and the other meaning comes from understanding. The first mother has only affection; the second mother has maternal feelings. Animals also have affection, but only a few mothers know maternal feelings. Motherly feelings mean giving birth in the true sense - one birth of the body and the second birth of knowledge. There is no love in affection; it only has hormones. A real mother is one who knows love. For that, the mother herself will have to be enlightened.
