Beggar thy neighbor, harm thyself: Tariffs like Trump’s come with pitfalls
The phrase "beggar thy neighbor" refers to economic policies that a country adopts to improve its own situation at the expense of others. Tariffs, particularly those aggressively applied in the name of nationalism or economic protection, have long fallen into this category. However, the broader lesson of history is clear: such policies often backfire. The protectionist tariffs implemented during Donald Trump’s presidency, while designed to promote American manufacturing and reduce trade deficits, serve as a modern example of how these measures can ultimately harm not just trading partners, but the very economy they aim to protect.

Prayer and Love
Prayer and Love Love is not just a feeling, surrendering that feeling through prayer is a kind of worship. In the course of life, we experience many loves—friends, relatives, and special people. However, there is one thing that can increase the emotional and powerful nature of that deep love: prayer. The desire for him transforms into "He is good in my heart" when we love. And there is nothing greater than the well-being of a believer—if someone can pray for him.

The Mystery Behind France's Forgotten Medieval Villages
The Mystery Behind France's Forgotten Medieval Villages Introduction In the heart of France, beyond the buzzing cities and glossy tourist brochures, lies a world almost completely untouched by modern hands. Scattered across quiet countryside and hidden behind thick forests or rolling hills are villages that time simply forgot. These aren’t just small towns with low populations—these are places that hold echoes of ancient conversations, where walls still bear the scars of forgotten wars and pathways are etched with the footprints of long-gone peasants, knights, and merchants. But how did these villages vanish from modern memory, and why do they stir something so deep in the soul of anyone who visits? The answers lie buried in history, myth, and silence.
