When it comes to breakups, pain is inevitable, but Humans thinks that suffering is optional.

How to Be Brave
Fear is a universal human experience. It manifests in many forms—whether it’s the anxiety before a big presentation, the dread of facing a challenging conversation, or the paralyzing terror of stepping into the unknown. Despite being a natural response to danger or uncertainty, fear can often hold us back from reaching our full potential. Yet, bravery is not the absence of fear, but rather the ability to move forward despite it. In this article, we will explore practical steps to overcome fear and anxiety, and how you can develop the courage to face life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.

Why Love Makes Us Hold On
Love is a bit like quicksand, isn’t it? You don’t fall into it carefully. You don’t calmly decide to sink. One moment, you’re standing solid, confident, and sure of yourself, and the next, you’re pulled under with no warning, no way out. The harder you fight, the deeper you’re drawn. And when you love someone deeply, truly, you don’t just walk away — not really. You might tell yourself you want to go, that it’s too much, too painful, too exhausting. But unless they push you away, unless they shut the door behind you, lock it, and throw away the key, a part of you always stays. And that’s because love is its own force — unyielding, stubborn, eternal. It clings to you even when your logical mind keeps telling you to let go.

When Heartbreak Feels Like a Stone on Your Soul
You know that feeling — when your chest physically hurts, like someone is pressing down with the weight of the world, a suffocating kind of heaviness that makes it hard to even breathe. They call it heartbreak, but that word feels so neat, doesn’t it? So… insufficient. Because when it happens, when someone you love is suddenly out of reach, it doesn’t feel like your heart is merely broken. It feels crushed. Like it’s been ground into dust under some immovable rock.

Breaking up is hard enough, but deciding whether to stay friends with an ex can be just as tricky.

The Heart's Quiet Sacrifice
I’ll be honest with you: love has this uncanny ability to wreck us in ways we don’t always expect. I mean, think about it — we walk into it with this big, open heart, full of hope, trust, and silly daydreams. But every time we’re hurt — whether it’s betrayal, rejection, or simply unrequited love — it feels like a piece of us just… disappears. Like we pour out one irreplaceable drop of ourselves each time the grief sets in. And we don’t even fully realize it’s happening until, one day, it feels like there’s nothing left to give.

The socioeconomics of humanness
The socioeconomics of humanness lies in the beauty of balancing the aspects of togetherness and isolation. In a world where life coincides with the duality of forces, oscillating between the forces of light and dark, beauty and hate, love and hatred, birth and death, humans are the most endearing and detrimental beings ever to exist. The prowess of intellect and communication, with the stellar mind that created the strides of evolution and lapses of civilization, is undeniably the most striking aspect of what makes humans the most resilient beings of them all. Yet we fall into the pits of downfall, where we forget the radiance of hope, the enclasp of a mother’s warmth, the depth of kindness, the trance that we fall into from time to time although harrowing, is what makes us human. We have to go through a phase of failure and aloofness to fully embrace the goodness of bliss and the peonies of gratitude that embellish the strides of our existential realm.
