Consistency In All You Do
When you are going through the day to day journey that this life is, it can be very difficult to stay centered with all of the distractions that are prevalent in todays world. There is so much more information at all of our disposal than there has ever been in our history, and with all that knowledge and information, it can be quite a task in knowing which direction in life you wish to take, considering the number of directions is essentially limitless.

The Map of My Voice On Vocal.Media
The Map of My Voice On Vocal.Media I never expected to find my voice in the places I did. Not on stages, not in crowded rooms, not through conversations where people talk over each other. My voice grew in quieter corners, in the places where I didn’t need to perform, only to feel. If I were to draw a map of how I found it, it wouldn’t look like rivers or roads. It would look like moments that tested me, broke me, and somehow rebuilt me.

Laila and Majnoon
The Love That Refused to Die Long ago, in the wide and whispering deserts of Arabia, lived a young man named Qais. He belonged to a respected tribe, but he was known not for his strength or wealth—he was known for his heart. Qais had a rare gift for poetry, a softness that made him see beauty in every corner of the world. To him, the desert was never empty; it breathed, it sang, it carried secrets.

The Promise Under the Banyan Tree
The Promise Under the Banyan Tree Days passed gently after Zoya’s return to the village. The river, the fields, and even the dusty paths seemed to look different when she walked beside Amir. They still didn’t call it love out loud, but everyone who saw them knew what was slowly forming.

The Pickharness Principle
There exists a 14th-century play by a long-dead and long-anonymous individual known only by his (or her, but it was the 14th century, so-) highly aggrandizing epithet, The Wakefield Master. They are called that because they are considered to have authored four plays in the Wakefield Cycle, a series of biblical stories brought to theatre in Medieval England. Obviously these plays are written quite masterfully, otherwise the Wakefield Master would be considered the Wakefield Schlub. In whichever case, I would like to talk about one in particular, The Killing of Abel, which I, when I was at the tender age of 19, read for the first time so as to write what my professor called a “grotesquely long” research paper that annoyed her to no end. Most notably, the Wakefield Master’s Killing of Abel stood out to me because it is the first and only time I have ever encountered my favorite word in the wild.

the loop. Top Story - November 2025. Content Warning.
no one stopped. no one stopped and looked at me with care in their eyes when they found out. they looked at me with apathy and said they didn’t worry because my wounds weren’t as deep as someone else’s. they said they weren’t deep enough to do anything. so i went home and sliced through my skin and spent hours in the bathroom because the only solace i felt was in there. they looked at me and asked, why? i didn’t say anything, i could barely force myself to breathe. so they slapped me, again, why? my lips trembled, my palms sweat. how do i tell them that there are so many things creeping into my mind, into my head, into my heart that i couldn’t cope anymore, that breathing hurts, existing hurts, that i just want to be dead. how do i voice how much i want to disappear. so i say, i don’t know, another slap. this time it makes my ears ring. i pray they hit me harder.
