Marriage is not so much a word as it is a sentence–a life sentence.
Pink Jobs, Blue Jobs, but Now They Are Purple
A very good friend of mine and his wife often discuss pink jobs and blue jobs. Confused?" "A man and his wife are arguing about who should bring the coffee each morning. The wife said, “You should do it because you get up first, and then we don't have to wait as long for our coffee.” The husband replied, “You are in charge of cooking around here, and you should do it! Because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee.” His wife quickly says, “No, you should do it. You're in charge of drinks. Plus, the Bible says that men should make the coffee." Her husband smirks and says, “You’re crazy. I don’t believe you; show me where it says that.” She goes to get the Bible. Then, she opens the New Testament. She points to the top of several pages. It clearly says, .... "HEBREWS."

Why Can’t We Get It Together? Dr. Umar Johnson on the Crisis of Black Love
Picture this: It’s a chilly January evening, the kind where you’re curled up with a hot drink, scrolling through YouTube, and you stumble across a conversation that stops you in your tracks. That’s what happened when I tuned into Hardly Initiated’s MLK Eve episode, featuring none other than Dr. Umar Johnson. You know, the kind of voice that makes you lean in, put your phone down, and really listen? Yeah, that’s the one.

Whispers Between Two Worlds
Amara was used to silence. The kind of weighty, clean, weary silence that filled the morning hospital corridors. She clocked off at the end of a twelve-hour night shift and plodded home in tired feet and hazy mind. The city barely began to stir: public transport blasted angrily, shutters were pulled up by shopkeepers, and a foggy softness clung to the streets.

I’m Not a Gift, but I Want a Gift
The screen washed her face in blue light. Marta scrolled through profiles like trading cards: the awkward ones—swipe left; the loudmouths with barroom grins—swipe left; the “I like sunsets and the sea” types—swipe left.

Two Paths, One Heart
Paris. Springtime. The city was alive that afternoon — golden sunlight slipping through the trees, laughter bouncing off cobblestones, and the faint smell of roasted coffee drifting through the air. Tourists lingered without hurry, as if time itself had slowed for them.

Chains of the Brothel: Part 1 Anita’s Silent Fall
In 1969, in a small, quiet village in Bengal, a child named Anita Das was born. The village was a place of stillness—narrow dusty lanes where children’s laughter echoed, fields that stretched endlessly in a green embrace, and evenings where the horizon glowed golden as the sun slipped away. Anita grew up with the innocence of the village stitched into her soul.

“The Night That Turned Into a New Beginning”
The night was supposed to be ordinary. Nothing more than the usual routine of walking home after a long, exhausting day. The streets were quiet, the kind of silence that feels heavier than noise. I remember feeling trapped inside my own head, weighed down by regrets and unfulfilled dreams. My life had fallen into a cycle: work, eat, sleep, repeat. It wasn’t living—it was just surviving.
