Why Modern Love Feels So Intense — Yet Ends So Fast

Social Media Causing the Decline in Humanity?
From the moment we wake up to the moment we fall asleep, many of us are glued to screens filled with social feeds, infinite scrolls, and algorithmic suggestions tailored to grab — and keep — our attention.

Why Letting Go of Perfection Changed the Way I Write—and Think. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
Introduction: The Quiet Pressure Behind Every Sentence For a long time, I believed that good writing had to sound confident, polished, and complete from the very first draft. Every sentence felt like a performance. Every paragraph carried pressure. I wasn’t just writing ideas—I was judging them in real time, questioning whether they were smart enough, original enough, or worthy of being read by anyone else.

I Didn’t Want to Be Rich — I Wanted to Breathe
I used to say I wanted to be rich. It sounded acceptable. Responsible. Ambitious. It made adults nod approvingly and strangers respect my exhaustion. Wanting money is a socially approved dream; wanting rest is treated like a character flaw.

New Year’s Reflection
Well, well, well. Another year has passed — and with that, another year of me being on Medium is on the verge of starting. Offline, my life has been getting somewhat more hectic.
