This Terrace House is Split Into Half
Can you imagine living in the smallest terrace house in Malaysia? This terrace house was split into two houses mirroring each other. When we were passing by this neighbourhood in Bangsar, the striking steel cage facade captivated us. And we were curious about what’s inside.

Why Crowds Watch and Never Help. AI-Generated.
It was a perfect Tuesday afternoon, the kind where the sun feels like a gift. The downtown square was bustling with people on lunch breaks, tourists consulting maps, and students lounging on the steps of the old courthouse. In the midst of this, an elderly man, Mr. Evans, was walking his small, terrier mix when he suddenly stumbled. His leg buckled, and he fell hard onto the pavement, letting out a sharp cry as his head snapped back. The little dog yelped and strained at its leash.

The Porn Experiment: What Happens to Your Brain on Porn?. Content Warning. AI-Generated.

When Advice Felt Like Arrows: A Story of Dignity in Hard Times
Introduction: When Words Wound Instead of Heal It started with a well-meaning text from a friend: “You just need to stay positive. Everything happens for a reason.” I stared at the screen, exhausted, eyes swollen from a night of crying, and wondered—how can something meant to comfort feel so piercing?

Virtual Veil
It always starts the same way — a simple scroll. Lying on the bed, phone in hand, eyes half-focused, the thumb moves almost automatically. The feed flickers with color and perfection: gleaming brunch tables, vacations bathed in golden light, and smiles so wide they almost seem rehearsed. There’s a flicker of envy, faint but sharp. A quiet thought whispers, “Why doesn’t my life look like that?” But the scrolling doesn’t stop. It never does.

Being Hated Is Proof You’re Becoming Unstoppable
Nobody tells you this out loud, but if you’ve recently found yourself being hated for no clear reason, you may have crossed an invisible line — the line between ordinary and undeniable. They don’t hate you because you failed. They hate you because you didn’t. They don’t despise your effort. They despise your audacity. They don’t attack your flaws. They attack your movement. And if you listen closely, there’s a secret buried beneath every insult they throw: “You did what I wouldn’t.”

Digital Identity: How Social Media Shapes Who We Think We Are
In the contemporary hyperconnected age, the line between who we are offline and who we are online is increasingly blurry. The same person can be present in multiple digital spaces, each with their own rules, audience, and expectations. On Instagram, for example, one might have a carefully styled feed showcasing travel, achievement, and social success. On Twitter, they may post witty observations or political opinions. On LinkedIn, they market professional successes, expertise, and ambition. Each site demands a slightly different version of self—a virtual self intended to engage, impress, or influence.

You Were Made for This
We live in a world that constantly tries to define us by what we have, what we do, or what we look like. Expectations pile up, comparisons wear us down, and before long we forget who we really are. But God never called us to live by the world’s standards. He called us to live by His truth. You were created intentionally, designed for a purpose that no one else can fulfill. The same God who spoke galaxies into motion also spoke your name with love and purpose. No matter what season you are in, no matter what you have been through, God can and will use you right where you are.
