Discovering Happiness: Six Things to Look Forward to in 2025
Everybody posts about their accomplishments of success, competence, grit, and determination at this time of year. How beautifully their vision boards have come to life in the splendour of their captivating lives! Even though it is a wonderful accomplishment for everyone who had a year full of love and happiness, it is crucial to keep in mind that the life that is portrayed on social media is the culmination of a person's greatest moments throughout their entire life. Putting oneself out there and sharing their happiness on their platform is fantastic, but in a society where comparison is so widespread. 2024 has been a challenging year for me, as it has been for many others.. Everybody has experienced their share of setbacks and victories this year, and each person's level of pain varies.

The Need to Be Strong: The Reasons Why Men Don't Discuss Their Emotions
Are you a girl? Why are you crying?! Boys don't cry, they are meant to lead the family and be the bearers of the family. Our society has conditioned both men and women about the way they should react and behave to be deemed normal and acceptable in a social setting. It is harrowing to see societal standards and perceptions of how both genders should act and lead their lives, impacting individuals to embrace their authentic light and nurture their needs and wants.

A Forward Trajectory

Through The Bareness Of 2024- My Journey
Life in its brevity often feels burdensome, yearning for us to be free of all the turbulence that stirs up its breaths in our hearts. How beautiful would life be if we let go of pain, anger, sadness, grim! I wish we had built-in programming that would delete all the moments and experiences that stirred catastrophic fires and raged war and kindled and whooshed the fire within us simultaneously!

What's Going On With J. Delaney-Howe?. Top Story - December 2024.
This piece will be slightly different from what I usually write, although there hasn't been much writing. I'm just going to share some things that have been going on in my life: things I am feeling and concerned about. There will be plenty of run-on sentences, and that's okay. This piece isn't for grammar technicality. I may bounce around a little bit, but it will always come together at the end. So, will this probably be a one-sided conversation? I don't know what it is, and it doesn't matter. This is my story of the last 6 months of my life, good and bad. So stick with me- this could be a good ride!
