HEALTH
Your health comes first .Lets face it ,we are dealing with hard times. We must take a stand for our health today. If there is anything this pandemic has taught us it is self preservation. With our hospitals overwhelmed and the shortage of essential workers , we must begin from within . What are your daily activities ? What are we putting in our bodies ? How much stress is in our lives today? we must ask ourselves these questions .
The time to come together is now . Placing our better judgement as a priority and figuring out how to fix this as best we can. The best way to start is with our mental health. Knowing that things must first get Dark before they get brighter. Be proud of who you are and what you have endured . Surviving trouble waters is something to be proud of and fortunate about . Some have lost loved ones and or know someone who was directly affected .
MENTAL HEALTH
There are places out there for example Disaster distress helpline , National suicide prevention , National domestic violence hotline ,National child abuse Hotline ,Veteran crisis and more . There is always someone there to listen in these hard times. You are not alone , we are all affected .
NUTRIENT
Another way to start by is changing the way you eat . Try growing your own food and be aware of whats going into your body. Find ways to give yourself the nutrients that your body require. There are so many resources out there that can teach you how to customize your own diet . Did you know that there is food out there that is recommended to you by simply knowing your blood type . By finding food thats good for you based on your blood type is a great way to start. There are certain things that you can eat and others that should be avoided. Sometimes when we find ourselves tired or with lack of energy , it could all be a result of what we are eating . Speaking to your doctor is also recommended for more serious underlying diseases and allergies .
Eating fruit and vegetables can really impact your life in a very positive way . Drinking more water can help flush out those toxins. Eating lean protein is also great for your immune system. If you do not like to eat certain food then taking your daily multi vitamin can be a great substitute for getting those nutrients.
Building and maintaining a strong immune system is crucial in our lives right now . Flu season is around the corner and we must maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Another great remedy is aromatherapy . There are so many different types of scents and they all can help heal different things. These essential oils enhance both physical and emotional health. Using a diffuser , spraying on your pillow , or simply smelling it can drastically help with breathing problems anxiety and more. Some are antibacterial and anti inflammatory . There is a lot of information in regards to that online.
Keeping a healthy diet is only a portion of the necessary steps to staying healthy . Working out plays an important role in your health . Staying active can help a number of health problems , such as increased blood circulation , reducing stress , and keeping a strong immune system . If you feel ill never ignore when your body is telling you something is wrong . Over thinking doesn't help either. Make sure to always stay up on your Physicals, so that if there are ever any problems you could catch it early .
Simply walking an hour a day can help keep your body active. Meditation and yoga is always a great way to calm the mind. Yoga is great for stress , balance , and bringing your body to a centered place. People from all over the world come together to have yoga gatherings . Another great way to relieve stress is getting a massage at least once a month . Massages can help you release toxins from your body and relax the muscles for better blood flow. Taking some personal time is so important to getting and keeping your life on the right track. Get out there and practice self love . Take good care of yourself so that you can be there for others in need . Pay it forward and get others to do the same . It's time we take a stand together and build a better world .

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

Einstein Predicted It, and Mars Has Just Confirmed It: Why Time Flows Differently on the Red Planet and How Space Missions Must Adapt
When Albert Einstein introduced his theory of relativity more than a century ago, it radically changed humanity’s understanding of time. He proposed that time is not absolute—it slows down or speeds up depending on gravity and motion. For decades, this idea felt abstract, confined to equations and thought experiments. Today, however, Mars has turned Einstein’s prediction into a practical challenge. Scientists have confirmed that time on the Red Planet flows at a slightly different rate than on Earth, and this difference is forcing future space missions to rethink how they operate. Time Is Not the Same Everywhere Einstein’s general theory of relativity states that gravity affects time. The stronger the gravitational pull, the slower time passes. Earth, being larger and denser than Mars, has stronger gravity. As a result, clocks on Mars tick slightly faster than clocks on Earth. The difference is tiny—measured in microseconds—but in the precise world of space exploration, even such small variations matter. Mars also has a different orbital speed and rotational rhythm. A day on Mars, known as a “sol,” is about 24 hours and 39 minutes long. This mismatch alone creates challenges for mission planners on Earth who must synchronize commands, data transmissions, and rover activities across two planets operating on different clocks. How Scientists Confirmed It Modern Mars missions rely on ultra-precise atomic clocks and advanced navigation systems. Spacecraft orbiting Mars and rovers on its surface constantly exchange signals with Earth. Over time, scientists noticed consistent timing discrepancies that could not be explained by engineering errors or signal delays alone. These differences matched exactly what Einstein’s equations predicted: time on Mars flows faster due to its weaker gravitational field. This confirmation is not just theoretical validation—it has real operational consequences. Navigation, communication, and scientific measurements all depend on accurate timekeeping. If mission controllers ignore relativistic time differences, errors can accumulate, potentially causing spacecraft to drift off course or miss critical mission windows. Why Time Differences Matter for Space Missions Space missions rely on extreme precision. When a rover drills into Martian soil or a lander touches down on the surface, timing errors of even milliseconds can lead to serious problems. Over months and years, microsecond-level discrepancies can grow into navigation errors spanning meters—or worse. Mars missions already operate with communication delays ranging from 4 to 24 minutes, depending on the planets’ positions. Adding relativistic time differences into the mix makes coordination even more complex. Engineers must account for how fast clocks tick on Mars compared to Earth to ensure commands arrive at the correct moment and data is interpreted accurately. Adapting to Martian Time To solve this problem, scientists are developing Mars-specific timekeeping systems. Instead of relying solely on Earth-based clocks, future missions may use dedicated “Mars time” standards. These systems would automatically adjust for gravitational and relativistic differences, allowing spacecraft, orbiters, and surface equipment to operate in sync with the planet they are exploring. NASA engineers already experience a preview of this challenge during rover missions. When a new rover lands on Mars, mission teams often live on “Mars time,” shifting their work schedules by about 39 minutes each day to match the Martian sol. While this practice helps with daily operations, it is exhausting for humans and impractical for long-term missions—especially those involving astronauts. Implications for Human Exploration As space agencies plan crewed missions to Mars, time dilation becomes more than a technical issue—it becomes a human one. Astronauts living on Mars will age imperceptibly faster than people on Earth due to weaker gravity. While the difference is far too small to affect health, it highlights how deeply relativity will shape life beyond our planet. More importantly, mission planners must design communication systems, navigation tools, and even legal and scheduling frameworks that account for different time flows. A future Mars colony may need its own official time standard, separate from Earth’s. A Reminder of Einstein’s Lasting Legacy Einstein’s theories were once considered purely academic. Today, they guide GPS satellites orbiting Earth and now help navigate missions millions of kilometers away on Mars. The confirmation that time flows differently on the Red Planet is another reminder that the universe follows rules that defy everyday intuition. As humanity prepares to explore deeper into space, Einstein’s insights are no longer just ideas—they are essential tools. Mars has confirmed what physics predicted long ago: time itself changes across the cosmos, and if we want to become a multi-planet species, we must learn to live by more than one clock.

The Devil's Cut
“Comrade, finally you’re awake.” The voice was smooth, sensual. A flickering incandescent bar was all that lit the white, sterile room. All Vladimir remembered was everything going black. He tried to move his arms and found them strapped to the gurney.
