The Weight of Unspoken Goodbyes
Have you ever felt a sharp, persistent ache in your chest, a grief that lingers long after a significant ending, simply because there was no real goodbye?

The Illusion of Infinite Funds: Why Credit Cards Make Us Feel Richer Than We Are You walk into a store “just to look.” A shirt catches your eye.
