Marielle SabbagPublished 10 days ago in GeeksThe argument for how the world began and where is it heading. Can mankind really solve the mystery of the universe?
A profound quote attributed to Galileo Galilei, says; “You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself”. This emphasizes the idea that true understanding comes from self-discovery rather than being taught by someone else. It’s a principle that resonates with the Socratic method of teaching, which is based on guiding someone to their own realizations rather than simply providing them with facts.
Novel AllenPublished 11 days ago in GeeksRemembering Bernard Hill
It was a sad day today to check my Tolkien group chat, which consists of a few book club friends and nerds, and see the shared news that Bernard Hill had died. It was not how I wanted to start my summer break from school. (I'm still grading Finals and submitting grades to the registrar.)

The vita thread.
In the bustling city of New Alexandria, where skyscrapers pierced the clouds and neon lights danced through the night, lived a man named Ethan. He was a successful lawyer, admired by many for his sharp mind and unwavering determination. Yet, amidst the chaos of his career, Ethan had forgotten one fundamental truth: health is life.Each morning, he'd rush out of his sleek apartment, barely pausing to grab a piece of toast as he dashed to his office. Hours would melt away in the frenzy of legal battles and corporate negotiations. Lunch was often skipped, replaced by quick bites between meetings. Evenings blurred into nights as he poured over case files and contracts.His friends and family grew concerned, but Ethan brushed off their worries with a wave of his hand. "I'll slow down when I retire," he'd say, a strained smile on his lips. But deep down, he knew the toll his lifestyle was taking on him.One day, as Ethan sat in his office reviewing documents, a sudden pain shot through his chest. He froze, his breath caught in his throat. Panic surged through him as he struggled to calm his racing heart. With trembling hands, he dialed for help, the realization sinking in that his body was rebelling against his neglect.In the hospital, surrounded by beeping machines and concerned faces, Ethan had time to reflect. He thought about all the hours he'd poured into his work, sacrificing sleep, exercise, and proper nutrition. Yet, in that critical moment, none of it mattered. Without health, his success was meaningless.As he lay in the hospital bed, recovering from his scare, Ethan made a vow to himself. He would prioritize his health above all else, recognizing that it was the foundation upon which everything else rested. With newfound determination, he set out to make changes to his lifestyle.Gone were the days of skipped meals and sleepless nights. Ethan made time for regular exercise, whether it was a morning jog in the park or a yoga class in the evening. He stocked his kitchen with fresh fruits and vegetables, opting for nutritious meals over fast food and takeout.But the most significant change was in his mindset. No longer did he measure his worth by the number of cases won or clients satisfied. Instead, he found fulfillment in the simple joys of life – a leisurely stroll through the park, a shared meal with loved ones, the feeling of strength and vitality coursing through his veins.As weeks turned into months, Ethan's transformation became evident to those around him. His friends remarked on the newfound glow in his eyes, while his colleagues marveled at his increased productivity and focus. But more importantly, Ethan felt a sense of peace and contentment wash over him, knowing that he was finally living in alignment with his values.In time, Ethan returned to his legal practice, but with a newfound perspective. He approached his work with diligence and passion, but always mindful of the importance of balance. He took breaks when needed, knowing that rest was just as crucial to success as hard work.Years passed, and Ethan's career continued to flourish, but his greatest achievement was not measured in accolades or wealth. It was the realization that true success lay not in the pursuit of external validation, but in the nurturing of one's mind, body, and spirit.And so, as Ethan stood atop a hill overlooking the city that had once consumed him, he whispered to the wind, "Health is life," a reminder to himself and to all who passed by that the most precious gift we possess is the one we often take for granted.
