Settled in the core of the Appalachian Mountains, the humble community of Whitestone had forever been covered in secret. Its interesting roads and notable structures seemed like relics from some other time, immaculate by the walk of progress. Guests frequently commented on the town's extraordinary appeal, yet the individuals who remained longer detected something more profound — a secret story ready to be uncovered.

Static silos of the mind assert the truth that lies within ones desire, a discordant beacon that plays symphony of vanity, a noble cause is but an unplugged empty sound that covers actual melody of making each other’s existence a better one. A recognition that the quest for a magnificent objective is merely an empty tune.

I'm Still Here
Introduction This is for Hannah's "Back To The Party" Challenge which you can read here and enter: I included my attempt at Neil Young's "Love Is A Rose" when rehabilitating after losing the use of my left hand. At first, we were thinking possible stroke or heart attack but it was a trapped nerve.
Mike Singleton - MikeydredPublished 3 days ago in Confessions To wear their broken shoes
“I don‘t need your pity nor your sermon, I only need you to understand me.“ Whenever my friends or fellow youth in our church share their personal problems before, I always say “Oh, I have experienced that as well! You know what...” I tried to prove how I can relate to their situation by sharing what happened to me and by strongly agreeing with what they felt. I did it ‘passionately’ every time thinking it was helpful and what they need.

I can say social media makes it easy for anyone with an account to be a content creator. In other words, in the social media sphere, there are as many content creators almost as there are the audience. Do you know what that means? It is very challenging to generate content that attracts viewership and keeps the fans loyal. But that is not all of what it takes to be an influencer. See, there is the investment part, having the right camera, good setup, lighting gadgets, and not to mention the right attires. All that has to be paid for, meaning whatever content is created, has to be paid for in a way. But do we even pay to view YouTube reels?
Shore ThangPublished 4 days ago in ConfessionsYes, I DO See Color
One of the most counterproductive ideas any human being could ever have is “I don’t see skin color”. Idealistically we as the human race have been conditioned to believe that this mindset is the proper way to go about how we regard our fellow man, but I’m here to tell you why this mindset is more negative than positive.

In a world full of anger, hate, and prejudice, a code has been nearly lost — the universal language of kindness and optimism. This language can raise people, and bring them together, regardless of color and time despite conflict. It is this language of love letters.
AdelaidePublished 5 days ago in ConfessionsThousands of people in the Democratic Republic of the Congo mine cobalt, in high demand for electric vehicle batteries
The extraction of cobalt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo plays a vital role in the global shift towards electric vehicles. The demand for cobalt is particularly high due to its use in the production of batteries for electric vehicles. To accelerate the transition, the European Union has announced plans to ban the sale of new cars with internal combustion engines from 2035 onwards. The majority of the world's cobalt supply comes from Congo, but this mining activity has resulted in significant environmental and social issues in the region. Foreign companies, including those from China and Switzerland, have been exploiting the cobalt reserves for their gain. Additionally, artisanal mining in the Congo is a major source of cobalt supply, but it comes at a cost. Artisanal miners face dangerous working conditions and receive low wages. The Congolese government has struggled to effectively regulate the industry, further exacerbating the problems. Chinese companies have been known to manipulate scales and cobalt content, impacting the profits of the miners. The artisanal mining of cobalt in the DRC is exploitative and detrimental to the local population. The cobalt mines in the DRC primarily cater to Chinese entrepreneurs, resulting in wealth generation for foreign companies. Shockingly, children as young as seven are forced to work in these mines, putting their lives and health at risk. This supply chain has faced significant public backlash, as big tech companies and car manufacturers benefit from it. The heavy reliance on Congolese cobalt has become a concern for the transition to electric vehicles. To address this issue, Europe has set a goal of establishing 30 giga factories by 2035 to ramp up battery production. Northvolt, the first battery factory in Europe, aims to compete with Asian manufacturers. Furthermore, Finland possesses deposits of all the minerals required for battery production. Europe's objective is to have 30 million electric vehicles on its roads by 2030.
