Theirs no hard truth than this statement
Life Is Too Short, and We All Should Live It As Per Our WillThe truth about life is that we are all going to die sooner or later. It is an uncomfortable fact, but with time, it engrains the importance of living life on your own terms. It is true that all of us have seen people who spend their lives crumpled in seeking validation or admiration from others around them. No matter how hard they try, they end up thinking that elements of greatness are present in the eyes of people and not within the individuals themselves. Which is indeed a false perception and in fact the core of my healthy living angle.

AUDIOBOOKS WERE MADE FOR BLIND PEOPLE
As a compulsive reader of physical books, I tend to cue up an audiobook not so much as a sonic counterpart to print but as a portable verbal atmosphere to accompany some errand or everyday hustle. I don’t drive and haven’t had a valid driver’s license in twenty years, so I never have the opportunity to tackle, say, all of “Beowulf” or “Don Quixote” during a regular commute. But I’ve taken in “The Waste Land” while waiting in line at the post office, listened to Richard Feynman explain electromagnetism on the 7 train out to Citi Field, heard Marx anatomize the commodity form while walking trails in Van Cortlandt Park, had Iris Murdoch’s swirling sentences in my earbuds while ordering an everything bagel (lightly toasted). Once at a Key Food in Riverdale, I became so entranced by the mellifluous unctuousness of Jeremy Irons reading “Lolita” that, in my fugue state, the names of the different Triscuit varieties on the shelves were mystically annexed to Humbert Humbert’s monologue: “Ladies and gentleman of the jury, fire-roasted tomato, smoked gouda, hint of sea salt, avocado cilantro and lime.”

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins
I’m a big fan of the Hunger Games series. So of course, I was really looking forward to reading this prequel about Coriolanus Snow’s past, and the book didn’t disappoint. It’s not perfect, by any means, but the interesting concepts, powerful moments, and solid character depictions/developments throughout the novel deeply impressed me and made the book worth reading.

SIMON SQUIBB… What is your dream?
You guys, do you have a dream? This is the question I heard the most today. How coincidental, as I am truly feeling lost, unsure of what to do, what kind of job to look for, and whether to stay in my hometown or move somewhere far away.

Good morning to our souls . AI-Generated.
Once upon a time, in a small village nestled between rolling hills, there lived a wise old woman named Elara. She was known throughout the village for her kind heart and profound understanding of the human spirit. Every morning, as the sun rose and painted the sky in hues of orange and pink, Elara would sit outside her humble cottage, sipping herbal tea and greeting the day with a gentle smile. One chilly morning, as the first light of dawn broke, Elara noticed a gathering of villagers outside her door. They looked weary and burdened, their faces clouded with worry. The village had been facing a series of unfortunate events: crops had failed, disputes among neighbors had escalated, and a sense of despair loomed over the community. Sensing their need for comfort, Elara invited them to sit with her. “Good morning to our souls,” she said softly, her voice warm like the sun’s rays. “Today, let us share our burdens and lift each other’s spirits.” The villagers hesitated at first, but as they sat together, they began to open up about their troubles. One by one, they shared their fears and frustrations, their voices intertwining like the branches of the ancient trees surrounding them. As they spoke, Elara listened intently, nodding with understanding. She knew that sometimes, the act of sharing one’s pain could lighten the load. After they had poured out their hearts, she smiled gently and said, “Let us remember the beauty that surrounds us, even in difficult times. Nature has a way of healing our souls.” With that, Elara suggested they take a stroll through the village. The villagers followed her, and as they walked, she pointed out the vibrant flowers blooming in the gardens, the laughter of children playing, and the songs of birds welcoming the dawn. “Look around you,” she urged. “Each morning is a gift, a chance to start anew. Let us not forget to appreciate the small joys that life offers.” As they continued their walk, Elara led them to a nearby meadow where the grass was kissed by morning dew. “Here, let us gather,” she said, motioning for them to sit in a circle. “Let us take a moment to breathe deeply and connect with our souls.” The villagers closed their eyes, inhaling the fresh air, feeling the warmth of the sun on their faces. In that serene moment, they began to feel a sense of calm wash over them. Elara then encouraged them to share one thing they were grateful for. At first, it was difficult, but as they began to speak, the atmosphere shifted. One villager mentioned the support of friends, another spoke of the beauty of the changing seasons, and yet another expressed gratitude for the food they had, even if it was scarce. With each expression of gratitude, the heaviness in the air began to lift. After a while, Elara stood up and said, “Now, let us carry this gratitude back to our homes. We may not be able to change our circumstances overnight, but we can change the way we perceive them. Let us greet each day with a grateful heart and a renewed spirit.” The villagers nodded, their hearts lighter and their faces brighter. As they made their way back to the village, they felt a sense of unity and hope. The simple act of sharing their burdens and focusing on gratitude had transformed their outlook. From that day forward, the villagers made it a tradition to gather each morning to greet the day together. They would share their worries, their joys, and their gratitude, reminding one another that even in the darkest times, there was always a glimmer of light.

Book Review: People Kill People. Content Warning.
Violence has increased all over the world over the last few years. Gangs having turf wars, school shootings, robberies and other kinds of shootings. We have had 9/11 when the Twin Towers fell. I was in second grade when that happened. I was in music class when they dismissed us earl to go home. Years later we had Sandy Hook, The Pulse Club and the Boston Marathon Bombing. I still remember the tale from my coworker from Target when she had walked out to her car to go home, she had heard the bombs go off. She had thought it was thunder. She found out later that the sounds she heard was the bombs going off. The Braintree Mall was dead for hours, and we couldn’t reach out to our loved ones as they had turned off cell service in case of another bomb.
