Bad habits
Confessions of a Former Alcoholic Part 19
I haven't had any alcohol for almost 12 days now, and staying sober has easily allowed me to control my thoughts and return my willpower to a normal level. It seems like it took some time for the thoughts coming from my subconscious to pass into my conscious mind.

The Taste of Lies
Introduction: They say words disappear once they’re spoken, but lies don’t. Lies stay. They cling to your tongue, coat your throat, and stain your memory. I’ve tasted lies—my own and those fed to me. And if truth is bread that sustains, then lies are sugar-coated poison: sweet at first, but slowly killing you.

Confessions of a Former Alcoholic Part 18
I said before that my ideas are the same sober or drunk. I now realize that it all comes down to spirituality and emotional management. I believe this is where the iron will comes from, although in the early stages of establishing willpower, it is best to avoid alcohol and cigarettes. This is not a priority for me since alcohol is permitted in my faith, but I have had no negative experiences with it; therefore, I cannot drink.

The Quiet Chapters That Shaped Me
I’ve been staring at this blank page for about twenty minutes now, wondering how exactly you’re supposed to tell someone who you are in a way that doesn’t sound completely self-absorbed or like a job interview gone wrong.

Your Biggest Teacher Will Always Be Pain
Introduction: The Shattering Sound of Silence Heartbreak doesn’t announce itself. It arrives quietly, like a thief, taking away the person you thought would stay forever. One moment, you’re making plans together; the next, you’re staring at your phone, reading a message that feels like a punch to the chest.

Confessions of a Former Alcoholic Part 16
I just had the goal of becoming an academic and an innovator throughout my almost eight years at university. We were trained to be idealistic by our lecturers, among other things. Now that the romanticism is over, we must adopt a more practical perspective.

A Blue Memory
It started with a flying chair. August 1st, 2021 — the kind of humid New York summer night that sticks to your skin like sweat and nostalgia. The kind of night when possibility hangs in the air, draped in disco lights and drowned beneath the bass of a now-shuttered gay club whose name I can’t quite say without feeling a pinch in my chest.

Letters to a Stranger I Once Loved #1
When I found the old box in the attic, I wasn’t expecting much. It was tucked behind some dusty photo albums, wrapped in a faded blue ribbon. The box looked like it hadn’t been opened in decades, and I hesitated before lifting the lid. Inside were dozens of letters, each tied together with string. On the top, in neat handwriting, was a note: To the stranger I once loved.

Confessions of a Former Alcoholic Part 15. Top Story - August 2025.
You may have heard this term before in the liberalism movement, but the human brain is distinguished from other animals by its will and ideas. I especially don't want to hear any religious terminology regarding my former faith anymore. Because after learning the realities about my former faith, I became disgusted with it and chose my own group.
