Family Matters
Entering adulthood has been a relatively smooth experience for me, largely because I have focused on learning from those who came before me to avoid making the same mistakes. However, it turned out to be much more difficult than I initially expected, primarily because I was resistant to the conclusions of the lessons passed on by others. Over time, I found myself coming to the same conclusions, which is why I no longer resist those lessons. Key lessons include choosing friends wisely, not trusting too easily, and protecting one’s reputation. I often let my emotions lead me down a different path, believing my friendships would be different or thinking we were smarter than our parents, so we wouldn’t fall into the same traps. However, life has reminded me that while time may pass, human nature remains consistently the same.

The Warm Embrace of Self-Acceptance
The Warm Embrace of Self-Acceptance It takes years to build your trust but it takes a moment, a simple rustle of words through the air, a singular action that dwindles the faith we have in someone. Life has always had its flair of shedding and unwavering our realities with the ones we need to embrace, of robbing us of the sturdy land of certainty and plopping us into the ocean of the unknown, stumbling us into the blatant truth of existential being, making us learning the lessons the hard way.

Let’s break down why inflation can actually be beneficial.
Inflation is a complex issue that affects many aspects of the economy. In 2022, the world witnessed unusually high inflation rates. In the U.S., U.K., and Eurozone, these rates peaked at around 10%. This means that, on average, prices had increased by 10% compared to the prior year. Many people who observed the situation were not surprised. Thankfully, inflation has since moved closer to a normal range, though it still remains somewhat elevated. However, it’s important to clarify that the data showing a decrease in the rate of inflation does not indicate that prices are falling. Instead, it suggests that prices are rising at a slower pace. This is a disappointing reality for consumers.

A Soldier's Keepsake
In a small town tucked away in the Midwest, old men gathered at a local diner every Saturday morning. They called themselves the "Veterans’ Breakfast Club," a tradition that had started decades ago when they first returned from war. These men, now with silver hair and faces etched by time, came together not just to share coffee and toast but to relive memories that connected them in a way no one else could understand.

On survival.
On survival. The question of existence still haunts me in the silence of the stillness that loneliness brings with it. To be or not to be, to exist in the coexistence of dualistic forces, to dance with the uncertainty or to play it along the periphery, what I hold certain, has always questioned me, bemoaned me. Truth be told, I beheld the cry for help when its absence called in silent whispers around the blanket of dwelling and absconded its abundant presence over me. There is a painting that traces the bits of serenity in my life, the colors that adorn the hues of the almighty run deep through the veins of my soul to find the brevity of pain. I glance at the picture of Lord Krishna, reminiscing the days that passed by. Darkness sets its sterility in the brimming light of today, as the dawn of today paints itself in the colours of the dusk of yesterday.
