parents
The boundless love a parent has for their child is matched only by their capacity to embarrass them.
The Ghost of the House
Ahsan, Alina and Fizza were siblings. Fizza was young, but she always spoke the truth. Ahsan and Alina were scolded by their parents and grandparents for speaking the truth. One day, they planned to take revenge on Fizza. They decided on Friday, because on that day, their mother went to the Friday market and their grandfather went to listen to the sermon.

Healing Childhood Trauma Through Human Design
There is a wound we all carry — the wound of not being seen, heard, or held in the fullness of who we truly are. This wound is often born in childhood, when the most innocent parts of us were denied, ignored, or shaped to fit into a world that didn’t understand us. In trauma healing work, we call this the loss of authentic self. In Human Design, we might say it’s the distortion of our energetic blueprint.

The Truth About Making Friends as a Tired Mum
I think I’ve finally reached a point in my life where I’m happy with the number of friends I’ve made. When my husband and I moved to Perth a few years ago, I was desperate to make new friends as soon as possible. I attended meet-ups, attempted to make friends with work colleagues, and tried to force friendships with people I already knew living over here, but the only thing we really had in common was that we both lived in Perth.

The Real Reasons Why I'll Never Have Children
People say that having children is the miracle of life and a blessing. That may be true for most people, but as for me, I feel the complete opposite. I'm nearing 40, unmarried, and childless. The latter is completely my choice, and I'll explain the reasons why I don't see myself as a father anytime soon. I rarely discuss my love life, but I feel it's necessary for me to be open to everyone about what I hope to accomplish in the next several years. Unfortunately, fatherhood isn't one of them. These are my personal opinions about children, so I'm not persuading anyone to have or not have children. I leave that decision to you and everyone.

The Weight He Carried
1. Before the World Knew His Name In the town of Millstone—a place where no one locked their doors and everyone still knew the mailman's name—there lived a man named Jacob Rowe. He was not famous, nor did he want to be. He worked as a mechanic, fixing the cars of people he’d grown up with, drinking the same coffee at the same diner every morning.
