The Forbidden Fruit
The closest thing to being the descendent of Adam (A . S) is that every Human being desires the Forbidden Fruit. We are made to believe THROUGH OUR INSTINCT OF DESIRE as well as INFLUENCE of others that our salvation lies in having the FORBIDDEN FRUIT even though there is A HIGHER GUIDANCE and EVIDENCE to the CONTRARY. YET the HEART desires what it desires and the WAYS OF THE HEART CANT BE EXPLAINED.

"Brightening the Path: How Paying Attention to the Little Things Can Change Your Life"
Have you ever experienced a moment that seemed small and insignificant, but ended up changing the course of your life? I certainly have. It was a hot summer day, and I was feeling lost and unsure of what path to take in my life. As I sat on the bus, lost in thought, an elderly woman sat next to me and struck up a conversation. At first, I was hesitant to engage in small talk with a stranger, but her warmth and kindness put me at ease.

One Sided Love
My heart is aching, longing for your touch, But you don't even notice me, it's too much. I dream of you, day and night, But you don't feel the same, try as I might.

Cold Coffee
I hate the rain. Especially this early. The looney hour. Who gets up at 5 am? I must be a madman I’m thinking to myself. A madman I'm thinking.

The Ripple Effect of Kindness
One small moment in my life that had a significant impact was a chance encounter with a homeless man on a street corner in a busy city. It was a hot summer day, and I was rushing to catch a train to get to work. As I approached the crosswalk, I noticed a disheveled man sitting on the sidewalk with a tattered sign that read, "Hungry and Homeless." I was initially tempted to walk past him, as I had a tight schedule and was caught up in my own world.

What Stories Should We Tell?
What stories are we allowed to tell? I would argue this question is as old as what constitutes literature and is especially provocative in our current socio-political climate. Everyone has a story inside them, but what stories are you allowed to tell? How far are you allowed to share them? With fiction, this is a complicated question. It can lead to angry fans who claim you did not portray a culture or gender correctly. It can lead to backlash from individuals who find an experience too narrow, even if it relates to your own experiences. However, creative nonfiction comes with its own problems as well. In some ways, the questions are more intense because nonfiction writers are bearers of truth. They discuss real people and real stories, which creates ramifications about everything they write. So, the ramifications don’t just land on them, but on other people as well. The truth is enough, but when is the truth too much? When do we hold back? When do we plow forward? What are willing to give up to have our stories told? The truth is not simple. It is complicated. But, sometimes a story just needs to be told. We decide what stories we are allowed to tell by deciding what is most important to us in our pursuits of the truth.

"The Absurdity of Existence"
Existentialism is a school of thought that emphasizes the individual's experience of existence in a world that is fundamentally meaningless. In this philosophy, the individual is the central figure, and the focus is on the meaning and purpose of their lives in the face of an inherently absurd and chaotic world. Two of the most influential existentialists in the history of philosophy are Søren Kierkegaard and Arthur Schopenhauer.
