Life Can Be
Life can be short but exciting, it can be long and miserable—essentially it is up to us. How we divide our time for what we need and what we want can be the determining factors, but not the only ones. We must also take into account our hearts, we can’t just skip past the beats of our hearts as if each beat doesn’t count towards something. From the agony of hurt to the rush of joy and pleasure. The heart is a muscle with the capability to be strengthened or weakened and every pump gives us that much more life, energy, movement. Every battle between emotional distress and healing that we survive is preparation, making us war ready—giving us an extra beat. Of course it is always easier to say this than it is to understand and missed steps along the walks of our journeys are necessary for they show us our true selves, just like a baby crawling into footsteps.

Living through Hurricane Milton
I write to relax. At this moment, October 9, 2024, 1:04 pm, near the Tampa Bay area, I’ve set my phone far from me to stop the obsessive compulsion to refresh my favorite five weather apps. I have 15 of those apps on my phone. I really should take my smart watch off as well. I’ve never had so many notifications from Ring, NextDoor, Facebook, NWS, FEMA, EBS, and even Alexa. The screeching emergency alerts from the NWS cause me to jump out of my skin in panic. This is a sampling of messages that have dinged on my phone, watch, iPad, and computer once every 30 seconds:

The Hiring of Highly Qualified Professionals for Operational Roles
The Brazilian job market has undergone significant changes in recent years, especially concerning the demands made by companies when hiring new professionals. A worrying trend that has emerged is the hiring of individuals with advanced academic qualifications, such as post-graduate degrees, MBAs, and even master’s degrees, for operational roles, often with low salaries and working conditions that include excessive demands. This practice raises important questions about human resource management, the lack of opportunities suitable for these professionals' qualifications, and the potential disqualification or poor management of Human Resources (HR) departments.

The Need to Be Strong: The Reasons Why Men Don't Discuss Their Emotions
Are you a girl? Why are you crying?! Boys don't cry, they are meant to lead the family and be the bearers of the family. Our society has conditioned both men and women about the way they should react and behave to be deemed normal and acceptable in a social setting. It is harrowing to see societal standards and perceptions of how both genders should act and lead their lives, impacting individuals to embrace their authentic light and nurture their needs and wants.

Rot & Blather
This is the part I've never been good at … The groveling. The crawling over glass shards to return to the feet of something I thought was well behind me ... Unless it is a person standing directly in front of me — in which I can hollow myself out for, dedicate my every touch and movement to tribute a pleasure — what’s behind me is just that. Behind me.

In our modern world, meeting the expectations of those around us, working tirelessly to the point of insanity, and racing towards the next big goal are all highly valued. Sadly, we fail to understand that nothing outside of ourselves—not society's opinion of us, not a job, not our performance at work, not social deadlines—matters more than our mental and physical health. In a recent tragic case, we discuss a vibrant young professional. Workplace culture and excessive pressure to perform were the reasons behind Anna Sebastian Perayil's death.

Alone no more
Have you ever had one of those days where everything just feels... neutral? It’s not exactly bad, not exactly good—just an overwhelming sense of grey, as though life has muted itself. I’ve been here for a while now, caught in this void, and I’m not sure how to get out. It’s like I’ve been waiting—no, longing—for something, or maybe someone. Someone I haven’t spoken to in what feels like forever. The feeling hangs over me like a shadow, like a question I’m afraid to answer.
