When I Stopped Chasing Happiness
For a long time, I thought satisfaction was something I needed to pursue. The more I sought after it, the more tricky it appeared. Society and web-based entertainment continually advised me that satisfaction was an objective - something I would reach once I had the ideal work, a much-enriched home, and a flawless life. However, the harder I pursued, the more depleted I felt, and joy appeared to be further away.

the history of Neologisms
While the term "neologism" itself wasn't coined until the 18th century, the practice of creating new words is as old as language itself. As languages evolve and cultures interact, new words are constantly being formed to describe new concepts, technologies, and experiences.

'Frighten Me! Please?' Winners!
As I write this, there are exactly 100 minutes left in October. Yes, friends and neighbors, sadly, the spooky season is coming to a close. Fortunately, if you're like me, you don't have to wait another year to read a good horror story or watch a spine-tingling thriller on Netflix. These days, authors and Hollywood directors alike push out the chilly stuff every month. Woohoo! Still, I'm saddened to see my favorite month come to an end.

Time Keeps on Slipping...
"Life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans", is a quote often attributed to John Lennon. I've been known to say that I'm 'making good time but not getting anywhere'. My grandmother used to call it 'spinning your wheels'. It all means the same thing. The things we do can get in the way of the things we want.

The Sky silent Dance
Chapter 1: The Night Begins It was a quiet evening in the small town of Cedar Pines, where trees stretched towards the heavens, framing a breathtaking canvas of stars every night. People here lived simple lives, enchanted by the beauty that surrounded them. And no one appreciated it more than Maya, a 12-year-old girl with an insatiable curiosity for everything above her head. She would spend hours lying on her rooftop, her eyes fixed on the stars, wondering what secrets they held. Her grandmother, Nana June, often joined her, sharing stories about constellations and the spirits that danced through the sky.

What's Its Name?. Top Story - November 2024.
Names have power. We answer to them, sign them, give nicknames, and when all else fails to ring true we change them. The idea that knowing the name of a thing or a person gives power is ancient and crosses many cultures, religions, and beliefs. bestowing a name grants honor and even power to the name-r over the name-d.
