The Year I Was No Longer Needed – 2025
It’s midway through January of 2026, and I’ve spent the last two weeks sick. In that stillness, I found myself reflecting deeply on 2025 and all the change that unfolded throughout the year. So much shifted in my life, and with that change came a quiet turmoil in my emotional well-being. I had to learn Continue reading

It’s Been A While
I’m sorry for the silence. This platform has always been a space I built for myself—to reflect, to process, to be honest. But for a while, it also became a reminder of just how much has happened. The truth is, I don’t think I ever fully processed the last 11 years of my life. But Continue reading

Brick by Brick
Nothing is built in a day. Everything meaningful—whether a dream, a love, or a life—is built, brick by brick. In the beginning, we know nothing. It’s only when we become curious, when we allow ourselves to care, that we begin to understand. And it’s through that understanding that we learn how to take the first Continue reading

Understanding My Anxiety
My anxiety has shaped so much of who I am today. It’s funny how, when you take the time to analyze it, you start looking back at who you were before it ever became part of your life. For me, I was a sociable kid with no fears of stepping up to people and sparking Continue reading

The Power of Purposeful Media in Childhood
Everything a child consumes, media-wise, becomes ingrained in their interpretation of the world and shapes how they view life around them. I’ve seen many arguments regarding the effects of media consumption on children, but I believe—from my own experience—that if parents teach the basic principles of life, children will subconsciously filter the media they consume.

The Calm in Desperation
When there isn’t much hope, what’s left is desperation. You cling onto everything and anything that gives you the strength to continue. When all odds are against you, the choices you have become quite clear, yet at the same time, these choices feel like a blade being held to your neck. Have you ever felt Continue reading

The Paradox of Control: Navigating Life Between Surrender and Responsibility
I believe that as human beings, we possess an innate desire to maintain control over our lives. Losing control feels like surrender—relinquishing our autonomy to someone else and hoping for the best. Yet with surrender comes an unsettling truth: we must trust those to whom we hand over that control, even when it feels difficult Continue reading

The Gift of Never Knowing
The limitations we set for our lives often stem from the knowledge imparted to us by others. When we learn about failure, it is typically through the lens of those who fear it. Their cautious actions, based on earlier experiences, often lead them to a place of comfort where they feel safeguarded from the pains Continue reading

From Knowledge to Wisdom: The Power of Discipline
We spend our lives being taught to learn as much as we can, believing that our value is measured by the knowledge we possess and how we can transform that knowledge into tangible achievements.

Embracing Humanity: Finding Unity in a Divided World
In a world where constant news highlights the pain and suffering around us, divisions based on race, culture and opinions become more pronounced. Unity becomes an after thought, overshadowed by the fear of judgement and the need to be right. We tend to view others as hostile because of there opinions and even so because Continue reading
