Voynich Manuscript
In 1912, an antiquarian named Wilfrid Voynich purchased a collection of old books from a Jesuit college near Rome. Among them was a manuscript unlike anything the world had ever seen. Its pages were filled with strange looping script, bizarre plants that do not exist on Earth, astronomical diagrams that made little sense, and illustrations of women bathing in mysterious green pools. The book was written in an unknown language, and to this day, more than a century later, no one has been able to read it.

Shattered Alibi
I learned early on that the truth has a way of finding you, no matter how carefully you try to hide from it. But I didn’t expect it to hit me on a Thursday night, in the middle of a casual dinner with friends, over something I swore was a “harmless” little lie.

Mind’s Edge
I’ve always wondered what it feels like to stand at the edge—not the edge of a cliff, or a building, but the edge of your own mind. That strange place where thoughts pile up like runaway trains, where decisions feel heavier than gravity, and where every “what if” spins into a thousand “why nots.”

Glitch in My Life
I’ve always thought of life as a program. You input your dreams, press “enter,” and—if everything goes right—you get the outcome you imagined. But then, like any poorly coded system, reality throws you an error message: “Unexpected glitch. Please restart your expectations.”

Step by step
They told me to think of my recovery like assembling Ikea furniture: one confusing piece at a time, a handful of Allen keys I didn’t know I owned, and a manual that might as well be written in ancient Swedish. I remember standing in the physiotherapy room, two parallel bars glinting under fluorescent light, and feeling like a man who had shown up to a dance-off with two left feet and a broken rhythm.

Vulnerability
When I was younger, I thought strength was synonymous with silence. I thought it meant never admitting weakness, never crying in front of anyone, and never letting anyone see the messy, chaotic parts of me. I believed that being “tough” meant carrying everything alone and smiling through the pain like a hero in a bad action movie.

One Door, Two Worlds
I first noticed the door on a day when everything else in my life felt like it was breaking apart. It wasn’t supposed to be there. I’d lived in that apartment for two years, knew every crack in the ceiling, every stubborn drawer that refused to close. Yet suddenly, in the hallway between my bedroom and the bathroom, stood a door I had never seen before.

Pain in absence, not action
There are many ways a parent can wound a child. Some wounds come from anger, some from criticism, and others from absence. But the deepest wound my father ever left me wasn’t carved by shouting, or rejection, or even neglect. It came from his silence.

Why My Grandmother’s Stories Still Guide Me Today
When I think about the person who has influenced my life the most, it isn’t a famous author, a teacher, or a public figure. It’s my grandmother. She didn’t leave behind wealth or possessions, but she gave me something far more valuable—her stories. They were simple, told in the quiet of evenings, yet they still guide me today, shaping the way I see challenges, kindness, and the importance of remembering where I come from.
