Embarrassment
The Embarrassment Stuck to My Shoe
There are moments in life that stick with you not because they were beautiful or inspiring, but because they were so embarrassing that your brain refuses to let them go. For me, one of those unforgettable memories goes all the way back to primary school, when I unintentionally became the source of an entire classroom’s confusion, disgust, and laughter.

The Holding Place
Very few people understand the true forces that are at play in the universe. Very few people understand that the foundation of everything ever breathed into life is energy. But even fewer understand how the power of frequency and how it works in the matrix and the force it has in our lives. For example, we often attract people in our lives that meet our frequency and then have the gull to ask why they don't have better people in our lives.

Sanctuary of Light
The old mosque stood quietly at the edge of the bustling city, its green dome glowing softly against the glass towers that reached toward the sky. Inside, the faint recitation of the Qur’an floated through the hall like a lullaby, mingling with the warm fragrance of sandalwood.

The Shoes I Couldn’t Throw Away
They sat in the corner of my closet, tucked behind a row of boots and dress shoes I never wore. Old sneakers, frayed at the edges, laces gray instead of white, and soles so thin they could barely hold together. Every time I tried to throw them out, I froze. My hand would linger on the torn fabric, my chest tightening as if I was about to give away more than just a pair of shoes.

The Day I Stopped Answering Unknown Numbers
It started with one of those relentless calls that always seem to come during dinner. The phone buzzed against the table, lighting up with the words “Unknown Caller.” I remember staring at it, fork in hand, wondering if this would be the one time it mattered.

The Loneliest Role: Being the Strong One
There’s an invisible weight that comes with being “the strong one.” It’s the role no one assigns you, but somehow, it becomes yours. Maybe it’s because you don’t easily cry in front of others, or because you’ve mastered the art of saying “I’m fine” when you’re breaking inside. Perhaps it’s because you’ve always been the one who steps up—holding families together, carrying friendships on your shoulders, and being the steady voice when everyone else is falling apart.

The Truth of My Life
I never thought my life would turn out this way. If you had asked me years ago what I wanted, I would have said something simple: a peaceful home, steady work, people I could trust, and love that lasted. But the truth of my life is nothing like that dream. Instead, it has been a storm of secrets, heartbreaks, and betrayals that left me questioning everything I once believed in.

The Truth of My Life
There was a time when I believed life was simple. You worked hard, you loved honestly, and in return, life would reward you with stability, happiness, and peace. That’s what I thought. That’s what many of us think when we’re young. But the truth of my life is very different—messier, heavier, and far more complicated than I could have ever imagined.

Nutella or Avocado: Why Moderation Tastes Better Than Extremes.
I am five three and weigh 130 pounds. That is about 59 kilograms. On paper, everything says I should feel fine about my body and what I eat. Yet somehow, I do not. Even now, even after years of struggling to find a healthy balance, I feel guilty when I eat. I have bounced from one extreme diet to another. Low carb, high protein, raw, juice cleanses, calorie counting, fasting. I tried them all. Some made me dizzy, some left me irritable, and a few I am almost certain made me physically sick. I recovered, yes, but the emotional scars linger. Food has felt like both a battleground and a reward, and I am tired of fighting.
