All the things she didn't deserve
The prisoner had two mothers, neither of whom was particularly interested in her fate or well-being. The prisoner thought she had escaped from a crib with cage-like bars and the very real possibility of starvation, but she had only slipped into another cage, one where heartily abundant meals and gastric comments were always available.

Who Am I?
Who Am I? "Who am I?" This profound question arises in everyone’s mind at least once in their lifetime. It is a question that prompts us to reflect on our existence, our purpose, and the significance of our lives. Who am I? What is my identity? What is the meaning of my life? These are not easy questions to answer. Understanding oneself is not a straightforward journey—it is an evolving process shaped by struggles, joys, sorrows, and failures.

A Tapestry of Leadership: Reflections on the Lives and Legacies of Former US Presidents
An unexpected melody from a long-forgotten hit can transport us to moments we thought were tucked away forever. With it comes a flood of memories—of places, people, and who we were at the time. This phenomenon isn’t limited to music.

My Hardest Moments: Letting Go and Finding Peace
People arrive and depart as they see fit. Learned this phrase when? I didn't completely understand at the time how someone could mean so much and then disappear the next second. When I went through it myself, it was a concept I found difficult to understand or accept because I had formed strong attachments to some people. I had the mental impression that I needed to take action to change the current situation. Anything that would allow them to stay, even if it meant causing me inconvenience. I was unaware that I had fallen into this trap. I put myself in a trap that made me vacillate back and forth.

Through the Darkness, We Write
I’m overwhelmed by a strange feeling, an emotion I can't quite describe, one that makes the world fade away. It's as if, suddenly, everything else stops mattering and only one thing occupies my mind: writing. Why do I feel this? What is it that drives me? I HAVE TO GET IT OUT. The words begin to flow, without me calling them. My hands start moving, and without thinking too much, I begin to write.

Forgive Yourself!
Forgive Yourself! In life, we make mistakes repeatedly. Some are unintentional, while others are the result of our actions. These mistakes often leave a deep imprint on our minds, compelling us to relive them and blame ourselves. Dwelling on these mistakes, however, traps us in a cycle of guilt and self-reproach, disrupting our mental peace and well-being. In such situations, forgiving yourself becomes essential to restore inner calm and find mental happiness.
