Whispers of the Old Library
The air inside the library smelled of aged paper and dust, a scent Evelyn Carter had grown to love over the years. Nestled in the heart of her small town, the Carter Library had stood for nearly a century, its towering wooden shelves holding thousands of untold stories. Evelyn, a part-time librarian and aspiring writer, often found herself lost in its quiet corners, flipping through old books and imagining the lives of those who had once read them.

The Forgotten Melody
Sophia had always been drawn to the old piano in her grandmother’s house. It stood in the corner of the dusty living room, untouched for years. Its once-polished wooden surface had dulled, and the ivory keys had yellowed with age. Yet, whenever she visited, she found herself tracing her fingers over the keys, wondering about the stories they once told.

FEAR IN THINKING IS THIS ABILITY OR ILLNESS
In a bustling yet lonely city for a man named Benjamin, his life is filled with uniqueness that is difficult to explain to others. Since childhood, he has realized that his mind does not work like most people. His memory and understanding of the world are so sharp, as if his brain is an infinite storage, recording every event in detail that is impossible to forget.

Strong
People are always telling me how strong I am, how resilient, how I always bounce back no matter the storm. I'm always told how brave I am and that I am looked at as people's hero for the way I just keep going through the hard no matter what as if I'm some unstoppable force. I'm always told I'll get through it because well, I always do and while yes, all these things are true and wonderful to be told; it's not easy. Yes, I do always rise from the dead, I do always keep going through the fire with gritted teeth but here is what you don't see...

An ode to being lost in life
Because when you just dream about it in your heart, work hard for it and believe in the universe to perform its magic, it conspires in the best-designated ways to make your dreams come true. I have always believed in the higher power, something beyond the fathomable vision of the human eye that beholds us, ties us to our purpose and protects us in times of uncertainty and dejection. It is comforting to know that some mighty and divine force beckons us in moments of need and sometimes all we need to do is let go and have faith. Life in its truest mirth often transcends through the truces of rationalisation and delusion, through the light of knowing exactly what to do and under the traces of pretence which hides the scariest part, not having a single clue as to where your life is going.

Making the Right Decision
In the past year, I made a critical decision to exit a toxic business environment that had brought me significant emotional and professional distress. During the economic uncertainty of 2022-2023, exacerbated by the challenges posed by COVID-19, I made certain decisions that led me into an unfit and unethical individuals professional attachment . The individuals I dealt with were engaged in fraudulent activities, morally disengaged, wretched and demonstrated a severe lack of commitment . My time investment was disrespected, and I found myself in a situation where betrayal, and unethical behavior were rampant. After a period of reflection, I decided to exit this situation and pursue a path aligned with my values and professional integrity.

Breaking Down the Question: "Are You One of Those Feminist Types?" and My Truthful Answer
I experienced being watched long before I understood what feminism meant. I came to see that there was a persistent, ravenous gaze on all women. It establishes the boundaries between right and wrong, specifies the moral patterns a girl must exhibit, and reaffirms our core beliefs. Such surveillance has the peculiar quality of quickly turning inward, turning you into a voyeur of yourself. I spent almost my entire adolescence performing what I thought was most attractive.

The CEO’s Secret Admirer: Rich girl and a clueless office. AI-Generated.
