Families and literature go hand in hand; fictional families to entertain, reflect and inspire.

The Eye in the Fold:
Once you notice the hidden center of the cube, it’s hard to unsee it. The drawing no longer feels like a static object with six faces; it becomes a system. Lines converge. Directions collapse inward. A square appears where nothing was explicitly drawn. That emergent center isn’t decoration—it’s functional. It exists because perspective demands it.

The Day Begins Here
The Day Begins Here The quiet never lasts long here. It never does. I hear it before I see him — the soft scuff of small feet on the passage floor, the pause outside the kitchen like someone deciding whether the day is allowed to begin yet. Leo appears in the doorway, hair flattened on one side, eyes only half open. He doesn’t say anything at first. He just looks at me, as if confirming I’m still here.

Where the River Meets the Stars
The river had always served as their place. When they were kids Mira and Rowan spent every summer evening sitting at the old wooden dock of her grandparents countryside home. They'd put their feet in the cool water and toss pebbles and pretend the fireflies dancing above them were tiny fallen stars.

When Freedom Learns Responsibility: A Father’s Journey from Single Life to Sacred Duty.
When Freedom Learns Responsibility: A Father’s Journey from Single Life to Sacred Duty The single life often feels like an open road with no traffic lights. You choose your destination, your speed, and even when to stop and start. Your time is yours, your money is yours, and your thoughts belong entirely to you. You can change your plans in an instant, sleep whenever you like, and travel whenever you wish, without anyone asking why you are late or where you are going. It feels like freedom in its purest form. But is freedom simply the ability to do whatever you want, or is it understanding what truly matters?

The Corruption of Childhood Innocence: How Modern Media Helped Rewrite the Family and the Iconic Berenstain Bears
There was a time when The Berenstain Bears stood for something good. It was a series that helped children understand responsibility, honesty, humility, and faith in simple, practical ways. The lessons were gentle and timeless. Papa Bear could be silly, but was never degraded. Mama Bear was steady, but without being domineering. Together they modeled respect, teamwork, and the kind of family order that reflected biblical truth: the father leads as the head, the mother respects and nurtures, and the children yield and learn.

Freedom Without Consequence: The Lie That Destroyed the Family
Modern society claims to champion equality, but when it comes to parenthood, the system could not be more unequal. The law grants women near-total control over reproduction while holding men accountable for outcomes they cannot influence. This imbalance has produced not just unfair laws, but a moral double standard that punishes responsibility and excuses recklessness.

The Cost of Comfort: How Overprotection Broke a Generation
We are watching an entire generation crumble under the weight of emotional fragility, identity confusion, and quiet despair. We call it a "mental health crisis," but that phrase feels far too clean. The truth is harder: the problem isn’t that kids were born weaker, but that they were taught to fear the very things that make them strong.
