The War of Understanding: Why Men and Women Fight Differently
Men and women often see the same moment through different lenses. What one perceives as confrontation, the other experiences as connection. What one calls “silence,” the other calls “space.” Beneath nearly every conflict between men and women lies not hatred, but misinterpretation. The battlefield is rarely the issue itself. It is language, tone, and expectation.

The Empty Chair at the Dinner Table
It started with an argument — the kind that burns through love faster than fire through paper. My brother, Amir, and my father hadn’t spoken in nearly two years. The reason? Pride, misunderstandings, and words said in anger that no one really meant but everyone remembered.

The Day My Dreams Turned to Ashes
I was 15, but I never felt like the other girls my age. While my classmates giggled over crushes and school gossip, I’d outgrown them long before. My body matured early—curves, striking features, and those rare colored eyes that turned heads wherever I went. I stood out, not just among my peers but in a way that drew older girls, 4 or 5 years ahead, into my circle. I compared myself to them, feeling more woman than teenager. The compliments poured in—my beauty was “unmatched,” they said—and with each word, my pride swelled. I saw myself as a captivating woman, ready to charm and love, far removed from the innocence of youth.

The Day I Thought I’d Lose My Baby—And Found Hope Instead
I was 25 weeks pregnant when I went back for another anomaly scan. At 18 weeks, the first scan had flagged two soft markers: a smaller-than-normal skull size and a white spot on the baby’s heart. The doctors said it needed a follow-up at 25 weeks, so there I was, heart pounding, lying on that cold table again. The first time, the technician was quiet, moving the wand over my belly. When the doctor came in, he said, “The heart spot’s shrunk since 18 weeks and should fade by 33 weeks.” Relief hit me—until he added, “But the skull size is still two weeks behind the baby’s biometric age.” My stomach dropped. That word—“behind”—echoed in my head like a warning siren.
