The Dream That Scared Me Awake
I woke up at 3 a.m. in a cold sweat, heart pounding. Not from a nightmare. From a dream. In it, I was 75 years old, sitting alone in a dimly lit room, surrounded by journals filled with ideas I never pursued, projects I never started, dreams I never chased.

The weight of guilt
Once I attended a conference where a Thai monk was giving a speech about spirituality and letting your emotions out. At a certain moment a guy stood up and told the monk about something he did, which he felt guilty about. It was not something serious, but the guilt was enough to consume him. After some time, the monk just said, "If you did something wrong, why should you feel good about it?" The guy just stood there, and after that answer, something changed in him.

The Weight We Choose to Carry
The town of Harrow field was not marked on most maps. It was the kind of place people passed through without stopping, where streets remembered footsteps longer than faces, and where duty was not spoken loudly but lived quietly. In Harrow field, responsibility did not arrive with applause; it arrived with the morning bell, the creak of old doors, and the steady expectation that everyone would do what needed to be done.

The Goal Of Thy Enemy
I believe that every leader should study war theory... Not because I'm an advocate for war... I believe that war should be avoided and only used as a last resort in situations where the opposition refuses to see the world in alternative ways...

Why Being Liked is Overrated and Self-Respect is Everything
For a long time, I thought being liked was the goal. If people were comfortable around me, I felt successful. If no one was upset with me, I felt safe. If I could smooth things over, stay agreeable, and avoid conflict, I believed I was doing something right.

Actions Build Success
Rafiq loved to talk about success. Every evening, he would sit with his friends at the tea stall and speak confidently about the future. He had big plans, big dreams, and even bigger words. He would say, “One day I will start my own business,” or, “I will become financially free before I turn thirty.” His friends admired his confidence. Some even believed he was already on the path to greatness.

Life: The Past and The Present. Content Warning.
Life used to be simple. Grocery was cheap. Gas was affordable. A person could borrow money. People lent a help hand. You could easily get government benefits. The funeral homes weren’t quite as busy. Take your foot off the brakes, let’s go for a ride.

Delayed Dreams
Rashid always believed he had time. Time to travel. Time to explore. Time to chase the dreams that visited him every night before sleep. He would sit on the old wooden chair outside his house, watching the sunset paint the sky orange, and imagine himself kayaking across a wide river, hiking through green forests, and climbing tall mountains that touched the clouds.

Hope Is Heavy When You Carry It Alone
Hope isn’t a spark. It isn’t a light that lifts you off your feet. It is a weight. A stubborn, unyielding burden that presses against your shoulders whether you want it or not. I learned this early, in small doses at first—little moments that should have been easy, but weren’t.
