Life

Dear Hubby
Dear Hubby, As I sit down to write this, my heart is heavy with the ache of missing you. It's a kind of ache that goes beyond the physical distance; it's the yearning for the warmth of your presence, the comfort of your embrace, and the solace in your understanding.I want you to know that despite the strong front I often put up, there are moments when I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders, and it becomes overwhelming. In those moments, I long for your support, your comforting words, and the safety of being vulnerable with you. It's not that I don't want to be strong, but sometimes, I just need you to be my refuge.I've always found it challenging to express these feelings, fearing that my words might fall short or convey the wrong message.

Bye, '23
Bye, ‘23. You left us with a lot of surprises, not all of them good ones. You left us with the sour taste of war. You left us half blindfolded and with the scary darkness of many unknowns.

Cher's Heartbreak: Battling Addiction for Son Elijah with Conservatorship Request
Who is Cher? According to Wikipedia, Cher (/ʃɛər/; born Cherilyn Sarkisian; May 20, 1946) is an American singer, actress and television personality. Often referred to by the media as the "Goddess of Pop", she has been described as embodying female autonomy in a male-dominated industry. Known for her distinctive contralto singing voice and for having worked in numerous areas of entertainment, as well as adopting a variety of styles and appearances, Cher rose to fame in 1965 as one half of the folk rock husband-wife duo Sonny & Cher before launching a successful six-decade-long solo career. Having sold 100 million records, Cher is one of the world's best-selling music artists. Her achievements include a Grammy Award, an Emmy Award, an Academy Award, three Golden Globe Awards, a Cannes Film Festival award, the Billboard Icon Award, and awards from the Kennedy Center Honors and the Council of Fashion Designers of America. She is the only solo artist to date to have a number-one single on a Billboard chart in seven consecutive decades, from the 1960s to the 2020s. Her 2002–2005 Living Proof: The Farewell Tour became the highest-grossing concert tour by a female artist ever at the time, earning $250 million. Aside from music and acting, she is noted for her trendsetting, elaborate outfits, plastic surgeries, political views, social media presence, philanthropic endeavors, and social activism, including LGBT rights and HIV/AIDS prevention.

The Cup of Coffee
In the core of an old Bedouin town, settled between the transcending hills and the unpleasant murmurs of the breeze, there existed a story that sent shudders down the spines of the boldest spirits. It was an account of a reviled Arabic espresso, a mix that brought not warmth and kinship, but rather an obscurity that saturated the actual spirits of the people who thought for even a moment to taste it.

Try Writing Something New
I was browsing Amazon for what sells best in Indie books with no particular genre in mind. Research says that Spiritual and Fiction genres are still popular (the genres I write in so yay). Horror always is and so is Romance, some books combine the two which was new to me.

How Social Media Is Destroying Society
Start searching for something, and once you do, you'll notice it everywhere you go. Have you ever entered a restaurant and seen a whole table of friends on their phones? Or a group of people on the street? Even your own family, each absorbed in their own world, seemingly oblivious to their surroundings. If most human interaction is non-verbal, what happens when you strip away everything else, leaving only that small fraction? This is the experiment we find ourselves in today.
