SOME THOUGHTS ON PHILOSOPHY IN MY LIFE
Everyone needs a motto in life, but I myself yearn to find even more. Philosophy, which I cherish most, is something I always believe in; studying it is like exploring a treasure trove of profound wisdom. Why? Because, first and foremost, the name philosophy says it all: philosophy means wisdom (in Chinese), meaning love of intelligence (philosophy). What could be more joyful than having all the difficulties and obstacles in life resolved by a wise and intelligent "scholar"? Is that perhaps overestimating philosophy? I don't think so, because no one would name something without first defining it in their mind. And even if it were called "philosophy" when it was born, if it had been truly useless, lacking wisdom and intelligence throughout a long period of history, no one would be foolish enough not to rename such a multifaceted field of study.

Memory Snapshot: An Inconvenient Time For Sausage and Sex
Memory Snapshot: Inconvenient time for sausage and sex The energy on January 18, 2025 felt strange. No one in the department knew it, but it was the anniversary of my company’s start date. I celebrate it every year because I’ll always be proud that I went a different path than traditional. I was scheduled for one demo in meat department from 11-3 during the store’s tasting event. As I rolled my stand over to the product area, Elias stood there leveling lunch meat and cheese. I really didn’t want to say hi but because friendliness is basically my default setting, I did without thought. Plus, he was already looking at me as if he was waiting for me to break the ice.

My Last Story on Vocal Media
A new article came out about new changes coming to vocal. A lot of them were great rules and warranted rules. AI is taking over the art world and we need to get back to the simplicity of writing for ourselves again. Paying those who earn it is a must and a priority. However, I will not be able to pay the way to earn. I am a free user and will not be continuing on this site if I won't be getting paid because I can't pay. I wasn't just here for the payout, but man was it nice. I liked seeing that I was getting paid for my writing. Like I was actually an author. Big LOL on my part. I just can't afford to pay, so out the door I go.

The Forgotten Wars That Changed the World
History is often told through the stories of famous wars. Names like the First World War, the Second World War, and the Napoleonic Wars dominate textbooks, documentaries, and public memory. Yet the truth is that many lesser-known conflicts quietly reshaped the world just as dramatically. These wars may not always appear in school lessons, but their consequences still influence modern borders, political systems, and global power structures.

The Two Years Since I was expelled for Protesting the Palestinian Genocide
Ran into one of the women that was on the conduct board that kicked me out of UT. Didn't know how big the wound was til I felt it split open right then at that moment. I was in honors. I was a great sociologist. I was beloved by my professors. I wanted to be like them, get a doctorate and all that. I had something I love, I had a purpose

A Royal Secret I Couldn’t Ignore: The Day I Realized Reputation Inside the Palace Is Fragile
I’ve always believed that public reputation is far more fragile than most people realize. From the outside, powerful families and famous personalities appear untouchable, surrounded by tradition, status, and influence. But the longer I follow stories about the British royal family, the more I realize how complicated things can become behind closed doors.
