Things I learnt from my recent setbacks
Things I learnt from my recent setbacks How I wish life were filled with glory and love, tales of how we succeed in every aspect of our life, emerging victorious in battles filled with animosity and sadness. Every mortal being experiences seasons of rise and fall, of light and dark, of pain and purpose, and defeat and victory.

Heaven and Hell
It was said that between Heaven and Hell, there exists a place that no soul ever wished to linger. This place, a realm caught between light and darkness, was known as the In-Between. Neither a haven of angels nor the inferno of demons, the In-Between was a limbo where choices were confronted, secrets were unearthed, and fates were sealed.

Word of the Day: 点灯夫
Today I had sort of late start, but it pretty much went down like it normally does. When I was at the gym I got a call from a Californian number, it sort of scared me. I wondered if it was my dad or, a cousin of some sort maybe calling me.. I didn't know how I would react if it were my dad so I didn't want to answer it in the middle of a gym. I am not sure where a conversation with my dad should take place I don't even know what that sort of conversation would do. It is easier to just avoid the situation, even if means I might not see him again. That's pretty hard to say but, I can't risk my mental health to be dragged into some sort of chaos by him.

How Gallade threw out the Trash
Gallade had always been cautious when it came to relationships. As a demisexual, he needed an emotional connection before he could feel any attraction. In a world that often seemed obsessed with quick flings and superficial connections, this made dating challenging, to say the least. But Gallade had always held out hope that he would find someone who understood him, who would value the deep connection he needed.

The Warm Hug to Myself on My Recent Accomplishment
The Warm Hug to Myself on My Recent Accomplishment Whenever you find yourself talking negatively to yourself or judging or shaming yourself for something you have done wrong maybe today, or in your past, think about saying those harsh words to the younger version of you. How atrocious of you would it be to talk to your inner child like that, of telling the most disdainful of phrases that would never leave your mouth for the people you love? We live in a world where it is normalized to treat yourself with grit and harshness and to be hard on yourself because guess what we live in a hustling world where everybody charges with lightning speed towards their goals and if you render yourself with steadiness and ease, we are losing the damn game of life.

The Disappearance of Sky
For years, Emily had been caught in a web spun by her best friend, Sky, and his boyfriend, Scoot. It wasn’t obvious at first; Sky had been her closest friend since 2019. They’d shared almost everything—their hopes, their fears, their late-night existential crises. Sky was funny, intelligent, and kind, or at least, that’s what she thought.

Digital Detox: Unplugging to Reclaim Your Sanity
Let’s face it: We’re all a little too attached to our screens. Whether it’s the constant ping of notifications, the never-ending scroll of social media, or the black hole of YouTube that swallows hours of your life, screens have taken over. It’s like our phones have become extensions of our hands, and if we ever accidentally leave them at home, we’re pretty sure the world might end. But what if—brace yourself—you took a break? Yes, a digital detox. It’s time to put down the gadgets, step away from the screens, and remember what it feels like to have a functioning brain (and maybe even a social life).
