  • In a world that often bombards us with external validation and endless comparisons, the quest for genuine happiness and fulfillment often leads us inward.

  • To Eat or Not To Eat?

    The existential dread. More profound than “to be or not to be,” more pressing than “what is the meaning of life?” I speak, of course, of the eternal struggle: To Eat or Not To Eat?

  • I first came across the word “journal” when I was watching The Vampire Diaries. Stefan’s journals play a very important role in the series and I surely can understand why. Over the course of his hundred -something years of existence, his head must have felt so full. No question he needed journals for himself. My…
