Why Do We Fear the Unknown?
We’re taught from early on to fear the unknown. It’s a quiet, persistent lesson—one that doesn’t always come in words, but through warnings, looks of disapproval, and the comfort zones society builds around us. Play it safe, they say. Don’t dream too big. You’re just one of many—nothing special. Why risk it all? And slowly, Continue reading

You Are Alive
If the breeze still moves you, if a sunrise still stops you in your tracks, if your heart skips a beat while looking at this strange, wonderful world—then take a breath and know this: you are alive.

A World Without My Dreams
The world without you feels… hollow. Not in the obvious, earth-shattering way—but in the quiet spaces, where something used to live. A kind of stillness has crept in, not peaceful, but barren.

Appeal to Ignorance
Have you ever heard someone say, “No one has proven it wrong, so it must be true”? Or perhaps, “There’s no proof it’s real, so it must be false”? At first glance, these statements might sound reasonable. But in logic, they fall under a common trap known as the Appeal to Ignorance. The appeal to Continue reading

My Aleph
Some connections are brief, yet they carry the weight of universes. There are moments when a single glance holds more than words ever could. In one such moment, I thought I saw everything—all emotions, all contradictions—gathered in a single point. That point reminded me of the aleph. The aleph, in Jewish mysticism and beautifully imagined Continue reading

Broken Windows: It has got a Theory
The Broken Window Theory is a concept in criminology that suggests visible signs of disorder and neglect—like broken windows, graffiti, or litter—can encourage more serious crimes. The basic idea is that if minor problems are left unattended, they send a message that no one cares, making it more likely for bigger problems to follow. This Continue reading
