The One Habit That Quietly Changed My Entire Life
There are many habits people talk about waking up at 5 AM, journaling, meditation, exercising daily, reading books, cold showers, and more. I tried many of them. Some worked, some didn’t.

The Woman Who Sold Her Seconds
The shop was tucked between a baker smelling of burnt sugar and a dry cleaner that hissed steam onto the sidewalk. It was a narrow, unassuming slice of architecture, recognizable only by the faint, rhythmic thrumming that seeped through the brickwork—a sound like a thousand heartbeats out of sync. There was no neon sign, only a gold-leaf inscription on the glass: WE BUY THE MOMENTS YOU DON’T WANT.

The Sweetness of Waiting: A Story of Patience
By Hazrat Umer "Indeed, with hardship [will come] ease." (Quran 94:6) Life. It’s a journey, isn't it? Sometimes it’s a smooth, open road under a bright sky. Other times, it’s a rocky path through a dark forest, where every step is a struggle. We all face these struggles. Business losses, sickness, family problems, or simply the long wait for something we deeply desire. In these moments, there’s one word, one powerful concept, that often comes to mind: Patience. We are told, "The fruit of patience is sweet." But oh, how difficult it is to believe that when you are in the middle of a storm.

A growing number of young people — especially Gen Z — are delaying getting their driver’s licenses or skipping it entirely.

Field of the Fallen
The Field of the Fallen is a poignant concept that represents the eternal memorial to those who have sacrificed their lives in the line of duty, whether in military conflict, humanitarian efforts, or any other circumstances that involve giving one's life for the greater good. This field serves not only as a physical location for remembrance, but also as a symbolic representation of the price paid for freedom, peace, and justice. It stands as a somber reminder of the cost of war and the human spirit's resilience in the face of such adversity.
