friendship
C.S Lewis got it right: friendship is born when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!"
Which one friend ?
It was a quiet afternoon when there was a soft knock at the door. Zakariya, who was in the courtyard of his house, immediately noticed it. The rest of his family members were inside. The gentle knock suggested that the visitor did not want anyone to know of their arrival.

The Enemy’s Friendship
I was shaken to the core when a man stepped out of a car—it was him, the one who had extinguished the lives of my parents. I had always hated humans. I had seen my father and mother shot before my eyes, their skins stripped away. Their deaths had also destroyed my childhood happiness. During those dark days, my loyal friend, a leopard, and his family supported me. Other animals, instead of fearing me, showed compassion.

Unity Brings Blessings
Once upon a time, there lived a sparrow and a crow. Between the two of them, there existed intense hostility. The sparrow spent her days collecting grains for her young chicks. She would pick up food in her beak, return to the nest to feed her children, and then fly off again to gather more. On the other hand, the crow constantly watched her movements with an evil intention. He waited patiently for the moment when the sparrow would leave her nest unattended so that he could attack the helpless chicks and make them his prey.

Shadows Within
Have you ever felt that quiet pull inside, the one that makes applause feel heavy? That subtle weight in your chest that sits there, not loud, not cruel, just… familiar? It whispers things you already know but hope to ignore: You had help. You copied. You don’t really deserve this. And suddenly, just as you could shine, you shrink. You fold yourself into the moment as if hiding it will make it harmless.

Shadows
There is a voice most people never talk about, not because it is rare, but because it is so familiar it feels like part of the self. It is not loud in the way the world understands loudness. It does not shout or demand attention. It hums beneath thought, beneath action, beneath moments that should feel complete. It carries weight quietly, shaping how brilliance is held rather than how it is expressed.

On the other hand, unrealistic or undisclosed expectations may cause disappointment, frustration and tension in relationships. Being aware of expectations and clarifying the expectations is important in avoiding stress that can be caused by emotions and to ensure mental health.

Compassionate listening refers to the act of attending to another human being, achieving full and non-judgmental attention, and caring and feeling compassion.

This emotional presence makes relationships feel safer and more supportive as they increase trust and connection. Emotional tension is reduced and people become more open when they listen to each other, which creates a solid platform of mental and emotional health.

The Connection Between Emotional Neglect And Mental Health In Relationships
Lack of emotional care in a relationship happens when emotional needs of one partner are constantly disregarded, discounted, or downplayed. Emotional neglect may be hidden and slow as well as it can be hard to detect as opposed to overt conflict or abuse. It can be a deficiency in emotional responsiveness, empathy, affection or significant communication. In the long run, such lack of emotional bonds may make the individuals feel unnoticed, not valued, and feel isolated in terms of their emotions, yet they are still physically in the relationship.
