Why Mental Health Is True Wealth
At 29, I had everything I thought I wanted. The six-figure salary. The corner office with the city view. The luxury apartment, the designer clothes, the envious looks from old classmates at reunions. I'd climbed the ladder fast, sacrificed everything to get there, and finally made it.

I Was On Ozempic Before The Celebs Were— Don’t Fall For Its Sheer Hype
Here’s something only five people in my life know. I was on Ozempic. In the middle of 2021, I visited my regular doctor to discuss weight loss options with him. Ever since my gallbladder removal in 2013, my struggles with losing weight have intensified.

What If Truth Is Rejected Even When It Is Lived Well
It’s easy to assume that if something is true, and if it is communicated clearly, reasonably, and with goodwill, it will eventually be accepted. This assumption sits quietly beneath a lot of effort, especially in faith. We speak carefully. We try to be fair. We explain ourselves patiently. Somewhere beneath all of that is the hope that clarity and sincerity will be enough. But what if that hope misunderstands how truth actually moves through the world.

Truth Is Often Rejected Because It Demands Change
There is a widespread assumption, rarely spoken but deeply believed, that truth will eventually be accepted if it is communicated clearly, patiently, and with genuine goodwill. When resistance appears, the instinct is to search for error in tone, framing, or explanation. The underlying belief is simple: if the truth were presented well enough, rejection would disappear. This belief is comforting, but it is false. History, Scripture, and lived experience all point in the same direction. Truth is often rejected not because it is unclear, but because it is costly.

Preservation for Eternal Impact
It is easy to feel as though most of what is said disappears. Words are spoken, written, posted, argued over, and then quickly buried beneath the next wave of noise. Attention moves on. Platforms refresh. What once felt urgent becomes invisible. In that environment, a quiet but persistent question emerges. What actually lasts. And more uncomfortably, what is worth preserving when so much seems to vanish without consequence.
