I Thought I Knew Self-Care — I Was Wrong
When I was feeling low, I used to believe that self-care consisted solely of spa days, face masks, and indulging in something sweet. It was a decade ago. I once thought that caring for oneself was a band-aid solution, something you did only when you were exhausted, rather than something you did every day. I regret not understanding then that taking care of oneself is a lifestyle choice rather than a short-term diversion.

October's Magickal Milkweed Memo: Beyond the Obvious Fluff

Modern culture pretends to know the answer, yet its behavior tells another story. We live in an age that praises equality while practicing utilitarianism. People are valued for what they produce, not for who they are. The unborn are treated as inconveniences, the elderly as burdens, and the suffering as statistics. The result is a world that has forgotten what makes humanity sacred.

Creation and Knowability: Why the Universe Proves a Mind Behind It
Everything that exists carries within it a trace of intention. Whether it is a tree bending toward sunlight, a planet held in perfect orbit, or a human mind capable of wondering why any of it exists at all, creation reveals purpose. The fact that the universe is understandable tells us something about the One who made it. Chaos does not create comprehension. Randomness does not produce reason.
