Education Should Be a Priority

Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to finish school. I have always been bright and curious, eager to learn, but life was not easy. School felt like a ladder I had to climb. Each step was hard and required all my strength. I worked part time jobs, attended tutorials, and became a student assistant just to keep going. Some nights, I came home so tired my body ached, yet I opened my books by the dim light of a lamp, determined not to fall behind. Finally, I reached the top. I finished school. I am proud not just of surviving, but of using my mind and determination to overcome the challenges. But I know not every student can climb this ladder. Many want to learn, but they do not have the support, strength, or resources to balance work and school. That is why I believe our government must pay more attention to education. I am grateful for the programs and support that exist, but sometimes the money does not reach the students who need it most. Some people take advantage of the system, ...

He Sees It All: A Message of Hope for the Hurting

Life did not always go the way I hoped. I wanted to rise, to do better, to give my family a good life. But no matter how hard I worked, there were times when people tried to pull me down. They questioned my efforts, doubted my intentions, or simply refused to support me. I kept asking myself why they could not just let me try. I was not trying to prove anything to the world. I only wanted to grow for myself, for my son, and for the people I love. Still, I often felt unseen. Like my efforts did not matter. I would smile in front of others and act like I had it all together, but behind closed doors, I cried. I did not always have the words for what I was feeling. I only had prayers. Quiet ones. Honest ones. And deep in my heart, I kept asking, God, please see me. Please help me. And He did. There are days when the weight feels too much. I still show up. I still give my best. But deep inside, I get tired. Not just in my body but in my soul. I feel the pressure, the silence, the questions ...

Gold isn’t always inherited — sometimes, it’s made from love and sacrifice

I wasn’t born with a gold plate. No family business. No big savings. No shortcut to comfort. I didn’t grow up with excess — but I grew up with dreams. And now that I have a child of my own, I know exactly what kind of life I want to build. These days, it’s not about what I wear or where I go. It’s about what I  give. I breastfeed not just because it's nourishing — but because it's a daily act of love and sacrifice. Because sometimes, the best things we can give our children don’t come with a price tag —they come from us. I choose to stay up late researching how to save and earn, rather than scrolling through what others are buying. I choose to delay wants so I can give my baby what he  needs. I say no to milk tea so I can say yes to milk, diapers, vitamins. I wasn’t born with gold, but I’m raising someone like he  was. Not because of material things — but because he will grow up in a home where love is stable, and choices are made with purpose. A better life is not about ...

We Are Like God

One day at the park, a little boy was crying. His balloon flew away, and he couldn’t get it back. An old man saw him and came close. He smiled and gave the boy a new balloon. “This is for you,” the man said. “Because you are special.” The boy asked, “Why are you giving this to me?” The man said, “Because you are like God. If God saw you right now, He would do the same.” The boy smiled and gave him a hug. We are like God—so we can love, care, and forgive. But sometimes, people forget this. Sometimes, they let the devil use them to make others feel sad or alone. If someone hurts you, remember this:  God never leaves you.  You are still made like Him, and He still loves you. Choose to be like God. Choose to love.  💛

True Friendship Is Tested by Distance, Silence, and Time — Yet Still It Stands

Friendship is one of the most beautiful things in life. It’s not just about having fun together or talking every day. It’s about being there for each other, even when life gets busy or hard. Some friendships are easy when everything is going well. But real friendship gets tested. It’s tested by distance, by silence, and by time. And the ones that survive these quiet tests are truly special. Sometimes, we move to new cities or take different paths. We don’t see our friends as often as we used to. But true friendship doesn’t depend on being close every day. It’s about feeling close, even when we’re far apart. One message, one memory, or one call can remind us how strong the bond still is. Life also brings silence. We don’t always have time to talk. We get busy. But silence doesn’t always mean distance. With true friends, even after long gaps, we can pick up right where we left off. There’s no pressure to explain — just an unspoken understanding that we’re still here for each other. T...

Positivity Amidst the Lockdown

A few months before 2020,   I bet  everyone  of us has already laid out plans for the coming year.  Given quite a number of long weekends, w e already have a good idea for our vacation plans, how will we utilize our work leaves and where will we go during our holidays. Then enter 2020.  January proved to be not a good start of the year. There were volcanoes erupting, celebrities dying and yes of course Covid-19  pandemic . Covid-19  pandemic  which is caused by the Coronavirus  resulted for  most of  us to be locked  down in the comforts of our own homes. Employees were advised to work from home and stay away from the public to contain the spread of the virus. Unfortunately for some, their livelihood was taken away because working from home is not feasible and their company has no means to sustain the workforce. Experts say that the world will be going to a period of depression and many more jobs will be inevitably ...

How Far Would You Go For Love?

How far would you go for love? When you’re in love, there are no boundaries, no reservations, and it is unconditional that you’ll do anything for the sake of it. But this is not always the case. These are few questions that you can ponder to know how far you are willing to go for the person you love: Are you willing to convert your religion for your partner? Can you give up your career? Are you okay with long distance relationship? Can you forgive infidelity? Are you willing to marry your partner? It is easy to say that you can do all of these. But actions speak louder than words. And the reality is, we are not perfect, we must accept the truth that sometimes it is impossible to do it all the way. Frankly, not all of us can do all the sacrifices for our love. But there are people who are fighting and willing to sacrifice everything for their partner. I envy them. Though all our opinions are different, they still have to be valued. Some can’t sacrifice their reli...
