The house wasn’t a home; it was the front line. No car engine noise—just the scrape of his worn shoes, always within my room, my tomb, my refuge. The walk from the school felt like crossing a heavily mined border. Every step was weighted with dread. I approached the door not knowing what form the… Read more: Battle

Right now, we’re still holding onto many threads that bind us together.But little by little, those threads will slip from one hand or the other,until only a single strand remains. And when that moment comes,we’ll let go—together or alone. When we do, I can only hopewe each find our own happy ending.

New year, new me? No, that’s not what I want. Old me, with new scars— scars that remind me I’m alive, that I’ll be okay, that I can keep growing, keep working on myself.

I don’t know how I’d react if you said, “Come to me.” Would I break down? Would I cry? Would joy overwhelm me? I truly don’t know. What I do know is that it’s getting easier. There are moments when I feel light, when I feel right. And then there are moments when everything feels… Read more: I don’t know.

You chose me, and now it’s my turn to choose myself— every day, again and again, with every moment.

What am I holding on to? I’m not sure anymore. I held on to a future that, in hindsight, might have been doomed from the start. I held on to a person I thought could help build that future with me. I clung to the ideas and values I believed we shared. But now, I’m… Read more: It’s time to try something new.

It’s dark, and my thoughts are all over the place, pulling me in too many directions. It’s hard to focus, to catch a single thought and hold onto it. They keep coming, one after another, distracting me until they all just disappear into nothing. I keep thinking about you—about where things went wrong and where… Read more: Racing Thoughts

Where do I stand? How am I doing? Where do I begin? I’m trying something new—not just writing for myself, not just speaking my thoughts aloud or transcribing them into words. This time, I’m trying to share, perhaps even perform, these reflections for an audience. Even if no one visits my little corner of the… Read more: New Approach to this

As technology advances, are we losing touch with the natural world that once defined us? This phenomenon, which I call ‘hyperdenaturalisation’, reflects our increasing disconnection from nature. In his seminal works, Jean Baudrillard introduced the concept of hyper-reality, where the line between reality and simulation is blurred, creating an environment where the artificial becomes more real than the natural. This concept has become profoundly relevant in our time, where escapism is not just a retreat from reality, but a complete departure from the natural world.

In a world where virtual reality (VR) can transport us to distant galaxies, ancient civilisations or dreamlike realms, it’s hard not to wonder about the nature of reality itself. Plato, the ancient philosopher, asked similar questions over two millennia ago in his allegory of the cave. How does his allegory relate to our experiences in… Read more: From Plato’s Cave to Virtual Worlds: Navigating Reality in the Digital Age

The loss of privacy will be a key concern, affecting both individuals and society as a whole. At an individual level, the relentless collection and analysis of personal data will lead to an invasion of personal space, a… Read more: Invasion of Privacy: AI Advertising Will Know You Better I
