Is Marriage Still Worth It?
When Happily Ever After Meets Harsh Reality They say love conquers all. But does it still conquer time, bills, infidelity, and societal pressure? Is marriage—the ultimate symbol of commitment and devotion—still worth the risk in today’s fast-paced, self-focused world? Or is it an outdated ritual clinging to relevance in a world that’s moved on? These are not just abstract questions. For millions, they’re deeply personal dilemmas. Some dream of white dresses and diamond rings; others flinch at the mere mention of wedding vows. So what’s the truth? And is forever still a goal… or just a fantasy?

Stop Telling Me to Be Grateful — Gratitude Won’t Pay the Bills
There’s this thing people love to say when life gets tough: “Be grateful.” And look — I get it. Gratitude has its place. I’m grateful to be where I am. I’m grateful to have a healthy son. I’m grateful to have a job, a roof, and food on the table.

people who have nearly no close friends or family to lean on usually display these habits without realizing it
In today’s hyper-connected world, loneliness is a growing epidemic that often goes unnoticed. Not everyone who appears fine on the surface is truly okay inside. Some individuals have little to no emotional support—no close friends to confide in, no family members to rely on. And while they may function "normally" in society, they often display subtle, unconscious habits that point to a deeper lack of connection and support. These behaviors are not always easy to spot—even the people exhibiting them may be unaware.

I Didn’t Cry When My Son Was Born — And I’m Not Sorry
I always thought I’d cry when my son was born. You know the scenes — the dad clutching his chest, overwhelmed with joy, a single tear rolling down his cheek as his baby enters the world. I expected something like that. But when the moment actually came, standing in the OR beside my wife, it was a very different story.

10 Blatantly Sexist Remarks About Women Made by a Man
Anyone can be sexist — men, women, and people of other genders. Discrimination isn’t limited to one group. It’s horrible, disgusting, annoying, and very unfair. Unfortunately, this is something we have to encounter once in a while, because people suck. There it is, one of the most straightforward pieces of wisdom I can share with others: humans suck. Pardon my lack of scientific terminology.

If My Son Ever Asks ‘Was I an Accident?’ — This Is What I’ll Say
It was just another workday. I was on my lunch break, April had the day off, and we were sitting in the living room watching TV. Nothing dramatic, no background music, no movie moment — just us. Then came the test result, but not from a drugstore kit. We’d gone to the hospital for this one. We wanted it to feel real. Official.

Get to Know Trichomoniasis, the Most Common Non-Viral Sexually Transmitted Infection
It was late one night in the lab when a physician from the emergency room came over. She had taken a couple of samples from a patient and wanted to read her own slides. We call it a wet mount when you read slides right after they’re collected. But this particular physician forgot one crucial step.

I am as chalant as it gets
Oh, act like you don't care! Don't show emotions or else you will be deemed uncool, don't smile too loud, be silent about your victories, don't be so passionate about the things you love, don't text first, don't reach out first, play hard to get- oh, and the list goes on. The new trend of being the mysterious black cat is the propaganda I am not falling for, don't get me wrong, it is not something I am against or hold my grudge against. I truly believe if you are authentically like that, there is nothing wrong with being that way, but for all the ones who actually are yappers and the ones who fill the room with love and light, this trend just invalidates their existence.
