Is Anyone truly happy?

With the way I fall in and out of inspiration/motivation, I’ll say that I am one of the most insatiable humans on earth. I mean, at what point would I say that I am truly satisfied with life? For me, peace of mind is the stillness enjoyed in between partying with the angels and battling the demons. Right now, it’s

Living for an audience of ONE

I’m obligated to perform thrice a day.I say performance while in reality, I am talking about prayers. For me, this is the process of me shifting perspective towards living for God from living for people. The conclusion is, we’ve all got to live for something and that is what defines what we collectively call PURPOSE. PURPOSE… mentally biting my nails

Being a Successful Person

Let me start by confessing to the fact that an Asian Thriller on Netflix “Super Me” largely inspired this. As the main character in the said movie quoted “people who are successful in life are either traitors or thieves” and although he was trying to be intentionally philosophical, I could see the truth in his words. This caused me to
