Am I Pretty Enough?
When was the last time you looked at yourself in the mirror and saw just yourself, without any judgment, without searching for the bad, without evaluating those extra pounds, already thinking about the next diet or workout routine? But just yourself, as you are. As I’m opening my browser to look something up, the first…

The Psychology of Dressing Well
Fashion is often described as an useless industry, concerned only with appearances and temporary trends. Yet, when we look closer at psychological, sociological, and economic studies, we discover that clothing plays a far deeper role in human happiness. How we dress shapes our mood, our self-confidence, our social interactions, and even our mental health. Choosing…

Зошто најважниот дел од патувањето никогаш не е дестинацијата?
Постои нешто необично во чувството да се разбудиш на место каде што никогаш не си бил. Нов брег, нов хоризонт, нова приказна. Понекогаш е доволен само еден поглед кон морето за човек да сфати колку многу светови постојат надвор од неговата вообичаена рутина. Можеби токму затоа некои патувања остануваат со нас многу подолго од времето…

Why the Most Important Part of a Journey Is Never the Destination
There is something extraordinary about waking up in a place you have never been before. A new shore, a new horizon, a new story. Sometimes, all it takes is a single glance at the sea for a person to realize how many worlds exist beyond their everyday routine. Perhaps that is why some journeys stay…

Takimi i fundit
Gjithmonë shkruhetpër një takim të fundit,për një lamtumirëtë dhimbshme si fund-jete.

The Last Meeting
One always writesof one last meeting,of a farewellas painful as life’s very end. One writes of that farewell,epic, final, devastating,when you turn your head away,and pride refuses to let you look back. But the eyes of the heart remain behind your head,turned toward the face of the one who, far from you,had set out for…

My AI thinks I’m great
“Absolutely! That’s a fantastic idea. I’d love to help you with it!” Spend enough time chatting with AI and you’ll notice something: it’s remarkably supportive. It celebrates your ideas, compliments your work and rarely tells you you’re completely wrong. That’s not because it secretly believes in you. In fact, it doesn’t believe anything at all.…

A colorcoaster with a dominance of white and blue
136 km from Warsaw (the number according to Google Maps), down in eastern Poland, there is a city called Puławy. There is nothing particularly unusual about the city, it’s not very big, although located on the biggest Polish river, Vistula (Polish: Wisła). It’s pretty, neat, and very green, as are many such small cities in…

Зошто нема да ти го прифатам пивото
Постои одредено насилство во тоа да се гледа некого како исчезнува додека сè уште дише. Не мислам на драматичното распаѓање, светлата од брза помош, болничките прекривки кренати до под брадата. Мислам на бавната ерозија. Начинот на кој смеата се ублажува во заплеткан говор. Начинот на кој еден извонреден ум започнува да пропаѓа, па така детето…
