Are you one of the few people who still believe that words have the power to change the world? Do you feel ecstatic when you receive love letters among the neverending printed bills and promotional junk? Are you the kind that manages to write something for your best friend using paper and pen in the world of WhatsApp messages and emails? Well, think about this: you open your mailbox to find a handwritten letter just for you? Won’t it make you feel special?

The More Love Letters movement was the brainchild of Hannah Brencher. Her twenties were a period of …

Anyone with a passion for photography would know that your muse could be anywhere, and anyone. Photographer Dean Mason believed that and found his muse in harvest mice. It might sound a bit off-putting for people but hear us out.

The harvest mice make for cute muses due to their large ears and short whiskers. They are quite tiny, almost half the size of a house mouse! But what makes them photogenic is the uncertainty of their actions. These mice are fun-spirited animals and they spend their time jumping from harvest to harvest.

Mason’s photography is focused mostly on how …

Disneyland is closed for now. Yes, it’s a really hard pill to swallow. But no need to be terribly depressed about the temporary closing of Disneyland. While you may not get a chance to be there in person, you can always go for a virtual tour. The best thing about Disney fans is that they record everything and share it online so that others can live the experience. You can easily head over to YouTube and go for a long virtual tour down Disneyland while sitting in your home. Plus, if you are lucky, you can get to see certain …

If you are from a family who lives with a loved one with dementia, you would probably know how difficult it can turn out to be. You are always on your toes, hoping that your loved one with dementia does not just forget the route to the house or run away out of some whim. These patients should be taken extra care of and ideally, someone should always keep a watch on them. However, for any family member, it can be quite a difficult thing to keep a loved one with dementia in sight all the time. It is during …

I’m currently reading “How to See Yourself as You Really Are”, a book written by the Dalai Lama. It’s a somewhat short read, and might require you to read it twice to extract a proper understanding of the principles taught within it.

However, it’s packed with powerful lessons and techniques, based on seeing objects, people, and circumstances as they truly are, not just as they first appear. As well as advice, on focus, concentration, and meditation.

Which brings me to this article!

7 Steps to Meditation for Beginners

There’s a section within the book where the Dalai Lama shares …

Dropping friends from your life in order for you to gain true fulfilment, happiness and a higher purpose. Friends can come into our lives in many ways. Maybe we like their company because they make us laugh, they are supportive, or they are simply fun to hang around with.

However, what if we choose friends for all the wrong reasons? What happens then?

We become side-tracked from our true purpose. We lose sight of our goals, our dreams and our aspirations. We spend more time with people who aren’t helping us level up.

Sure, it may be fun. You may …

Though we see it basically as a paper cup, it may not be as bio-degradable in reality.

Yes, the base material used for the takeaway coffee cups are biodegradable but, no, the cups are not so. All these cups, whether made from paper or fiber or any other environmental-friendly material, are layered with a …

Every day since her dad passed away, Chastity Patterson, from Arkansas, sent him a text message. On the fourth anniversary, she shared a screenshot of the touching text to her dad on social media.

Instead of the typical silence in response to her message, a man who has her dad’s old number responded to Chastity, an event she saw as a ‘sign that everything is okay and I can let him rest’.

Chastity wrote:

It’s been 4 years since I lost you and not a day goes by that I don’t miss you. A lot has happened in that small …

Homeless unaccounted people are an issue every county and every government has to deal with. Most of them are healthy adults who could contribute greatly to the economy if they were made a part of it. But the sheer number of people, which exceeds hundreds of thousands in countries like America, makes it a daunting task according to National Alliance to End Homelessness in America.

Six years ago, Veronica Scott, an industrial design student of College for Creative Studies, Detroit was inspired by the idea of taking up a project that “filled the need” of their city. She worked to …
