Tranquil

"The scent of rain is the earth’s whisper, a reminder that even in stillness, nature breathes beauty"
"There’s an undeniable magic in the air just before it rains—the way the earthy scent rises from the ground and mingles with the fresh, cool breeze. The sky hangs low, heavy with clouds, casting a soft, muted light that seems to hush the world, creating a peaceful stillness. You sit quietly, cradling a warm cup of coffee☕️, its rich aroma blending with the damp, rain-soaked earth around you. Beside you, the person you love sits close, wrapped in the same tranquil moment, content and at ease. In this perfect silence, everything feels whole, as though time itself could stop and you wouldn’t even notice. There’s nothing more you need; in this shared stillness, the world feels complete.

From ignorance to "Oh crap!" In 60 seconds

"Ah, the golden days of blissful ignorance! Back when 'because Mom said so' was just a suggestion, deadlines were mythical creatures, and my parent's wise advice went in one ear and did a celebratory conga line out the other. Good times! Now, suddenly, all that 'wasted' time I was so busy not valuing, has mysteriously vanished. It's like my personal time bank ⏳️🏦 got robbed by the Responsibility Bandit! Now I'm over here dramatically weeping into my empty schedule, realizing that apparently, time isn't just a suggestion either. Who knew?! 🤔Turns out, that ticking clock🕑 wasn't just a fancy wall decoration after all. Live and learn, I guess... mostly learn the hard way, with a side of existential dread and a newfound appreciation for the concept of 'yesterday'."

Beauty -Through a Different Lens: The Mursi and Suri Lip Plate Tradition🎭

What is beautiful? For the Mursi and Suri tribes of Ethiopia (african tribe), beauty isn't about trends or what's in a magazine—it's a clay plate. This centuries-old tradition involves stretching the lower lip to wear a distinctive lip plate. Far from a simple accessory, the reasons behind this practice are deeply woven into their culture. While a widely circulated theory suggests it began as a way to make women less desirable to slave traders, this has been largely dismissed by modern anthropologists. Instead, the lip plate is a powerful expression of a woman's social status, identity, and personal worth. The size of the plate is often linked to the dowry paid in cattle for a marriage, with a larger plate signifying a 1greater value. It's also a rite of passage, marking a girl's transition into womanhood and her eligibility for marriage👰‍♀. The Mursi and Suri lip plate tradition challenges us to look beyond our own perceptions and see beauty as it...
