love
All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.
Peace demands emotional maturity.
Los Angeles, 2023. It was a Thursday evening, and only Mason and I were in the house as our Thursdays used to be. The evening started with some art explorations. Between a monster and a robot, Mason began to tell me about two kids who were reacting violently during playtime at his preschool. One was a boy, and the other was a girl. They were biting and pushing other kids when their demands were not met. Mason told me about it with a disappointed look and a sad voice; it was somehow sweet to notice that he was upset with the situation.

Comic Connection
The once vibrant Comic Connection sat cloaked in an eerie silence. Gone were the joyful guffaws and the excited chatter of comic book enthusiasts. Ten-year-old Maya, owner's niece and self-proclaimed "Comic Whisperer," felt a shiver crawl down her spine. Where had the laughter gone? Was it a disgruntled villain, a mischievous prankster from the pages, or something more sinister? Maya, armed with her boundless imagination and a magnifying glass fit for a detective, vowed to unravel the mystery and restore the laughter to The Comic Connection.

Cat in the Rain
There were only two Americans stopping at the hotel. They did not know any of the people they passed on the stairs on their way to and from their room. Their room was on the second floor facing the sea. It also faced the public garden and the war monument. There were big palms and green benches in the public garden. In the good weather there was always an artist with his easel. Artists liked the way the palms grew and the bright colors of the hotels facing the gardens and the sea. Italians came from a long way off to look up at the war monument. It was made of bronze and glistened in the rain. It was raining. The rain dripped from the palm trees. Water stood in pools on the gravel paths. The sea broke in a long line in the rain and slipped back down the beach to come up and break again in a long line in the rain. The motor cars were gone from the square by the war monument. Across the square in the doorway of the café a waiter stood looking out at the empty square.

We all have made our New Year resolutions and have faltered in our discourse of being consistent and true about it. To be consistent in your stance, you need clarity and focus on what you are headed towards, when the head is lost in aimless directions of what should be, we lose our sight of what we are and where we should be headed. In absolute honesty, I too was directionless in the first 6 months of my existence in 2024. To give you more insight into my journey here is my account of the first half of 2024-

HOW TO DEAL WITH NEGATIVE EMOTIONS
An unanticipated and problematic aspect of being human is that we feel far more than we consciously acknowledge. Emotions such as anger, joy, resentment, and fear run through us, lying just outside the realm of ordinary consciousness and eluding you as we race through life's challenges.
