They document history in pages story,
In artifacts and aging monuments,
In poetry of doom and glory.
Poetry is solidarity in comments
Feeding the immortal human soul.
Solace in troubled times, Wonder
How’ll they document this end whole,
Free-verse or in rhyme yonder?
The books of Anastasia Novykh are phenomenous for the fact that every person sees as if in the mirror something of his or her own, purely personal. This book discloses the inner world of a sixteen-year-old girl, who suddenly encounters death face to face. This pushes her to reconsideration of her own life and search of answers to the everlasting questions: “What are we living for? What is the sense of life? Who am I really? Why are most of people on earth – believers? For if they believe, they must be hoping for something. What is the path by which the great achieve their inner immortality? What is hidden beyond cognition of the Human nature?”
Ungovernable energy of inner exploration leads her to meeting with a most erudite man, a martial-arts master and a very enigmatic Person, Sensei. Unordinary soul-staggering world-view of Sensei, his fascinating philosophy and knowledge of the world and of humans, dynamic martial-arts, worldly wisdom, alternative medicine, ancient spiritual practices (including effective techniques for tackling negative thoughts), human abilities phenomena. This and much more the girl learns, having touched upon the world of Sensei. But most importantly, she finds answers to her principal inner questions and learns from the personal experience that people are granted the most powerful creative force from above – the power of belief and love.
I Will Try Tomorrow
Mona Ragab
I Will Try Tomorrow Mona Ragab Barefoot and on tiptoe, I steal away like a thief fleeing with his loot. My notebook, in which my pen has been suspended for ages, is under my arm. The idea has completely captured my imagination. It has become an obsession, and there is nothing left to do but commit it to paper. I’ve been trying to write for several nights, but my weariness and overexertion have prevented me. The pressure of time and innumerable obligations works against me, but I’ve grasped the idea, and it won’t elude me. I’m not going to let this golden opportunity slip through my fingers. No one has noticed me yet—everyone is still asleep. All I have to do is avail myself of this long-awaited opportunity to the utmost. I’ll write the idea quickly and release a waterfall that yearns to inundate the barren land! It’s useless to try to silence the hot hammer that is pounding on the gate of my fortress in order to liberate what is imprisoned behind it. I’ll let the words flow freely, and later I’ll polish them little by little. Nothing matters as much as this moment, which has presented itself to me, when no one asks anything of me, when the silence receives me with open arms, and the white sheets of paper invite me to write. The moment begins now and will continue for a while, but the important thing is to commence. The extremely humid air makes me retrace my steps to the bathroom to wash my face several times. I close the door quietly, afraid that I might awaken somebody, and it causes a squeak that startles me. I rush through the long hallway to snatch an hour before the precious minutes slip away. Finally I get to the study. I open the windows, and a moist dawn breeze brushes my face. The Nile sways to and fro with its silver rays, and green leaves dance on its surface, as yet undisturbed by the fishing boats and the irksome rounds of the river-bus. My imagination paints the picture of a young woman standing at the water’s edge, staring at nothing. I open my notebook and begin to write: “She met him, and he started speaking to her in a tone of voice that electrified her in the midst of the deep silence.” Here it is; the story is born. “She fell in love with him, not knowing how or when . . .” I hear a voice shattering the silence of the unfolding dawn, a cry that is rising higher and higher: “Mama!” I throw the pen away and run in alarm to the bedroom. My little son has awakened and wants his feeding bottle. I prepare it quickly for him, so that he will not make noise, though I know that he likes to drink it very slowly. I wait submissively while I cuddle him tenderly to lull him to sleep. When he finishes his bottle, I put him in his bed and hasten to leave on tiptoe. Then a scream pierces me from the other side of the room. “Mama, I want to drink.” My daughter, who is older, always complains of thirst and cannot bear the intense heat. “Mama, the mosquitoes bit me. Bring me something to soothe the itch.” I ...

From Bullet to Blue Sky
1 The sun was in the process of its morning stretch. While the residents of gated communities came alive to be greeted by the tropical heat of south Florida, the stragglers of the universe awoke to the sounds of a 9 mm dispersing its gun powder to the blue sky. The ghetto houses that sheltered these citizens were painted different colors; some exposed faded paint, and others told stories in graffiti, inspired by gang artists marking their territories. Roll bars protected the windows covered with filthy bed sheets that not even dogs would lie on. 231232Broken toy pieces scattered over the dead grass in the yard outside. The lanky, dark-haired girl lay in her bed twisting and turning, trying to catch a cool wave from the ceiling fan that spun and thumped overhead all night. She always heard the same dogs barking; her ears still rang from the sound of that gun. She still felt the warm, thin blood that stained her hands. She still felt a sharp, pounding pain along her left side; for every breath she took, the pain reminded her she was human. She had witnessed many shootings before; she had seen more blood in her days. Why was this shooting any different? It was because for the first time she was the victim. I understood her pain, for I was that girl.
2 It all started with Mr. Tangye in the fall of 2004. He was an inspiring math teacher, who convinced me that I had more to offer this world than I had thought. As the bell rang at Conniston Middle School, we marched like zombies to our classes. I passed through dark hallways of vandalized lockers with torn papers and ripped books scattered over the ground like a dump. I made my way past the miserable teachers and devilish students. The administrators surrounded the hallways like a S.W.A.T. team, commanding everyone to go to class, I walked into Mr. Tangye’s math class; he had a bright, white smile that hurt my eyes every time I looked at him. Before I could make it to my seat, Mr. Tangye handed me a paper that itched my fingers; it was a math test. I stared at that test, and I begged my brain to wake up! The other kids shuffled the paper back and forth on top of their desks or used it as a pillow on which to lay their heads. I secretly tried my best at every problem and flippantly turned it in.
3 As the bell rang, I dashed for the exit. I swiftly dropped off my homework, but Mr. Tangye caught me and pulled me aside to show me my test. He said, “You are the only one who has passed the test.” Then as Mr. Tangye showed my grade to me, he said, “You are on the borderline of failing or passing this class, I’d like to see you pass!” I listened to every word he said because I was tired of being perceived as an idiot.
4 As I finished out the rest of that day, all I could think about was whether to study or not to study. I hated being stuck between a world that offered happiness and stability, whose proverb was “anything is possible” and a world that followed the theory of Charles Da ...

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts

In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

5 Public speaking tips from TED - Visualized summarySpeakerHub

For individuals, now is the time to pinpoint the skills the future professional will need to thrive in the AI age.
Check out this presentation to understand what ChatGPT is, how it will shape the future of work, and how you can prepare to take advantage.

T/W- Existential Crisis
They document history in pages story,
In artifacts and aging monuments,
In poetry of doom and glory.
Poetry is solidarity in comments
Feeding the immortal human soul.
Solace in troubled times, Wonder
How’ll they document this end whole,
Free-verse or in rhyme yonder?
Perhaps it’ll document online,
Like our lives.
The remnants of history fine,
Caught within data-bytes.
And so, five poets came online,
To show their experience of this quarantine, live.
On the twentieth day of the lockdown,
Five poets opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine
At the end of this line.
“Online Zoom Classes,” said one.
6. “It’s a new phenomenon,” agreed another.
“Waking up at seven or eight,
The whole class comes together,
Slowly over bad network,
We learn the history of life,
And watch the dissection of a feather.”
“I suppose online therapy is fine,” added another,
“We all need it in these troubled times.”
“Online therapy?”
“Oh yes. On WhatsApp video are shared the solutions to
grief and to life,
Medicines are offered online,
As well as many ears to listen over call,
As we all social-distance.”
“Oh yes, no one can conquer distance in this time.”
“Yet teachers do it, give us a sense of normal,
When they conduct classes over Zoom or Skype,
Everyone complains of the mental toll
That exams seek, yet no one applauds their tenacity.”
On the twentieth day of the lockdown,
Five opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine
At the end of this line.
“I learnt things online,” added another.
“For one I experienced love and cooking through a screen,
When my mother sent me a picture of Thai Curry,
7. She had learnt from a YouTube channel,
Yet seeing it made me feel like I was home, instead of all
alone.”
“Meals that fill your heart
Include desserts like tart
Some spicy, crunchy food
And a film to set to mood
And now the feasting could start.
To cook it by yourself is neat
Some easy recipes to eat
Include butter and bread
With chicken on a lettuce bed
And toasted on medium heat.
Some fruits would be nice
And some coke with some ice
With a bag of salted chips
And some fries with a crisp
And perhaps some fried rice."
On the twentieth day of the lockdown,
Five opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine
At the end of this line.
"I met my best friend across cities again,
Seeing her hale and hearty was a relief,
In this time of pandemic.
8. Hearing of people stuck away from home,
Dying of death and disease,
A lack of utilities
I snuggle closer to my Mother.
Glad to be safe and sheltered,
With food on my plate
And family by my side."
I still struggle through the quarantine-
As every plan seems to fall apart,
As every fight turns into a war,
I remind myself of those
Stuck away from home,
All alone,
And wonder how would I miss this then-
The security of home,
The privileges found online,
As wars chant the name of Gods,
And people in hospitals suffered,
Out of necessity the world shut down,
Further away from loved ones ourselves we found,
I thank my stars,
For hearth and health so fine,
During this quarantine.
When doctors and labourers fought a war
To save lives,
I stayed safe indoors and read the news online,
My only contribution during this time.”

Five opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine

“I read a few new books online,” said the first, “Feeding
the marrows of my mind.”
Pulled old books that had gathered dust,
Renewed interest in Vine and vinyl I could find.”
“Taking care of yourself is a must,
And, to your close ones, be kind.
Inside all of our crusts,
Resides the same organs lined.”
On the twentieth day of the lockdown,
Five opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine

“I made love through a screen,” added another.
“To myself and another,
Treating my skin to some care,
A glow-up for my face and hair.”
"Welcome back to my channel",
The most heard phrase,
Sometimes giving joy,
Sometimes providing hope,
Sometimes just passing time.
You start with basic skincare,
Then go on extra pampering,
10. End with the dream of a radiating,
Glowing skin.
Hope that your skin and existence,
Are going to get sunlight to bloom,
Prosper and shine.”
On the twentieth day of the lockdown,
Five opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine
At the end of this line.
“I caught up on some series,
Netflix and solo-chill!”
“Are you really in "Netflix and chill?”
Or you, just trying to escape?
Escape from reality?
Escape the mundane?
Escape loneliness?
Or escape the everlasting question of human existence?
Or do you need a reminder how to laugh, love and live?
Are you really doing "Netflix and chill?”
On the twentieth day of the lockdown,
Five opened their minds,
And began to wonder what history would mine
At the end of this line.
As one after another the doors were locked up, stepping
out into the open became a life threat,
11. I asked myself-
Staying indoors will keep me safe. But will it keep me
alive?
The chirping of the sparrows, barking of the street dogs
replied- we have asked that question for years while you all
were out here mutilating Home!
I picked up the dark device that kept us away from Nature
for so long. The Newsflash showed "Delhi's air cleanest in
a decade".
And after that, it continued...
Global warming, climate change, ocean plastic, animal
torture, species extinction, 5G, and all other monsters;
Wikipedia, articles, blogs, documentaries, celebrity
activists, e-books and all other mediums:
Locked in my own room with a tiny electronic, I visited the
whole planet!
I came closer to my mother, Earth,
understood her pain and pledged to make a change!
Ironic, how virtualization brought about the most crucial,
realistic realization!
“And we all created poetry…”
“That’s how we made it through,
This quarantine.”
12. Once
Once upon a time,
In a land far far away,
Was how they all began.
Once upon a time…
A knight helped fight demons,
All hours of the day and night,
To tales of such heroic women,
I closed mine eyes.
Once upon a time…
A prince slew a dragon’s price,
A princess became a scholar bride
To save the love in their life,
To their wedding bells’ chime,
I closed mine eyes.
13. Once upon a time…
A hero learned a lesson new,
Something revealed to few,
Lessons- these tales shaped me.
Once upon a time,
A dragon slept on a pile,
With that treasure, I spent my while.
Once upon a time,
A prince learned and grew,
A new age ushered in,
A scribe caught in the net of a seer,
Ended decades of tyranny,
Courage bowing to no will divine,
Free will a champion’s pioneer-
After their words, I started my story.
14. Promised I did to fan curiosity.
Dragons speak, in legends of old,
Through time and space, when stories are told
Once upon a time,
A woman defied a beast,
Shoved away unloving men of whom she had no need,
To her story, I paid heed.
Once upon a time,
True love was formed,
Trials were won, truth was known,
Personality of love, did I learn.
Once upon a time,
Soul-mates chose to be siblings,
Showing love came in a million ways,
A million a dime,
15. Re-forging fate’s strings,
To love myself, they taught me.
Once upon a time
When Reality grasped the child in a chokehold,
They reached out their hand
Eyes closed as the fingers enclosed around the knob
To the Magic Trapdoor
To the tales and stories,
I closed mine eyes.
Once upon a time,
A mistake was made,
Penance was paid, knowledge
Of forgiveness in love, I gained.
Once upon a time,
Sat around tables went up a cry,
16. Hear Ye, Hear Ye!
A tale to unfold
A story to be told
The day has ended
We have tales to tell,
Tales that lasted well into the night.
Once upon a time,
A ruler ruled in guise,
The most benevolent and loved
Leader of all time,
Despite some naming their birth a crime
Upon their victory’s highs,
I vowed, to form mine.
Wyverns are separate, dragons they aren't,
Like men are not monkeys and mountains are not towers.
17. Once upon a time,
Virtues and vices came together,
In growth year by year, decade by decade,
Like fine wine humans tend to age,
To their tales, eyes I closed mine.
Like man, do beliefs morph and become
Different from what they had strived to preserve.
Once upon a time,
A change of perspective
Brought forward questions unsettling,
Learning to see the world from several eyes
Learning to understand survival and being nice,
I closed mine eyes.
Once upon a time,
The darkness of the night-
18. Does not always scare her.
But the dull ache in her heart often tingles still.
While looking for a remedy,
What will she find in the Magic Shop?
To adventures inside,
I closed mine eyes.
Once upon a time,
Pain was as beauty disguised-
Even as beauty could be found in the same things
Without pain being a part of it.
To the world’s cruelty, and learning to stand up to it,
I fell asleep.
Once upon a time,
A trial was held for a king,
Madness and tyranny were his reign,
19. A tale that sent shivers with me to bed.
Once upon a time,
A queen rejected every king,
Decided alone wasn’t lonely,
Creating democracy from regime,
Progress nestled under her wing
In ways apart from society.
Once upon a time,
I learnt of a magician
That built worlds with ink,
Learning to flow from it I did.
Once upon a time,
A write ventured-
Into spaces not exactly meant for her
To sisterhood and magic
20. In spaces that between time and space exist
I closed mine eyes.
In modern times, where do gods be?
In monasteries or getting a cup of coffee?
Once upon a time,
In a land far far away,
Where they all began,
Goblins and dragons and witches and hime,
Honorable thieves ran circles around monarchs fey,
Kingdoms fell and rose again,
Like it happened every Tuesday,
Once upon a time,
In a land far far away.
Once upon a time,
In a land far far away,
21. Lay lessons my grandparent taught me,
Wrapped in delightful stories paradigm
That shaped me, held me in sway,
Slowly like pottery, now I see,
The truth nestled in me
“Once upon a time,
In a land far far away…”
