The Night the Gym Felt Like Church
I didn’t go for the basketball. I went because my nephew asked me to. He’s thirteen, wears his hair in messy curls, and talks about the game like it’s a secret language only he and the ball understand. “You have to see how they move together, Uncle,” he’d said, eyes wide. “It’s like they’re speaking without words.”

The Main Reasons Call Of Duty is Dying
(Intro) Call of Duty is not only one of the largest first-person shooters out there across all platforms, for many including myself, it was substantially impactful on my younger years growing up and playing online games with my friends and with others around the world. From the legendary Call of Duty 4 and Modern Warfare 2 games, to World at War and the first couple of black ops games, this franchise is important to so many people, and it’s not a surprise to say that the last half decades’ worth of Call of Duty experiences haven’t really hit the mark. But why? What has happened to Call of Duty that has created such a negative connotation when you even just mention the franchise out loud? There are a LOT of reasons that can be pointed to and called the culprit to the downfall of this franchise, but today, I wanted to look at some potential reasons that are maybe just a little more below the surface. I’m not going to breaking any new ground or coming up with some revolutionary reasons that haven’t already been addressed, but I think if we put aside the obvious answers for a moment and look at Call of Duty across all of the more modern titles, and compare the older titles, we can come to some interesting conclusions that maybe people have either forgotten or simply didn’t think about in this context. So, let’s have a conversation about Call of Duty; the rise and fall of this series and what is truly preventing it from making a triumphant return that enjoyers of this series would love to see come back into their regular gaming rotation.

The Night the Future Felt Like Hope
I didn’t go to the store for inspiration. I went because I was out of coffee. It was a Tuesday in early March—gray, damp, the kind of morning that clings to your shoulders like a wet coat. I hadn’t slept. My mind was a tangle of unread messages, overdue bills, and the low hum of dread that had become my baseline. The grocery store was just a pit stop on the way to another day I wasn’t sure I could face.

The Night the Arena Felt Like a Time Machine. AI-Generated.
I didn’t go to the library for answers. I went because it was the only place where silence wasn’t judged. It was the winter after my divorce. My apartment felt too loud with absence—echoes in the hallway, empty chairs at the table, the hum of a refrigerator that used to be background noise but now sounded like loneliness amplified. So every Tuesday at 2 p.m., I walked the three blocks to the public library, took the same seat by the window, and opened a book I never read.

The Porch Light That Stayed On
I didn’t notice the porch light at first. It was just another fixture on a quiet street lined with oak trees and tired mailboxes. But every night at 9 p.m., without fail, it clicked on—even in rain, even in summer heat, even when no one was home.
