"The Interpretation of Dreams" by Sigmund Freud: A Journey into the Unconscious Mind
"The Interpretation of Dreams" by Sigmund Freud: A Journey into the Unconscious Mind "The Interpretation of Dreams" is not just a book; it is the foundation of modern psychology and a journey into the mysterious world of the unconscious. First published in 1899, this book revolutionized our understanding of dreams. Dreams are no longer seen as random or meaningless images; instead, they are glimpses into our hidden desires, fears, and experiences. Freud's writing is a blend of science, philosophy, and personal discovery. This book explains how dreams are formed, their connection to the unconscious mind, and how they reveal hidden truths through symbols. Although it can be challenging, for those interested in understanding the human mind, it is a feast for the intellect.

The Age of Secondhand Emotions: How Social Media Has Turned Us Into Borrowers of Other People’s Feelings. AI-Generated.
There was a time when feelings were private. Grief happened behind closed doors, joy was shared over phone calls, and anger was reserved for real-world confrontations. Now, all of it is broadcast, looped, liked, and commented on. In the age of Instagram Reels and TikTok For You pages, feelings are no longer just felt—they are performed, consumed, and echoed. We are living in the age of secondhand emotions, where we experience feelings not through our own lives, but through the curated and choreographed lives of others.

How TikTok Changed the Way We Think About Fame
There was a time when fame came wrapped in decades of effort. Musicians performed in empty bars before stadiums. Actors climbed theater steps before the red carpet. Writers survived rejection letters stacked like towers before seeing print. Time was the currency fame demanded—years, sometimes lifetimes.

Hangxiety, are you worth it?
I've stopped thinking in black and white. Right and Wrong have left the building. Instead, the era of nuance has arrived. Measured responses, figuring this out in proportion to how I experience this life. And it has made things so much harder, suddenly there is no All or Nothing, only a constant array of Somethings.

The Age of Digital Solitude. AI-Generated.
There’s a peculiar irony in the fact that we’ve never been more connected—and never felt more alone. At any given moment, you can message a friend, join a group chat, scroll through countless lives on your feed, or video call someone halfway across the globe. Technology has dissolved distances, collapsed borders, and placed entire communities in our palms. But something’s missing. Something very human. Something we forgot to feel.
