Hope Is Underrated
We hit the gym because we hope to feel better. We brush our teeth because we hope to smell better. We take a bath because we hope to feel fresh. These don’t feel like hope because they almost always work. But they are still hope—just backed by strong evidence. When hope repeats enough times, we…

Seattle to vegas roadtrip
We completed our third major road trip in the United States. Roughly 2,600 miles, 6 states, temperatures ranging from 40°F to 110°F, and our longest single-day drive touching nearly 850 miles. It was a combination of mountain towns, isolated highways, state parks, deserts, and cities — though the center of the trip was clearly Las…

A Fake Image Doesn’t Last Forever
Stalin’s Famine (1932–1933): Under Joseph Stalin, the Soviet Union forced farmers into collective farms and seized grain to fund industrial growth, but the policy backfired as agricultural output fell and millions were left without food.

No curiosity about each other’s presence. What worried me was not just the silence, but how normal it seemed to them. I had to enter the room deliberately to…

Stop Postponing Life: Live Fully Today
We tend to prepare too much for life while forgetting to actually live it. We generate wealth for future generations, learn from gurus how to live a good life, compromise peace today to guarantee peace tomorrow, and do work we dislike to secure a “safe” future. But has it ever occurred to you that you…

The Only Resolution You Need in 2026
A self-aware life is roughly forty years long. It feels unfair to decide its direction just once a year in the form of goals. If I were good at math, that would mean forty goals—allowing life to take forty turns. Yet we are barely scratching the surface of our untapped potential. Most yearly goals are…
