My Mother and Her Stories
A madeup story about my mother's storytelling and how it was shaped by my mother's emotions, mood swings, and personal experiences. Despite her narcissism, she was a captivating storyteller who influenced my appreciation for narratives. Through her, I learned about life, empathy, and the power of a well-told story. Our parents are our first teachers, and I've come to cherish the valuable lessons learned from my mother's unique storytelling.
Short Story | The Sleeping Child
The narrator reflects on life's paradoxes while putting a child to sleep. The author ponders the innocence of childhood and the complexities of adulthood, likening life to an endless carnival. The carnival symbolises the ups and downs of human existence, where moments of joy and laughter contrast with grim realities. After the child awakens, it's time for the child's feed.
Materialistic Confusion Confounded

They reflect on deliberate choices, middle-class principles, and finding balance amidst conflicting mindsets. Amidst the loneliness, the author embraces solitude and gives priorities to personal rewards over societal validation, detaching from the digital world's urgency and seeking profound echoes of the author's choices.
