            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why do our priorities and emotions suddenly change?</p><p>And the silence becomes louder.</p><p>A mother gives birth to multiple children in the same womb. All are kept for almost the same period of time, facing the difficulties of pregnancy with the same bravery, completing her period with the same emotions for each of her children, thinking and planning not for her but for her child as well. Bearing the same pain while delivering each <a href="http://child.ry/">child.</a></p><p>Every time she is a mother to a newborn, she feeds every child from the same breast, sings lullabies in the same lap, holds their fingers and teaches them to walk, teaches them to speak with endless patience by repeating every single word until the child learns it, teaches them how to sips without chocking, taught them to eat by giving a tiny bites at a time, and teaches them to talk with the same dedication and nurturing tactics. Her time, love, care, protection, strength, kindness, sacrifice, and devotion are unchanged for her children.</p><p>Even the tales she told her children are the same, lesson-filled with love and camaraderie.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*bxIlKoMdyblwP6_dT7CzrQ.jpeg" /><figcaption>Thanks to Jessica Rokowitz on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p>Always guided her children to share the food or toys with their siblings, taught them not to fight and to live together in harmony. Her lifelong wish is to see her children stay together.</p><p>But not in every family; I experienced this in most families as children grow; their thoughts, feelings, and emotions toward one another often change.</p><p>Siblings become distant from each other. Feelings turn into indifference, emotions fade away, and love turns into hatred. ???</p><p>A mother teaches us how to live.</p><p>She teaches us to love.</p><p>She teaches us to live together.</p><p>She feeds us all from the same plate with the same spoon.</p><p>Her gentle words, her compassionate tone, her comforting voice, the way she embraces all her children at once, and how she empties herself of every beautiful quality just to pour them into her children</p><p>.</p><p>A mother dedicates her entire life helping us become better in every aspect of life. But once we grow up, get educated, and become successful, we begin to believe that we are wiser, more capable, and somehow superior to her.</p><p>As children, we forget every sacrifice, countless efforts she made to keep us united, to hold us together with an unbreakable bond as one family.</p><p>Our future, our desires, and our personal interests become more important to us. In chasing them, we slowly walk away from the most beautiful embrace we have ever <a href="http://known.to/">known.</a></p><p>Then we, one by one, become consumed by the struggle to build our own futures.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Learning the most spoken language in the world can change your life entirely.</strong></p><p>After realizing, that the situation I’m in needs to change. I want to use my skills to build a successful online career. My goal is to make my life easier and more comfortable. I took my laptop out of the closet, cleaned it, and had it repaired at a shop so I could use it properly. Then I started searching online for how to use my skills and change my life.</p><p>The first challenge I faced was the language barrier. My poor understanding of the language made me feel worried, so I decided to improve it. Still struggling for the betterment. I practice every single day to improve my language skills with ChatGPT and other AI tools; I also read magazines, watch movies, and try to write daily, making sure to do my best and fulfil my dreams of progress. I know I’m not there yet, but I’m working on it. I will continue to struggle, stay consistent, never give up, and achieve my goals one day.</p><h3>Realizing the reality:</h3><p>Nowadays, it is very important to learn, understand, and speak English to communicate with people around the world. English is the most widely spoken language globally and is commonly used for communication between people of different backgrounds.</p><p>There are millions of people around the world earning from online businesses, including e-commerce, freelancing, content creation, online services, and many other digital skills.</p><p>If you have mastery of digital skills but don’t have a grip on the English language, your success may be limited.</p><p>Learning English is also essential for students, as it improves academic performance.</p><p>By practicing daily and improving themselves day by day, they can enhance their reading and learning skills.</p><h3>5 best ways to improve your English:</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*IfjbOx0-Ujmgnk6e-cAJNg.jpeg" /><figcaption>Thought Catalog is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><ul><li>Read a book daily for 5 to 10 minutes. Read it loudly.</li><li>Watch a movie for 10 to 15 minutes daily.</li><li>Have a conversation with someone good at English.</li><li>Write a short story daily or read a small paragraph from a newspaper and rewrite it in your own words.</li><li>Learn 5 new words daily and make a sentence with every single word.</li></ul><h3>Overcome fear:</h3><p>Now, we have to understand that overcoming fear is very important for achieving success and conquering your dream goals. Don’t be afraid of mistakes; mistakes never let you down, but mistakes are the road to the destination of success; walk with patience and confidence. Every mistake is an awareness, and every little awareness leads you to a milestone, and every milestone leads you to perfection.</p><p>So guys, don’t look at your failures; try, try and try again and again; turn your failures into fulfillment.</p><p>Live your life and enjoy the achievements with pride and satisfaction.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*3kYiaQ72Fb0RpssmqqjdOw.jpeg" /><figcaption>Afif Ramdhasuma is on Unsplah</figcaption></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=4eaaf9fe0a48" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

A baby is influenced not only by her voice but also by emotions and the environment, which can shape early development.</p><p>After coming into the world, the baby recognizes the mother’s voice and already knows that the arms holding me are the safest place in the world, and who is holding me is my own and a very special person for me for the rest of my life.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*DowcHiaUl4drcw3qVCKVAQ.jpeg" /><figcaption>Isaac Quesada is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p>Our ancient women believed that a mother’s emotions during pregnancy could influence her baby. They believed that a happy and cheerful mother would have a joyful baby, while a mother who remained angry or stressed throughout pregnancy could affect the child’s nature. They also believe that if a mother eats something happily, the baby also likes to eat it, and if she didn’t eat something during this period, the baby dislikes it. If she listens to music during gestation, the baby will also be a music lover. How much truth there is in this, God knows, but I believe that the bond of mother and child is not created in this world; it is something that is crafted by God Himself, tied in a strong knot of the relation that can’t be terminated on earth.</p><p>After a tough period of pregnancy, she endures the pain of labor to bring her baby into the world. That may be the happiest moment of her life. Still smiling, she carries us proudly, accomplishing something remarkable. This is not the end of her struggles, but the beginning of new efforts and phases to nurture a child. Carrying in her womb for nine months, she brings us into this world from a clot of blood and helps us rise among the most successful people and high achievers.</p><p>Our initial nourishment is mother’s milk, produced in her body, nourishments drawn from her blood, and we take this blessing for almost two years, squeezing the nourishment from her body, letting her become weak.</p><p>From the very first second of our lives, the days when we can’t speak, and cannot call out to her, we can’t run toward her, we start wailing for her attention, leaving everything else aside, she rushes toward us, and holds us in her warm embrace to cuddle us.</p><p>When we get sick, she is the first to know, and then we are taken to the doctor for an examination.</p><p>She understands our moods. She is always aware of our desires, without any explanations.</p><p>Our first learning institute is on a mother’s lap.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*QHKIUndMEQA_MUsZwjUdCw.jpeg" /><figcaption>Vitaly Gariev is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p>We learn to love, smile, express emotions, and develop positive behaviors from our mothers.</p><p>She teaches us to drink, eat, walk, and talk. When we sob, she is the only one who tries to make us happy, and even a little smile from us makes her overjoyed.</p><p>Years later, our schooling starts. A mother is the one who instils faith in what we learn at school. The day’s activities are discussed with her, whether we are in school, in college, or have reached the university.</p><p>In every challenging situation, she is always there to provide us with an easy solution according to our temperament and needs.</p><p>At every second, minute, day, week, month, and year of our lives, we are helpless without her.</p><p>Any achievement we earn, we hurry to tell her, because through her prayers and efforts, we have achieved it, and she will be the happiest person about my achievement.</p><p>Our everlasting and forever best friend is our mother.</p><p>But there is a deeply heartbreaking side to the bond with a mother as well.</p><p>Is everything I wrote above true? There should be no doubt about it for a single person on this planet.</p><h3>THEN:</h3><p>Why is the number of old homes increasing all over the world?</p><p>Children neglect all the sacrifices of their parents, especially their mother, and leave them alone in this cruel world to be shoved?</p><p>What are the reasons for broken relationships?</p><p>Insensitivity?</p><p>Inflexibility?</p><p>Immodesty?</p><p>Selfishness?</p><p>Or something else? This cannot be understood or defined.</p><p>But whatever it is, it is so painful, and it is not a mistake; it is a sin.</p><p>And this is a sin that is unforgivable by God.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*E5-kdExGmK2UAdgVDOo1gQ.jpeg" /><figcaption>Rostyslav Savchyn is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=befd3659f34f" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

And we seem to stand helplessly in front of the closed doors that are standing in our way, with great strength. We are not brave enough to open them up and start running again. And even though we don’t know what’s ahead, we are running toward an end or going to embrace a more brutal life waiting for us. Stepping back is also not easy; we are just stuck in the dreadful situation, and there’s no way out. Maybe our Voyage, which we started to get rid of hard times to ease our lives, began in a hurry without knowing there might be a dark end ahead. We just started to run out of the current zone. Thinking we are overcoming every hurdle in our life, and in a while we will achieve our goal and put ourselves in a position we have been looking for years. We left behind all the hard times and all the pains that had been hurting us for years. Considering that we defeated our enemies, but our flight was useless, and life is still at a crossroads. And we are standing in front of a locked door.</p><p>We have to accept that sometimes our decisions are wrong, and that impatience can lead us into an even more difficult situation than before. There is deep darkness on every side, and the way forward is not clear.</p><p>Now we are alone, and our hearts are filled with despair. The first thought that came to mind was to shout out to a person we think can get us out of this tough situation, hold our hand, and set us free. And we can exhale a deep breath under the blue sky. But it doesn’t happen the way we imagine. To face this situation over and over, but still relying on unstable support- why? No doubt this support is for the time being. And every time you trust someone, you will face a setback. So have courage and move forward. Let go of dependence on this world’s support systems.</p><p>Trust in yourself and the only Permanent refuge. Our everlasting companion is with us in sorrows, grief, difficulties, distress, hardships, challenges, struggles, and in every pain we feel inside our hearts, and we never tell anyone, but He is informed. He is healing us and our spirits without our intention. We have to understand that there is only one stronghold, and the ultimate guide is no other than God. He is the one who can heal us spiritually, take us out of the situation we are terribly surrounded in, and assist us without us having to request it. You don’t have to shout for help; whisper your problems to Him, hand over all your worries, and connect strongly to Allah. He will listen to you whenever you call out; He will never be fed up with wiping your tears. Say every problem to Him, and you will feel light inside- and feel a difference within yourself. Yet Allah’s plan is often different from our expectations.</p><p>After developing a close bond with God, lean back against the chair and wait for Allah’s KUNN (BE) with peace of heart and conviction. Don’t get restless; wait with patience, and get better results, not as per your own thoughts, but according to Allah’s wisdom, which chooses the best way for you. So stay calm till you feel the</p><p>FAYAKUNN. (and it comes into existence)</p><p>“Indeed, Allah does not do injustice to anyone, even in the slightest amount.”</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*094x2sqe3eBKad3yNQl6LA.jpeg" /><figcaption>Omid Armin is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=37f3d2f6a66a" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

Plays terribly with us without any signs or warnings, and we don’t have enough energy to cry, though we want to cry; but we stay composed because we know that no matter how much we scream and shout, we cannot deny the truth. And can’t take the time back when we smiled and played together.</p><p>The pain of separation is beyond words. After so many years, I can’t even know if any words exist to describe the pain and ache that hits me hard inside. After seven years of severe suffering, I haven’t forgotten the painful moment when she looked at me with her lively and sparkling eyes, and there was a beautiful smile on her face that will last forever in my heart and eyes. The smile on her face and the goodbye I felt in her eyes are still keeping me awake at night. I can see her smiling every second of the day.</p><p>She was on a hospital bed for the last 4 days of excruciating pain, which was not fading with any medication. Most of the time, she was unconscious due to heavy painkillers. The painkillers stopped working, and there was no other way than to start anesthesia. Doctors feared that the situation would come, and it did. Now, doctors were losing hope, but they tried their best to save her life. But God didn’t want her in this world anymore. They started giving her anesthesia, and after every dose, she got unconscious for a couple of hours. And the procedure was done repeatedly by doctors to provide some relief from the pain, but I don’t know whether the pain was also reduced or not. Doctors were unable to identify the cause of the pain even after several lab tests. Anesthesia’s dosage was increased, and the period of unconsciousness also increased. And after two days of struggle, doctors declared that she won’t be with us in a few days. My heart missed a beat, my head was buzzing, and I felt as if my breathing was coming to a halt. But I didn’t cry or scream. I heard it very calmly, and the tears started falling from my eyes. And she left us after two days.</p><p>While being ill, she never told us that she was in pain, that her parents should not be worried. We lost her with a smiling face. My brave girl is surely in Heaven, hopefully waiting for us, and we will meet her there one day. I am sure she will come running towards us with a smiling face and arms wide open for a warm hug.</p><p>Sometimes, someone very dear to us goes far away from us, yet comes even closer by living in our hearts. Then they continue to live with every beat of our heart and every breath we take.</p><p>LOVE YOU, MY LOVE GHARAAM</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*KdDT4MxykFFNlRxmoFsHFw.jpeg" /><figcaption>Arifur Rahman is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=5098e839e719" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

In today’s hectic world, everyone is exhausted and agitated by their daily routines, but most people think taking breaks is a waste of time; however, it is not. It is necessary to recharge your energy and be active again for a busier day ahead. You should take small breaks in your office during office hours, take your eyes off the screen(if in front of it), do a stretch, and let go of your tiredness. (plz don’t smile, do it and feel the lightness inside you). Must have a lunch break; your mind has to be distracted for some time in your busy office work. Have your lunch with your colleagues while chit- chatting, and come back to your seat strong and fit. Now you are ready and strong for the upcoming work challenges.</p><h3>Weekend Breaks:</h3><p>Enjoy your weekend breaks, don’t waste them, like a couch potato, chill out with your friends or family members, roaming around all day is a perfect choice to spend your weekend holiday. At the end of the day, you’ll have peace of mind with a tired body, then you will get deep sleep, and the very next day, you will be recharged and motivated for your work challenges with new energy.</p><h3>Yearly Breaks:</h3><h3>Yearly breaks, better to say yearly vacations, are as important as daily or weekend breaks. It is essential to take time off from work and chill out for a week or a 15-day break to be relaxed and get rid of the restless days of daily work challenges.</h3><p>Some people think breaks or vacations are a waste of time and money. Believe me, buddy, spending time with your loved ones is not a waste of time or money. At the end of the day, you enjoyed yourself and were at ease, so you didn’t waste the money and time. Because you don’t know whether this time will ever come back. You have gained precious time with your loved ones, which you might not get <a href="http://again.so/">again.</a></p><p>So be loyal to yourself and the people around you. Don’t turn your life into a working machine. Your physical and mental health must take some rest. Prevent your physical and mental health from draining out due to stress and a busy working schedule.</p><h3>LOVE YOURSELF</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*2RUMxhK5X6_aOHJ_RtoaOw.jpeg" /><figcaption>Annie Spratt is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=53b003a7d186" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some memories knock on our minds every little while and we get lost in the past.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*nO0hX2Xd1X3cLr-4Q4W8fQ.jpeg" /><figcaption>Peter Herrmann is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p>In every person’s life, there are loads of memories but not all are pleasant, some are unhappy and make us upset and sad every time they come to mind.</p><p>I have a memory, and I still can’t decide after so many years whether it is a good one or a bad one. Whenever it comes to my mind, it hurts me, and at the same time, it also makes me proud of myself.</p><p>It is a school-day memory when I was very young, about 8 or 9 years old, in the 3rd standard. One day when I reached school and after attending the morning prayers, a crowd of children was going back to their classrooms in a queue, I was leading my classmates to the classroom passing through the corridor which ended at our classroom, a few steps before the room entrance our Islamic studies teacher Sir Arif was standing, without noticing him I was going straight to my classroom, when I reached closer to him he asked me to stop, I stopped while looking at his face to understand the reason to stop me, he walked toward me, when he came closer to me, suddenly he slapped my face, without any explanation he angrily ordered me to go to the class. With a heavy heart and tears in my eyes, I went to my classroom.</p><p>My friends and classmates ask me-, about the reason for such an insulting slap. How can I explain it to them? I didn’t know the reason either. I was upset about the incident for many days and didn’t even discuss it with my parents.</p><p>Some days after the incident, my school friends and I were in the playground. The school peon came to us and said, Sir Arif is calling you in the office, I got frightened, stood up, and started walking toward the office while, thinking about the unknown matter. Confused, I knocked at the door, and when I entered the room, Sir Arif was sitting on a sofa. He asked me to sit on the chair which was in front of the sofa. I was trying to look normal and brave, but I was afraid of one more slap. After a few seconds, he asked me very politely, I slapped you in front of your friends and classmates, but after so many days had passed, you didn’t ask me the reason. Although I was waiting for you to question me about it, can you now tell me why you did not ask me? I took a moment to think and decided to tell the <a href="http://truth.if/">truth.</a></p><p>“Sir, I always respect my teachers from the core of my heart, and I’m definitely sure there must be a solid reason for a slap, otherwise, how would you slap me?” He looked at me, surprised, and again without any explanation, he put his hand in his pocket, took out some cash, and handed it to me, saying, “It is a reward for you, for the respect in your heart that you showed for your teachers.”</p><p>This is the most valuable and greatest award for me. I have ever received in my life.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*fr35U0gL9rRf3ogepMwd-w.jpeg" /><figcaption>Lina Trochez is on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p>Now, my dear friends, can you decide, whether this is a happy memory or not? Certainly, that slap still hurts me a lot, but the way my teacher appreciated me and rewarded me for my patience. It makes me happy whenever I remember it. So I think this is a memorable moment of mixed emotions in my life. JOY AND SORROWS.</p><p>:</p><p>:</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=d10f5849d159" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was not in touch with my friends of MEDIUM b’ coz of little bit busy in the holy month and thinking to back with more energy and emotions. But when the war started between the three countries. It saddened me a lot and was waiting to over the war and will engage with my hobbies in a relaxed way and with satisfaction of my heart. Writing is my happiness and I am not happy now a days and not in my mind to express my feelings rightly. I can feel the sounds of bombing around me and the smell of burning is frying my brain. The screams and cries of injured children and mothers don’t let me sleep at <a href="http://night.it/">night. It</a> is not a war for the attainment of the country which is taken by someone but it is a war of ego and pride to become superior in the eyes of the world population. But sorry to say no one can be a hero to bomb a nation or country, You did not only bombed the cities or countries but in real you bombed and killed the humanity which can’t be alive again in the hearts of the upgrowing generation which saw their loved ones bleeding and screaming for the lives<a href="http://hearts.it/">. It</a> will be written in the brains of the young people to always bomb for a solution not negotiations. The damages can be repaired but not a single thing can repair the damages of hearts. I hope these countries will think again and be gathered on a table and let life live without the fear of bombardments and <a href="http://bloodshed.it/">bloodshed. It</a> is a tiny touch of my feelings about the state of the world hoping to repair it with peace, gentleness, kind heart and spread the love all around which change the color of skies and oceans of the whole world and every eye sees the same color and no differences remains.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*_JlpQ5YEjlex5dTd10UxNA.jpeg" /><figcaption>Valeriia Neganova on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=36ebd85f871d" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

Despite being alive, the feeling of life is not felt there is only darkness and silence all around, stillness spreads inside. The noise of life is not heard. The colors of life are shadowed by dark clouds. Days and nights keeps passing but there is no feeling of changing.</p><p>It feels as the heart and mind is silently without caring about theses changes are trying to understand the feelings rising inside. But all efforts go in vain and we fail to find the cause which has built a mountain of stillness inside us and taken us away from our colorful life, and our living soul comes close to dying.</p><p>Is the stillness and numbness inside us quietly taking a new birth?If so, will we have the courage to leave our old world and start living with this new soul? Will we awaken the buried feelings and emotions within us, or will we accept ourselves as dead from the inside?</p><p>And life goes on just as it is?</p><p>I am not a writer but I try to express my feelings, which I have experienced at different moments. I hope you will clap and encourage me</p><p>Translated with the help of AI.</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=1214a20665c2" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>
