My Life Records — the proof that I am still alive.

“And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected.” – John Steinbeck, East of Eden
Growing up in a place where people are prosecuted for holding the “wrong” opinions, I learned early how fragile freedom of expression really is. It is not an abstract value but a daily condition of spiritual survival.
Most of our thoughts never reach language. They remain unconscious, unfinished, unpolished. Society, however, expects people to speak as if they already possess god-like clarity and moral perfection. Anything less is treated as guilt. Words spoken in confusion, anger, doubt, or fear are no longer seen as part of being human — they are treated as evidence of character.
Across the globe, freedom of expression is shrinking. Even in places that call themselves Western democracies, speech is increasingly regulated not by harm, but by offense. In the UK and across the European Union, there have been repeated cases of people being investigated or arrested for speech that caused emotional discomfort to certain groups.
In September 2025, a British man was arrested in the middle of the night over a social media post on X that criticized Hamas and Islam. Police cited the “spreading of racial hatred.” Regardless of whether one agrees with his views, this should disturb everyone. The right to criticize — even to be wrong — is fundamental. When thoughts itself becomes criminal, freedom has already collapsed.
The First Amendment in the United States explicitly protects freedom of expression, and yet even here, speech is increasingly constrained by social punishment, platform moderation, and algorithmic enforcement. Legal protection alone is no longer enough when the cost of speaking is public erasure.
I believe people need a place where thoughts are allowed to exist before they are judged — if they are judged at all. A place where you can speak to yourself, or to others, without being forced into performance. A place where anonymity is not suspicion, but protection. Where listening matters more than reacting.
This belief is the ethic behind Language of Thoughts (LOT).
LOT is never about being “right”.
It is about being honest.
Welcome.

“Reason is, and ought only to be, the slave of the passions.” – David Hume
Kant’s belief that morality emerges from universal rational self-management fundamentally misunderstands human psychology. We are not rational agents who occasionally succumb to emotion — we are emotional creatures who sometimes employ reason as a tool.
Consider the basic mechanics: our decisions originate in limbic responses–dopamine seeking, threat detection, and social bonding. As David Hume stated, “Reason is a slave to the passions.” The prefrontal cortex doesn’t override these systems; it rationalizes their outputs after the fact. When someone claims they chose honesty because it’s categorically right, they’re constructing a post-hoc narrative around an emotional impulse toward social cooperation.
This reveals morality’s actual function. It’s not a universal law discovered through reason — it’s a boundary system we create because emotional creatures living together need predictable rules to feel safe. Different societies develop different moral frameworks, not because some are more rational than others, but because they’re solving different collective survival problems.
My teacher complains that “kids nowadays have too much freedom”, which I have to deny. The issue isn’t excessive freedom—it’s unclear boundaries. When we don’t establish consistent expectations, we create anxiety, not liberation. People need to know where the fences are before they can navigate freely within them.
Kant’s “autonomy” from auto (self) + nomos (law) means operating by your own rational principles rather than external authority. But this assumes we can transcend our biological programming through pure will. We cannot simply choose not to “obey” dopamine any more than we can choose not to feel hungry.
Autonomy, if it exists, is not an innate rational capacity but a learned constraint layered precariously over evolutionary drives. Real freedom isn’t Kantian self-rule, but it’s skillful navigation within psychological reality. We don’t overcome our nature; we work with it intelligently, creating boundaries that channel rather than suppress our emotional drives toward collective flourishing.

“There are no moral phenomena at all, but only a moral interpretation of phenomena.” — Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
It’s easy to hate someone. It’s way harder to actually like them. Literally.
I remember when I was a kid, I hated math — stupid numbers, endless homework, all of it. I told my dad about it once. He didn’t yell or punish me. Instead, he took my iPad and placed it on top of the piano. Then he said, “If you hate math, you shouldn’t enjoy its product either.” He didn’t do it to be cruel — he wanted me to understand something: I could only enjoy those electronic devices if I appreciated what made them possible — math. It took me an entire month before I could touch my iPad again.
It takes a month to start loving something. Maybe even someone.
But that’s not exactly my point. What I’m trying to say is this — whatever it is you’re looking at, a subject or a person, you can learn to love it once you understand it more deeply.
The problem is, most of us live in a kind of natural defense mode. We’re wired to suspect first, to dislike before we even try to understand. Hating feels “safer” than loving. But it’s not. Hate burns through your energy like fire in a dry forest — it leaves you empty. Worse, people can sense when you don’t like them. That invisible wall you build doesn’t protect you; it just creates enemies that never needed to exist.
Carl Rogers once said that when people feel accepted, they naturally open up and grow. But when they feel judged, they close off. Maybe that’s why it’s so hard to love someone — because real love forces you to lower your defenses first.
And no, I’m not telling you to love everyone unconditionally like a good old Christian. This is also a strategy. If you want people to like you, you have to start by liking them first. Back in the 1930s, a researcher named Jacob Moreno asked students to write down the names of classmates they liked or wanted to work with. Later studies followed, and they all found the same thing: the most well-liked students weren’t the loudest, the smartest, or the best-looking. They were simply the ones who liked more people themselves. They saw the good in others — and in return, others saw the good in them.
Maybe that’s the real formula for being loved — not trying to impress everyone, but learning to genuinely appreciate them. People can always feel the difference. Judgment repels. Warmth attracts. And once you start seeing the good in others, somehow, they start seeing the good in you too.
One more thing that might help you learn to like others: stop worrying so much about your own morality, and stop judging others by it — not because judging is inherently bad, but because we’re all following our own version of what’s right. As Nietzsche wrote in Beyond Good and Evil, your morality isn’t some eternal law carved in stone, but a perspective — something shaped by your experiences and struggles. Basically, what’s “good” for you might not be “good” for someone else, and that’s okay. We’re all living by different compasses, shaped by different storms.
There’s a saying in political science: where you stand depends on where you sit. I remember a girl once told me she “hated” a guy because he gave another girl his jacket on a cold day, even though he already had a girlfriend. To him, it was just a simple act of kindness, a gesture of good faith. But to her, it looked like betrayal, maybe even a threat. Neither of them was completely wrong; they were just seeing the world through different values. Before we judge either side, we should try wearing their shoes for a while. The girl might have had her own insecurities, and the guy might have just wanted to do one good thing that day. When you start seeing things that way, it becomes easier to understand — and understanding is always the first step toward love.
You get what I’m saying. Once you start seeing that, it becomes a lot easier to like people, even when you don’t agree with them.

I know one thing about myself: whatever the length of my life — whether long or as short as I expect — it is meant to serve God. That is my only real purpose for being alive. To serve God is not to kneel every day, but to carry light into a dark world, to act with compassion even when no one is watching.
The most horrible thing that can happen to us is not life’s challenges. It is not losing money, loved ones, reputation, or even life itself. The worst thing that can happen is forgetting who we are.
Not so long ago, I walked under a dark sky on nearly empty streets. I held the cross I wear around my neck and asked God: Where is the way? The pain of life was heavy inside my chest. We follow the rules, we try our best, we work to make things happen — and life does not always return what we believe we deserve. The moonlight was innocent, bright above me, yet the road ahead stayed dark.
I looked into a mirror and saw a face. A beautiful face. It looked back at me. Who are you? I asked him. He did not answer.
For so long, we ask others: Who am I? We receive different answers, play different roles for different people. But in chasing validation, trying to present the best version of ourselves to impress a him or a her, we forget one thing — the most important thing — ourselves.
As I said, the worst thing isn’t to die. It is to never live.
God did not tell me where the way was. I couldn’t see anything around me. But I kept walking. I knew that if I fell, I would get up. If I stepped in filth, I would clean my shoes. Nothing could stop me from moving forward. I still believe one fact: that I will eventually find my home — even if it’s in the opposite direction.
Maybe this doesn’t answer the question of who you are. But the truth is never about what I tell you; it is about what you believe you are.
I remember one Christmas special episode of The Simpsons. Homer, always terrible at giving Christmas gifts, is accidentally hypnotized on a TV show into believing he is Santa Claus. When he believed it, he started acting like Santa — delivering gifts, becoming the star of the town. Even after the hypnotism was gone, he kept doing Santa’s work and giving joy to others.
The miracle wasn’t about what others told him. It was about what he believed. That belief is what took him onto the path — whatever that path was, it became the right path.
So the most horrible thing is not to sacrifice time, money, or anything else. The most horrible thing is to live without faith — without truly becoming who you are.

Happy October first of all!
A close friend of mine got rejected by a girl.
Not in the normal way, but in a way mixed with insult and shame. Instead of just giving a polite “no,” she used harsh words with an aggressive tone. Even worse, she went on to make fun of him with her friends afterward.
Yes, we could call this immature behavior on her part. But beyond pointing fingers, what lesson can we take from it?
In our teenage years, we all begin to care more about how others see us, how others think of us. We start placing our validation outside ourselves — in people and things we can’t control. Psychologists call this the “contingency of self-worth.” We tie our self-esteem to domains like approval, achievement, or appearance. That’s why rejection feels so devastating. It’s not just about losing someone; it’s the blow to self-worth, that deep feeling of inferiority that can crush you. This is inevitable, which I can tell you, but there are two ways to fix this as far as I am able to experience. One is to rebuild your self-esteem immediately — and that takes practice. The other is to shift your focus to something else. But both come down to the same core truth: you must stop placing your validation in the hands of others.
Depending on outside validation is dangerous, especially when it comes from other people — the most arbitrary thing God ever created. Don’t rely too much on how others see you, because most of the time, they see what benefits them, not what’s true about you.
And here’s the bigger danger: if someone else can control your feelings, they can manipulate you. At that point, you’re no longer free. You’re a slave. Slavery may have been abolished in this nation in 1865 with the 13th Amendment, but the invisible chains we put on ourselves—the ones that tie our worth to others’ opinions—are still very real.
I know a person — someone special to me. The first time we met, I told her I wanted to major in math, but admitted I didn’t really have the talent to be a mathematician. She looked at me and simply asked: “So what?” That question engraved itself in my mind — unconsciously, unintentionally — and somehow made her unforgettable to me. It cut through my excuses; her words reminded me that talent isn’t everything. Sartre calls this the essence of freedom — we are “condemned to be free,” forced to define ourselves beyond the gazes of others. True freedom isn’t in being called gifted, or even in proving them wrong. It’s in realizing that no label — not rejection, not approval — can define you unless you let it.

“Where there is no guidance, a people falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.” — Proverbs 11:14
This verse from the Bible reminds me of something ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius also said: “When I walk along with two others, they may serve me as my teachers.” 「三人行必有我師焉。」Both point to the same truth — ideas don’t grow in isolation. They need to be questioned, tested, and shaped through challenge.
My father once taught me to test any idea by asking myself three questions:
1. Is this idea something others can easily challenge?
2. When it is challenged, do I immediately fall into confusion?
3. After that confusion, do I discover obvious flaws in my own thinking?
If the answer is “yes” to all three, then the idea is still immature. By immature, I don’t mean worthless — but incomplete, underdeveloped, or simply uncorrected.
Dr. Carol Dweck, in her book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, distinguishes between a “growth mindset” and a “fixed mindset.” The terms are self-explanatory: one embraces change and failure as learning, while the other clings to static intelligence. She encourages us to choose growth, and I see how that connects with my father’s lesson. We need to challenge ourselves, brutally if necessary. Growth hurts. But pain is the mark of growth. As Socrates said, “I am not a producer of knowledge, I am the midwife.” He didn’t hand people answers — he pressed them with questions until their assumptions cracked. It made people angry. It also got him killed.
Psychology explains why challenge feels so threatening. Freud argued that the ego exists to shield us from pain. Carl Rogers agreed, describing our deep need for approval and self-worth. Evolution backs this up: in early human societies, rejection could mean exile, and exile could mean death. So our brains evolved to treat criticism like danger. The amygdala fires up, fear takes over, and the ego defends by denying or deflecting. What once helped us survive now often prevents us from growing.
That’s why we hate criticism. But that’s also why we need it. And not just to accept criticism — but to give it. Just because something is in a book doesn’t make it correct. Take the very book I mentioned: Dweck’s concept of the fixed mindset. She frames it as negative, something to overcome. But is it really so useless?
Think about it. A growth mindset pushes us to keep striving. But sometimes, a fixed mindset can actually be practical. It can save energy, protect focus, and redirect effort toward what really matters. Saying, “This just isn’t for me — and that’s okay” is fine. Its efficiency is great. A while ago, I shared with you the story of Jeff Bezos, who was able to succeed not because he stuck with Physics, but because he chose to give up on the subject he was not good at. A growth mindset tells you to embrace challenges, but in relationships, for example, it might be wiser to stop chasing someone who doesn’t respect you. That isn’t “giving up” — it’s recognizing your time and energy are valuable.
The real trap is forgetting balance. If you blindly worship the growth mindset while dismissing the value of the fixed mindset, you’re just falling into the trap of the fixed mindset. Rationality means knowing when to persist and when to let go. Like my friend Jeff Bezos, he indeed gave up on Physics, but no one can say he never tried hard. Starting Amazon is even harder than sticking with science, because you’re not just taking more risks, but also exploring a field that no one has ever explored.
So here’s today’s truth: use both. Grow when it’s worth it. Quit when it’s rational. Don’t let your ego trick you into wasting energy.
Keep tuned! Tomorrow I’ll share more.

Dehumanization.
What do you think when you see that word?
Well, it’s not just a concept from history books or dystopian novels — it’s happening to us right now. Slowly, quietly, but undeniably, we are dehumanizing each other.
Franz Kafka’s wonderful novel Metamorphosis emphasized a family where the son, Gregor Samsa, wakes up one day as a giant insect. And instead of asking why or how, his family slowly stops seeing him as a person. He becomes a burden. A problem. An embarrassment.
He’s no longer a son. He’s a thing.
They only saw him as their son when he was useful — when he worked hard, made money, and paid the bills, covering the massive expenses his family made with his bare hands. But once he couldn’t serve that function, they didn’t see a person anymore. The tragedy wasn’t just his physical transformation — it was the way people around him lost the ability to see him as human.
And that same process happens to us today.
I recently heard someone say they were “happy” about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist, simply because they disagreed with his opinions. I don’t care where you stand politically; I don’t find that kind of reaction something to celebrate. Because it reveals something deeply broken in us, something that I am too scared to see.
We’re so quick to reduce people to labels:
You’re MAGA.
You’re a Republican.
You’re a Democrat.
You’re gay.
You’re Christian.
You’re a climate activist.
You’re a conspiracy theorist.
Be careful when you do that. Because once we slap a label on someone, we stop seeing the individual. We stop listening. We stop imagining that they feel pain, fear, confusion, hope — just like we do. And worst of all, we stop caring. This is dehumanization. It kills empathy, it kills thoughts, it kills love, it kills rationale. It divides families, friends, and nations.
We think it’s “us vs. them.” But we forget — we’re all them to someone else.

The new Meta AR glasses look amazing. I have a Meta Quest 3 — it used to feel amazing. You could watch a movie at home and feel like you were in a full-size theater, with a massive floating screen right in front of you. Technology excites me. I’m really looking forward to the future of tech — this stuff genuinely makes me hopeful.
But here’s something interesting: sometimes, you don’t even need a product, just a concept. How do we make sense of that? Just look at IPO filings each month — a lot of these companies aren’t selling real products yet. They’re selling an idea. And some of those ideas are being valued at hundreds of millions, even billions of dollars.
“You can never make money beyond your cognition” — that’s what they say. Brutal truth is, this is exactly how the economy works. Because sometimes, it’s not about ability — it’s about vision. A daring dreamer might just win the world.
18th September 2025
You know, sometimes it’s really hard to push myself to write something interesting in this public log. You have to write something so engaging that even you would want to read it. And I know you — you don’t read. Some studies say only about 16% of Americans read for leisure. That’s depressing.
When I share my log with others, even some of my closest friends have said, “Urm… not that interested.” And I get it. But it still makes me wonder — have people really lost their curiosity about the world? Or are my writings just that boring? Either one is worth reflecting on, especially the second. Aristotle once said, “All men desire to know.” Please, don’t exclude some parts of this population from that statement.
Some people love to interpret Stoicism as “don’t care what others are doing — just focus on yourself.” But let me tell you why that’s not really possible. You can’t just focus on yourself and not care about what others think. “Man is by nature a political animal,” according to Aristotle. We are, by design, social creatures. City-state animals. It’s impossible to exist in a vacuum. People care about you — a lot of us do. I’m curious. I want to learn everything you’re willing to tell me. But there’s a limit. I have to prioritize sleep. Eight hours, at least.
On the second day of school, I told one of my close friends, “We don’t have time to learn what’s truly meaningful anymore.” We’re drowning in meaningless routines — standardized exams, repetitive drills — all just to make it easier for colleges to label who we are. Education has shifted from educating people to classifying individuals. I’m not saying this out of laziness. I’m saying it because I’m tired — tired of a system that’s slowly killing our curiosity, the one thing that should be sacred. The desire to keep learning for the sake of it — not because someone’s grading you.
This morning, I asked a friend on the walk to school if he likes math. He said no, and also, “The teacher sucks.” If you’re a teacher reading this log, whether you’ve treated me kindly or not, just know, I love you :)). I asked him, “Would you stop liking girls just because you had a crazy ex?” Well, I know I still love girls. He said, “Yeah, but that’s how a lot of people are.” And he’s right — people do stop liking a subject just because of one bad teacher. I wish more teachers realized what they’re holding in their hands. It’s not just a job — it’s the future of humanity.
I wish homework helped me. Weirdly, my grades tend to rise when I stop focusing on it. I’m not sure how correlated that is yet, but it’s something I need to look into.
A girl I used to like once told me her parents wouldn’t let her pursue psychology — because it’s “not stable” or “profitable.” I get that parents just want their kids to have a secure life. I do. But is that the right way to define the value of a career?
People need to acknowledge that forcing someone to study what they don’t love is slowly killing their curiosity. And if you understand how important curiosity is — how it keeps you learning, thinking, alive — then you’ll realize: that’s not a small sacrifice. That’s everything.
17th September 2025
Just sharing a fun story I heard: Mr. Jeff Bezos, the Founder and Executive Chair of Amazon, once mentioned that when he was studying physics, he struggled with a differential equation problem for hours with his friends. Then he asked the smartest kid in school—and received an unexpected reaction: bro solved it in just a few minutes.
Jeff Bezos soon realized that he would never become a great theoretical physicist.
That story clicked with me a lot. I wanted to be a mathematician. René Descartes is one of my heroes. I wanted to be a great mathematician and philosopher who contributes something significant to the field. But the reality is—I’m not gifted. Not at all.
Search up every mathematician or physicist you know—almost every one of them was considered gifted since childhood, like learning calculus and linear algebra at age 10 (Feynman), while I was literally struggling with stuttering and being bullied in school.
Unfortunate news is that most scientists who contributed a lot to certain fields are the ones being chosen — gifted, talented, and hard-working people. Now, a lot of people might find this offensive, but I often see myself as ignorant, idiotic, and mentally slow. Regarding math skills, God has not yet gifted me anything. I struggle in math more often than I’d like to admit. That’s pathetic.
But some people might argue that I do sound smart sometimes. Curiosity is what drives the mind. It’s never really about what your teacher teaches you—it’s about how you ask your teacher.
Lemme share a story: when I was 14, I fell in love with a girl — my first love. She felt like an angel in my life. Back in those good old days, I used to dream about her sometimes. But it wasn’t really about the girl. It was about love. Plato believed that love is the soul’s desire for the eternal and the divine, something we first experience through beauty. Over time, I found myself dreaming not just about people, but about ideas, gorgeous ideas — the Taylor series, the stock market(Graham’s cigar butt), and more recently, even F = ma all over my mind. Love is more important than talent, because love gives life meaning in a way that talent alone never could.
As they say: do what you love, not just what you’re good at.

“Man is not a rational animal, he is a rationalizing animal.” — Robert A. Heinlein
Do you know why you’re in pain? Because of Xenu, a cosmic dictator who controlled hundreds of billions of people across the universe. He slaughtered them, scattered their souls, and left us with what they call “the original trauma.”
That is the Scientology explanation of the original trauma of human beings.
…Yeah, that’s the actual explanation.
People don’t turn to religion just because we can’t explain lightning or gravity. They turn to it because we’re emotionally fragile. We need support. We need something — or someone — to lean on.
Even people who say they’re atheists or agnostics? They still chase meaning. They still admire someone. They still need that emotional anchor. Our bodies and brains weren’t designed for the high-pressure, high-demand societal structure we’ve invented over the past few hundred years. We evolved for survival, not spreadsheets. For tribes, not timelines. And yet here we are — expected to be rational, efficient, and emotionally bulletproof, all the time.
That’s why Trump, at one point, almost became a religion. People hung his photo on their walls. His voice made a lot of people feel like everything was going to be okay, and you can trust him to make America great again. It wasn’t just about policy. It was about comfort. Same with Obama. His speeches — calm, commanding, pastoral — gave people something to believe in, especially after the 2008 recession. Not just ideas. Him. His tone. His presence.
So people seek that kind of support because, in the end, we’re all looking for something to hold onto. The question you should ask yourself is: what do we really believe in? And what should we believe in? When we say we put our faith in facts, do we truly mean it? Or are we just comforting ourselves with the belief that we are rational — when, perhaps, we’re not?

“What is rational is actual, and what is actual is rational.” — Hegel
This public blog kind of forces me to write and think every day. Today, I want to talk about Sustainable Initiatives. You can just Google it — it’s the high school nonprofit I’m running right now.
We’ve done some fantastic work: connected with nearly a hundred restaurants across San Diego County, reduced food waste, and promoted awareness around Senate Bill 1383. It felt great — real impact, real movement.
But lately, we’ve hit a loop. Things aren’t moving as fast. A lot of people graduated, and we’re left with less experience, less energy, and not enough resources to do what we were doing before.
As the leader, I’m realizing that the problem isn’t just logistics. It’s that we’ve been trying to push into new territory — harder projects, more complex goals. But harder doesn’t always mean better. Just because something is more complicated doesn’t mean it creates more value.
So here’s the new direction: we’re going to start making simple, visible impact again. We’re planning to create social media ads that promote restaurants and businesses with composting programs. Highlight what’s already working. Make it cool. Make it seen.

Jeez. Why is my screen time so high? 13 hours a day — on average. At least most of it goes to “Productivity and Finance.” The rest? “Social.” I accidentally spend way too much time on Instagram, but realistically, I use 𝕏 the most.
I’m not here to waste a single minute ranting about how social media kills your brain. Everyone’s heard that. The truth is — most of us have nothing better to do. Staring at a screen isn’t the sickness, it’s the symptom. So no, the question isn’t why you’re on your screen — you probably should be. If not, you might as well be a Luddite.
The real question is: what are you doing on it? Are you thinking? Learning? Creating? Or just endlessly scrolling? Watching pornography?
My history teacher once said that the ultimate authoritarian dream is to give every citizen an Apple Vision Pro and lock them in a box — no questions, no thoughts, just immersive distraction. Sweet dreams, dictators.
Now, I say that as someone who loves tech. I use VR. And the Vision Pro? Probably the most impressive piece of hardware I’ve ever touched. But the issue isn’t the headset. It’s the mindset.
When you stop thinking — that’s when the real problem begins.
13th September 2025
Studying AP Physics and Calculus taught me an important life philosophy:
You can’t love someone solely based on how she treats you — love should come from recognizing who they truly are at their core. Just like I shouldn’t only enjoy Calculus or Physics when I score well on a test, I should appreciate them for what they are in essence, and what they represent to us as humans.
True love, like true passion, isn’t conditional. It’s rooted in understanding, not just in reward.

A Turkish guy(not me) in Florida goes to the hospital. He tells the doctor, “Doc, I don’t know what’s wrong. Everywhere I touch hurts! If I touch my head, it hurts. If I touch my chest, it hurts. If I touch my leg, it hurts.”
The doctor runs a full check-up: X-ray, ECG, everything. Finally, the doctor says, “My friend, nothing is wrong with your body… It’s just your finger that’s broken.”

If you ever want to make a great speech, follow this:
1. Practice, know what you want to speak. Especially the grammar and words. Know how to pronounce.
2. Be confident. Dress nicely. Stand still.
3. Use hands. You can walk around, just not too fast. Slow is cool.
4. Keep eye contact with everyone. You can just do it randomly, but not too fast.
5. Be confident. Be confident. If you don’t know how to, this works: imagine Donald Trump and Elon Musk are walking with you.
6. Imagine yourself as the winner.

School has changed a little bit these days. Phones are not allowed in school — signed by Governor Newsom. No AI in the classroom — said the district.
The great state of California is, or at least has been known for, the centre of innovation. And now the product of innovation has been prohibited in the public education institutions, the institution that is supposed to support the state’s benefits.
As I mentioned in the article I wrote a week ago, there was nothing to stop the trend of AI, and the education system should possibly adopt that.

The invasion of Ukraine wasn’t just about land — it was about fear. Russia feared the West, feared irrelevance, and acted out of both dominance and desperation.
If you take a step back, you’ll see this isn’t just about Ukraine or Russia. It’s about power — who has it, who gave it up, and what happens when they do. Ukraine once had nuclear weapons. It gave them up. Now it’s paying the price.
That’s why we should never take self-defense for granted. The Second Amendment isn’t just about guns — it’s about keeping the power to protect yourself when the systems around you start to fail.
Empires rise not because they’re right, but because they can. And the second you trust the world to stay fair without backup? That’s when you lose.
Never forget that.

The Lyft Driver
Took a Lyft in Boston today. The driver was a 56-year-old Black guy, soft-spoken but unfiltered. Said he had five kids — only one was biological. The rest were stepkids from different marriages. Three marriages total.
His first wife, he told me, was a cocaine addict. They divorced in ’98. She died in 2012. Still, he called her the love of his life. That part hit me. Imagine calling someone your greatest love after everything — addiction, divorce, death. He didn’t say it with regret. More like acceptance.
He said, “When you really love someone, you’ll do whatever.”
Then, unprompted, he drops: “When you lick, put a plastic bag in between. Sandwich bag works.” He was dead serious. Talking about oral sex like he’s giving me a grocery list. I didn’t know whether to laugh or take notes. Man’s definitely done some things.
The Chess Kid
Met this guy at a chess table near Harvard Square. Name’s Derek. Just graduated from high school. Heading to Harvard.
He sat down, glanced at the board, and beat me like it was nothing. No deep concentration. No dramatic thinking. Just clean, fast, efficient moves like his brain was already five steps ahead the moment I blinked.
I kept losing. Over and over. It wasn’t even close. He barely celebrated. Just reset the board like it was all routine. Meanwhile, I’m sitting there wondering what the hell just happened.
But here’s the thing: he didn’t gloat. That’s what made it worse in a way. He was just good. Some people don’t need to prove anything. They just show up and let the game speak.
I felt a little dumb walking away, but also… fine with it. Everyone’s got something they’re good at. For him, it’s chess. For me? Still figuring that out. But today, I was just a spectator to someone else’s stage. And maybe that’s okay.
The Guy with the Rolled Cigarette
He pulled out paper and started rolling what I thought was weed, right there in front of me, and this Persian kid named ****.
Turns out it was just tobacco. He said cigarettes are cheaper when you roll them yourself. Thanks for the finance tip, i guess.
Then he went on this wild monologue — “Don’t smoke weed, it kills motivation. Don’t do coke, it’s too good for you. Go to a spa, pay a hundred bucks, and get a *. Way cleaner, way safer.”
That was his life advice. Dead serious. Like this was ancient wisdom passed down through the generations. **** and I just stood there nodding like we were in a TED Talk.
It’s strange — people like him, they talk like the world already ended, and they’re just surviving the after-party. Messed up logic, but you kind of get what they’re trying to say. Sort of.
Not sure what I learned from him. Probably nothing. But I won’t forget him.
Another Lyft Driver
This one was young — probably 26. Talkative, a little restless. Said he went to Ohio State University.
“Ohio’s boring,” he told me. “There’s literally nothing there.”
I shrugged and told him I think life’s more about mindset than geography. Like, sure, some places are slow — but what you see depends on how you look at it.
He looked at me through the rearview and said, “That’s a really mature thing to say for an 18-year-old.”
I didn’t correct him. I’m not even 18.

I think a leader is responsible for seeing things and thinking about things in a different way. Therefore, a leader must be able to communicate and stay calm most of the time, be caring, and be able to participate in important issues. Most importantly, the leader needs to have the ability to inspire their followers.

Imagine you could ensure your future child has an IQ of 180, like Einstein — no cancer, no chronic disease. You could even reduce traits like aggression, hypersexuality, or impulsivity, making them more suited to fit into a social contract. That sounds ideal. But the ethical dilemma is clear: is it humane to decide what a person will be before they’re even born? It reminds me of Brave New World, where people are manufactured for roles. But here’s the hypocrisy — society already forces people to fit in. It labels you the second you’re born: you’re this, you’re that, and you better not be something else. So how can that same society argue it’s unethical to use genetic modification to make someone “normal” or “excellent”? When social structures themselves reward sameness and punish deviation, is genetic engineering really the crime — or is it just a more honest version of what’s already happening?
The first principle Elon Musk used to overcome his fear of darkness was that darkness is simply the absence of light, and when he realized this, he stopped being scared of it. Like when you know what people are thinking, and you realize that they are just the same as you, you stop being scared of them. And you can feel safer and secure when you know what things you see are really what they are. I think it is a good way for a cognitive approach.
