The Journey to Self-Love. Top Story - March 2024.
“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell are you going to love someone else?” The famous quote from the Queen themself: RuPaul.

My First PRIDE Parade
(This piece is for the unofficial challenge in Queer Vocal Voices. The prompt is "What Does Pride Mean To You".) I didn’t know what to expect at the first PRIDE parade I went to. The gay community where I live is…challenging for a lack of a better term. (I will save that story for another time.) Being just out of the closet, I had no idea what the point of the parade was. Until I did some research into why we have pride parades. That is when I learned of the Stonewall riots, and the first parade the year following the riots.

Pride's Heir
In the vast expanse of the African savanna, where the golden rays of the sun kissed the earth each dawn, there stood a kingdom ruled by majestic lions. At the heart of this kingdom lay the pride lands, where the Lion King ruled over all creatures, large and small. The current monarch, King Mufasa, was a noble and just ruler, respected by all who dwelled within his domain.

Inquisitiveness To Know about History Of Houses
Nowadays people are more inquisitive to learn about history of houses, buildings and infrastructure of a city or area where they live in, and most of them have spent half of their lives there. For not being a chronicler its baseless to give my opinion but being an urban person if I spend time in that particular area for a longer duration the thing which I need most is taking care of that house or an apartment in that building For Example : If house is made from woods then save it from termites and other external environmental factors like rain and use of Copper Azole woods rather than reconstruct that house which have its own historical value

Jack's dilemma
In 1945, a scientist embarked on a journey to the Trinity Site, a desolate desert in New Mexico. The scientist was no ordinary academic. He had created a secret city in the sky, where over 6,000 people worked on a military scientific project. Just days before the Trinity Site visit, he had received essential plutonium for his bomb, a testament to the labor of countless unwitting workers across the US. As he lay on the canyon floor, waiting for detonation, he realized the weight of his nation, the lives of millions, and the fate of the world rested in his hands.

A Queer Rebirth Has Come to Vocal. Top Story - January 2024.
The past few months have really been about rebirth for me. There have been many firsts which hasn’t been easy, and it has been more than I would have expected for someone in their late twenties. But along with these first, I’ve been rediscovering and reclaiming my identity. And along with that, I’ve also been given opportunities to advocate and empower others. From my job as a teacher, to my own inner child work, there have been so many grateful opportunities for queer voices and stories to emerge.
