  One of the most important virtue to uphold in life is humility. It's easy to become swept up in success, to take pride in achievements, and even mock or look down at those who may be struggling or facing setbacks. However, as the saying goes, “what goes up always comes down”, and the very things we laugh at today may become our reality tomorrow. Life has a way of reminding us that no one is immune to failure or hardship. By remaining humble, we are not only protecting ourselves from the pitfall of arrogance, we are also ensure that we maintain the empathy and resilience needed to weather the unexpected twists and turns life throws at us. People who become overly confident or critical of others often forget that their present circumstances are not guaranteed to last forever.

I’ve seen many individuals who, in their ...

The Internet Has No Emotions: Be Careful What You Share

However, we must always remember that the internet is not a neutral space—it lacks emotions, empathy, and understanding.
