Hollywood has painted a picture showing North America as a land of unrealistic paradise, of law and order, where gardens bloom, streets are clean, and justice is fair. It’s a land where no one is in debt, everyone can make ends meet, and hard work leads to success. However, this image often does not reflect reality, particularly for those not […]
Recent developments in deportation practices have left many feeling disturbed and powerless. The increased deportation actions, particularly targeting undocumented migrants, have raised concerns about the dehumanization of individuals who are often treated like criminals despite not being. These practices, involving handcuffing and chaining, strip people of their dignity, sparking widespread outrage. One of the most troubling aspects is the irony […]
BOYCOTT companies that don’t create value or produce food. BOYCOTT those who overlook harmful situations to maintain the status quo. BOYCOTT those that kiss the ring of power to avoid paying their fair share of taxes, and treat employees poorly while flaunting their outrageous wealth. It’s crucial to BOYCOTT these entities and hold them accountable. A fair and thriving society […]
The planet of Aturial is scared of the soon-to-be new world leadership. Aturial’s Democratic countries are horrified that Usial, the most powerful of the democratic countries, is changing so drastically in behavior.

The new leader also announces coming concentration camps, defames […]
Democracy was created by the Greeks as a form of government of the people, for the people, and by the people. At its core, democracy entails the creation of three branches of government to keep each other in check, and it champions free speech, which should not be confused with lies and defamation. As defined by Britannica, “Democracy is a […]
The planet Aturial seems to be stumbling through chaotic times as if shaken by relentless earthquakes. The inhabitants are gripped by fear, uncertain of what the future holds with the impending inauguration of the new leader of the democracies.

For a country to be a real democracy, the politicians need to understand the basic principle of democracy, which is government of the people, by the people, for the people. True democracy requires transparency, accountability, and equal opportunity for all citizens.

Finding happiness in the ordinary can transform our lives and enhance our well-being. One of the most rewarding experiences is nurturing nature. Watching a plant you’ve cared for […]
In the not-so-distant past, the concept of globalization held the promise of a harmonious world, where trade would act as a magic potion, uniting people across borders, ethnicities, and religions. The belief was that economic interdependence could be the key to averting disputes, wars, and discrimination. As the globalized world unfolded, it seemed that nations had finally achieved a state […]
In these troubled times, we feel it’s important to revisit this post. The original can be read here, but the images in this video version are more impactful.
In the middle of a pandemic emotions and reflections seem to be more intense than in other times. We develop questions in our mind about ourselves like what we really are, what is the role of our existence, no matter where you live in any continent!
Staying isolated, watching the pain of the ones who lost their loved ones, feeling small and helpless we devoted our time analyzing what is going on around the Globe.
During a lockdown, we wake up to the fact that we all belong to a whole, to the same planet and we find that anybody in any continent can observe and voice opinions about the latest events such as the Virus, Climate Changing, Global Warming and so goes on!
We are surrounded by uncertainties, fears, and doubts. What is Global Warming, is it a reaction of the Planet against the pollution of the seas, against the devastation of forests, against the growing use of natural resources?
We are in dark mode, looking around us, becoming more curious, waiting for answers that may not come, but yet all of us live on the same planet.
We are part of the problem because we make part of this as a whole and have the obligation to be responsible and responsive to what is affecting the Globe and work with the possible means in our hands to make it better.
So, it was in the middle of that, which was maybe the most difficult time in our lives, the center of the biggest sanitary crisis that we decided to voice our thoughts through a journal. This journal is a loner, it has no political ties or ideology, no pretension to be something bigger than it is, it is just the expression of something that has been looked at, but never seen from what is happening on our planet these days!
