Posted on October 29, 2023October 29, 2023 by Tawsif Anam

It is my understanding that human beings do not tend to speak about their suffering. However, that is changing, as it should. We must be vocal, so we do not suffer alone. There is pain and suffering all around us. Economic uncertainty, toxic environment, growing social unrest, and global turmoil—all of these affect us. As…

THE PAIN OF ENVY

Posted on July 22, 2023July 22, 2023 by Tawsif Anam

To have the seeds of envy in one’s heart is the greatest of all curses. To be envious of someone else is to rebel against the will of God. Envy only leads to pain. Humans are not perfect, but it is perfection that we must seek. We are in this world with a purpose. We…

LIFE, WORDS, AND TRUTH

Posted on June 25, 2023June 25, 2023 by Tawsif Anam

Some people write words on crisp, clean pages–forming a journal.

I never…

DISSATISFACTION AND GRATITUDE

Posted on April 16, 2023April 16, 2023 by Tawsif Anam

A feeling of dissatisfaction, combined with a deep sense of gratitude, is a gift that serves a person well. Without a lack of satisfaction, determination is impossible. Without a sense of gratitude, achievement would be beyond one’s reach. No matter who we are and what our background may be, we always lack something that we…

HUMANS – MEN AND WOMEN – ARE NOT ROACHES

Posted on November 5, 2022November 5, 2022 by Tawsif Anam

A human being is not a cockroach. To say that human beings are roaches is highly offensive. Sunny Hostin, a host on the television show The View, recently compared “white Republican suburban women” to “roaches.” Her comment is an insult to women. Sunny Hostin said that “white Republican suburban women” voting for GOP candidates is…

CALIFORNIA’S WAR AGAINST GAS CARS

Posted on August 26, 2022October 23, 2022 by Tawsif Anam

Never in my life did I think that the government, here in a major American state, would try to dictate people about what kind of vehicle should be used for transportation. But here we are.

PREVENT THE EROSION OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP

Posted on July 16, 2022 by Tawsif Anam

The power of American citizenship depends on the right to vote. If the right to vote is extended to non-citizens, American citizenship will be eroded.

A HUG SYMBOLIZES FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE

Posted on May 13, 2020January 23, 2022 by Tawsif Anam

The word “hug” symbolizes friendship and love. A hug is extremely powerful. And yet, in this age of social distancing, people are not hugging each other, fearing the spread of the coronavirus. People hug each other upon meeting up, when saying goodbye, when mending broken ties, to congratulate, or to help alleviate one’s sorrow. A…
