My dreams stayed in my father’s arms,  Longing for the scent of him.  All that’s left is his cap,  The one he wore with such love. My dreams stayed on my daughter’s cheek.  She grew up and went away.  How could I blame her?  She was only listening to me. My dreams searched for...

{:en} There are beautiful olive trees all around me. Each one's body has different curves, a different wonder of divine design. These are illustrious in Bodrum, olive groves overflow from the streets. The nature fuels me a lot when I am writing my articles. The olive grove that I am currently in is an extraordinary source of inspiration for me.

I am experiencing the miracle of the olive trees, and in order to...

{:en} As the days chase days and months chase months, we are in a “moment” where we come together again, so much so that if I were to ask you to talk about this “moment” now, what would be the first thing that comes to your mind? The very NOW that we are in, where neither the past nor the future has any place, where you are reading these lines! The 1989 movie “Dead Poets Society” directed by Peter Weir and starring Robin Williams as a teacher coincided with my teenage years. The movie was a big hit in those years and won the Academy Award for Best...

{:en} "A strong mindset, the first step in the outlook on life of those who lead a happy life, are taken in the 'family'. Therefore, the foundation of our negative mood and perspective is also laid in the family. In other words, our identity and identities first emerge in our childhood and the family environment we have. The family is the smallest building block of societies and also reflects the character of societies. In this article, I will mostly talk about the 'family,' which is often the beginning of everything; I will examine its beauties, difficulties, and inevitable problems.

{:en} We were peaceful and tranquil as children, but as we grew older, this peace was replaced with tension, anxiety, and the hustle and bustle of life. It is essentially ourselves, even though we initially sought peace and tranquility outdoors. We believe that happiness is a quick reaction that may be offered to us by people from the outside and that we can find tranquility in the things and experiences that the outside world offers. Let's take a moment to reflect: Have you ever been by yourself, silently relaxing your body with body motions and observing your thoughts while sitting down? Or have you ever expressed gratitude while...
