Proceed only if you're open to flawed people learning hard lessons about life and love. Story Synopsis Kiera Dela Cruz was a dedicated Architecture student who often felt like she was building castles out of sand-her designs never seemed to measure up to her professors' expectations, and bills piled higher than her sketchbooks. Growing up, she weathered abandonment by her father, chronic illness in her younger brother, and working odd jobs just to keep their small home running. Through it all, she had two anchors: her selfless mother Elena, who took double shifts as a caregiver, and her childhood best friend Marcus Reyes, a brilliant Computer Science major who never failed to tutor her through tough subjects or fix her broken laptop. Kiera had loved Marcus in secret for years, convinced that his steady presence would always be by her side. She leaned on him so heavily that she'd almost forgotten how to stand on her own. But like the rain she'd always loved-bringing life but sometimes causing floods-their bond was not meant to stay the same forever. When life forces them down separate paths, Kiera realizes that while she'd been reaching for someone else to shield her from the storm, she'd never learned how to dance in the rain on her own.

The end of the world isn't coming. It's already here. As the Earth cracks under climate disaster and divine silence, a forgotten prophecy returns-and with it, an unlikely team of misfits. A flying archer. A girl with code and cosmic glitches. A scientist in denial. And gods who may have just hit snooze on their responsibilities. But when Bhoomidevi-the Earth herself-begins to fade, even the smallest efforts could spark rebirth. Magic, mythology, and machine learning collide in this cli-fi fantasy about fighting for the planet... one arrow, one glitch, one butter-loving god at a time.

Throughout history, trees have filled us with wonder and sparked our imaginations. Writers, philosophers and even a small kid have found inspiration in the branches and leaves of trees around them. And it's little wonder. Trees are good for the soul. They're essential to us. And they provide a majestic example of strength and perseverance in the face of adversity. But have we ever wondered what a Tree full of wisdom think of humans...

A SCRAPBOOKING Collection of models & thoughts for Rebuilding the Village: our world as we wish it to be and could easily build in sustainable fashion. We may already have 90% of what we thought that we wanted. We may just have forgotten a few ingredients along the route that could change our dynamics entirely. This is my place-making spot, where I wish to collect some of the 'living' pieces we should need to see in our world as we move on and grow in it together. If you have contributing success stories / models / ideas you'd love to mention as well--to be researched for the future and final compilation--you're welcome to share them through comments inline, as this project grows from its tiny eco-seeded beginnings.

Have you ever walked past a pile of old wood pallets and thought, "What a waste!"? I used to think the same - until I realized these simple wooden frames have stories to tell and second lives to live. Wood pallets are the unsung heroes of the logistics world. They carry goods across continents, endure rain, sun, and weight... then often get discarded once their job is done. But what if that's not the end of their story? That's where creativity begins. From rustic coffee tables and garden planters to DIY shelves and wall art, pallets can become anything - if you give them a chance. The grain patterns, the nail marks, even the scratches tell a tale of journeys made and goods delivered. I started experimenting one weekend - just a single pallet, some sandpaper, and imagination. By Sunday evening, I had a handmade coffee table that looked straight out of a vintage magazine. Every project since has taught me something new: 🪵 That beauty hides in roughness. 🔨 That reuse is a quiet act of sustainability. 🌍 And that creativity often begins with what others throw away. So next time you see a wood pallet, don't just walk past. See it for what it could become - not what it was. What would you build from one? Let me know in the comments 💬
