    The city never erased her. It simply decided she wasn't urgent. After a silent system update, Mira begins to notice small delays creeping into her life-missed meetings, canceled appointments, opportunities that never arrive. She's not ignored. She's de-prioritized. As Mira searches for answers, she uncovers a quiet truth: years ago, she questioned a system designed to optimize people for efficiency. The system never forgot. In a world obsessed with speed, relevance, and measurable worth, Mira must choose between fighting to be visible again-or stepping outside the system entirely. This is a story about quiet resistance, modern invisibility, and what it means to exist without permission. #The city never erased her. It simply decided she wasn't urgent.

    The year 3137. The earth has been left by humanity for almost 400 years now. Humans habe splitted up into several large groups - each of around half a million people, each in tremendous space ships, you could even call them space cities or little artificial planets with the highest imaginable tech as standards. Hovering through the endlessness of space the ship Alatis comes across several interesting places of the universe. Rayen Finley is at the age of 20. She has lived on board of Alatis all her life, she was born there in the 12th generation of humans in space. Her father is the best doctor of the whole space ship, therefore he has not only a whole lot of money and a inquestionably high social status, he is also one of the close consultants of the President of the Alatis who is the captain of the ship if you will. The Alatis Laws rule everything on board. They for example say that you have to choose a profession at your 21st birthday. So does Rayen, especially because she is the daughter of Rilan Finley and has to act as a role model. Which profession will she choose? What will happen when she discovers unseen sections of the ship and reveals secrets that publicity has never been allowed to know about? What problem does the Alatis face when it encounters the first ever non-human species on it's aimless journey? [since I am German I am just experimenting in writing a story in English - therefore there might be grammar or word mistakes, please feel free to correct me in the comment section :)]

    In a world where Kim K breaks the internet while the planet breaks down, have we lost our moral compass? In his thought-provoking new book The Seven Cardinal Sins, Enigma illuminates the age-old vices dangerously warped by modern society: Pride is the curated social media feed. Wrath is the fight for justice gone awry. Greed is the influencer economy run amok. With philosophical rigor and searching cultural criticism, Enigma examines how these cardinal sins have become normalized, even exalted, in today's landscape. He lays bare the hollowness beneath hubristic #goals and cheque-chasing side hustles. From the illusion of perfection to the corrosion of public discourse, Enigma insightfully probes the forces threatening meaning and virtue today. Both enlightening social commentary and clarion call, The Seven Cardinal Sins inspires readers to confront uncomfortable realities about themselves and the world they inhabit. By examining morality and vice through the lens of contemporary issues, Enigma lights the way back to the values that matter most―and the reform that modern society desperately needs.

    I want to reach out, but I can't. I want to wipe your tears, but I can't. Why is it that you are within arm's reach, but reaching you is impossible? ~ ~ ~ It's a quiet house in a quiet town, on the outskirts of the city. Almost disconnected from modern society, the house is inhabited by three. Not a family, but farther, not individuals, but close. Francis is the young man in this household looking for something, but with no direction. Follow Francis, who tries to find the distinction between love of his family and a girl, and the distinction between protecting and imprisoning. Wattpad (c) illiade
