  • Gone Too Soon: A Requiem for Friends

    Gone Too Soon: A Requiem for Friends

    Two weeks ago, I crashed my motorcycle—a reckless, split-second mess that could’ve wiped me out. I was riding home after a late shift, the road a blur, when the wheel slipped on wet asphalt. I skidded hard, helmet grinding against the ground, shoulder wrecked as I hit the deck. I got lucky—just bruises and a limp—but lying there, I saw it clear as day: life’s fragile, and it doesn’t care if you’re ready. I could’ve been gone, and who’d even know?

    Then today, the news hit like a fist. Ragnhild, a medical doctor I knew from Norway, took her own life. She was pure light—bright, warm, always smiling, the kind of person who made you feel alive just being near her. I can still see her scribbling notes, cracking jokes in that soft accent. Unimaginable she’d end it. When I heard, it was ice in my veins—cold, sharp, unbearable. I wish I’d messaged her, asked how she was, begged her to talk to me about the depression she hid. I didn’t, and now she’s gone.

    And it’s not just her. Another friend—someone I partied with, laughed with, met up with like it was nothing—lost his life to cancer. It feels like yesterday we were clinking glasses, planning the next hangout. Then, boom, he’s eaten away, gone, and I’m left wondering why I didn’t call more. Another friend of mine, an Italian girl, Maria Valone, who was helping a lot of people, committed suicide. Then there’s Une, another friend, killed by an accident in Norway. Two friends lost to despair, one to disease, one to a sudden crash—my own accident still aching in my bones, and it’s a slap in the face: life’s too fragile to ignore the people who matter.

    Being a doctor doesn’t make you invincible. The job’s a pressure cooker—endless shifts, patients dying under your hands, the constant grind of stress and hazards wearing you thin. I’ve seen it break people, and now I’ve watched it swallow friends—one to despair, one to disease. I nearly joined them on that road.

    It’s inhumane, isn’t it? To let the ones you care about drift, to not check in, to act like they’ll always be there. Ragnhild needed someone to see her pain. Maria, too—so selfless, yet drowning in silence. My friend needed more than a memory of good times. Une didn’t even get a chance. We’re all hanging by threads, and pretending otherwise is just cruel. Nothing—nothing—is worth more than the people we shared moments with.

    I’m shaken, sore, and tired of losing people. Life’s too short to not care. Ask the simple questions—Are you okay? How are you holding up?

  • From Heavy Heart to Harmony: My Latest Song’s Story

    From Heavy Heart to Harmony: My Latest Song’s Story

    Lately, I’ve been carrying a weight I didn’t fully realize was there—until I sat down and let it spill out into my new song. Writing this piece felt like opening a window after being cooped up too long; the air rushed in, and suddenly, I could breathe again. Every lyric, every chord—it’s me untangling the mess of emotions I’ve been holding onto, turning them into something raw and real.

    This song isn’t just notes and words; it’s a mirror of where I’ve been and how I’m finding my way out. There’s a lightness now, like I’ve shed a layer I didn’t know was dragging me down. Pouring my thoughts into this track was my way of letting go, and I feel freer for it. I hope when you hear it, you catch that spark of release too—it’s my heart laid bare, and I’m so much lighter now.

  • The Robin Hood of Medicine

    The Robin Hood of Medicine

    There’s something thrilling about walking the tightrope between two worlds. On one side, I’m stitching together the dreams of the elite—offering cutting-edge medical treatments, aesthetic enhancements, and cosmetic miracles to those who can pay top dollar. On the other, I’m quietly slipping into the shadows to provide those same life-changing services to people who could never afford them. I call it being the Robin Hood of the medical world, and I’ll admit—it’s a title I’ve come to love. And I wish I could really dress like that!😅😎

    I didn’t set out to be some caped crusader. I’m just a guy who loves what he does—solving problems with a scalpel, a syringe, or a well-timed word of encouragement. Medicine is my craft, and I’ve worked hard to master it. The wealthy come to me because they know I’m good—damn good, if I’m being honest—and they’re willing to pay for that expertise. I charge what the market demands, and I won’t pretend I don’t enjoy the rewards. Money’s a tool, after all. It’s freedom. It’s the ability to say “yes” when I want to, whether that’s upgrading my clinic, taking care of my family, or just living life on my terms.

    But here’s the thing: the more I earn, the more I realize it’s not the cash that keeps me going. Sure, I’ve had my share of extravagant nights—sipping champagne in Dubai with skyline views that make your jaw drop, or cracking open a $1,000 bottle of wine at a table with Hamburg’s richest. It’s dazzling, no question. The kind of stuff you see in movies and think, “Yeah, I’ve made it.” And don’t get me wrong, I’m proud of what I’ve built. But when I close my eyes and think about the moments that actually light me up, they’re not the ones with a hefty price tag.

    They’re simpler. Messier. Like that time after a party when my buddies and I stumbled into a McDonald’s at 2 a.m., drunk on cheap beer and cheaper laughs, scarfing down cheeseburgers and arguing over who could do the dumbest impression of our old high school teacher. Or those quiet nights with someone special, where the world just felt right—no fancy dinners, no flash, just us. Those are the memories that sneak up on me, the ones that make me grin like an idiot when I’m stuck in traffic or prepping for a long day in the OR. Turns out, happiness doesn’t care much about your bank account.

    That’s why I do what I do. The high-end clients keep the lights on—and then some. But the real magic happens when I can turn around and offer a single mom a treatment she’d never dream of affording, or ease the pain of someone who’s been knocked down one too many times. I’ve seen eyes light up with hope when they realize they’re not just a charity case—they’re getting the same world-class care I’d give a millionaire. That’s not ego talking; it’s pride in knowing I can bridge that gap. I’ve got the skills, the resources, and—yeah—the heart to make it happen.

    Being rich is nice. I won’t lie about that. It’s a rush to know I can provide for my kids, spoil the people I love, and build something lasting. But the older I get, the more I see that contentment isn’t tied to the zeros in my account. It’s in the laughter of my friends, the trust in my patients’ eyes, the chaos of raising my kids, and the quiet moments with someone who gets me. It’s in knowing I can use what I’ve earned—both the money and the knowledge—to lift others up.

    So, yeah, I’ll keep playing this Robin Hood game. Charging the wealthy what they’re happy to pay, then giving it away to those who need it most. It’s not about the headlines or the applause—it’s about the balance. The freedom to live well and the privilege to do good. That’s the goal, and I’m chasing it every day, one patient at a time.

  • The Forgotten Ones: A Plea from a Broken Heart

    The Forgotten Ones: A Plea from a Broken Heart

    Every so often, the steady hum of our hospital is pierced by a sound that stops me in my tracks—the soft shuffle of small feet, the hesitant whispers of voices too young to carry such weight. They’re the children from the orphanage down the road, brought to us when illness or injury overwhelms the meager care they receive. Some are feverish, their little bodies burning up. Others are blind or deaf, navigating a world that feels so much bigger and lonelier for them. All of them are without the one thing I’ve always taken for granted: a family to hold them close. And every time I see them, it breaks my heart. I die a little bit inside.

    I’ll never forget the first time I met a little girl—let’s call her Maryam. She was barely five, drowning in a hospital gown that hung off her fragile frame like a shroud. Her eyes, milky with blindness, couldn’t see the cold, white walls around her, but they seemed to pierce right through me. I took her tiny hand in mine, guiding her through the maze of corridors, and I felt a lump rise in my throat. She’d never known a mother’s lullaby, never seen a rainbow after a storm, and yet she smiled—a small, brave smile that tore me apart. How could someone so small carry so much strength when life had given her so little?

    maryam isn’t alone. There are so many like her, hidden in the lone corners of the world—orphaned, ill, forgotten. They come to us with coughs that rattle their chests, with ears that will never hear a kind word, with eyes that will never see a friendly face. We patch them up as best we can, stitching wounds and doling out medicine, but there’s no cure for the emptiness they carry. Each time they shuffle in, wide-eyed and uncertain, I’m reminded of how fragile they are—and how unfair it is that they’ve been left behind.

    Working here has changed me in ways I can’t unfeel. It’s made me see the privileges I’ve never had to question—a warm bed, a full stomach, the comfort of knowing someone cares. These kids have none of that, and it haunts me. There’s a guilt that gnaws at me, a heavy ache that I can’t shake—guilt that I can’t scoop them all up in my arms, that I can’t give them the love they deserve. Every time I see them, it’s like a piece of me crumbles away, leaving me raw and restless.

    There was a boy—I’ll call him Sam—who came to us with an infection that had taken hold of his small body. He was deaf, and words couldn’t reach him, so I sat by his bedside, holding his hand, hoping he could feel that he wasn’t alone. We communicated through touches and smiles, a silent language of care. When he got better and they took him back to the orphanage, I felt a bittersweet ache—relief that he’d healed, sorrow that he was returning to a place where he might fade into the background again. That night, I couldn’t sleep. I lay there, staring at the ceiling, wondering what kind of life waits for , for Maryam, for all the others. Will they ever know what it’s like to be truly seen, truly loved?

    If there is a God out there, I wish He’d give me all the courage and guidance I need to help people with special needs—these kids especially. I feel so weak sometimes, so scared. It’s perhaps my biggest fear in life: people attaching to me, relying on me, and me getting too close. What if they become dependent on me? What if someday I can’t be there for them? What if I cause an even bigger disappointment by not showing up when they need me most? The thought terrifies me, twists my insides into knots. I don’t have the courage yet—not fully—but it’s my mission to become a better, bigger man, to conquer these fears that live deep inside me.

    It’s overwhelming, the size of it all. The forgotten fragile people—especially these children—seem to stretch out endlessly across the world, tucked away where we don’t have to face them. But I’ve learned something in the midst of this heartbreak: even the tiniest gesture can matter. A donation to an orphanage, a few hours volunteered, a story shared to remind others they exist—these things can ripple out, touching lives I’ll never see. And for those who can offer more, maybe fostering or adopting could be the lifeline a child like Sam or Maryam needs. Every one of them deserves a home, a family, a chance.

    As I sit here, pouring my heart onto this page, I think of those kids—the ones who break me every time they walk through our doors. They’re why I keep going, why I can’t look away even when it hurts. They’re the reason I’m asking you, begging you, to care too. Don’t let them stay forgotten. Don’t let their quiet courage go unnoticed. Be the hand that reaches out, the voice that speaks up, the light that cuts through their darkness. May the promised day come when no human is in pain, when no human is hurting others, when there’s just love and compassion in this world. Because every time I see them, I die a little bit—but I also live a little more, hoping that somehow, together, we can make their world a little less lonely.

  • Love That Lingers in Iran: Why I Still Honor Her in Silence

    Love That Lingers in Iran: Why I Still Honor Her in Silence


    I’ve always been the kind of man who moves through the world with a certain edge—a sharpness that keeps most people at arm’s length. It’s not that I don’t care; it’s just that I’ve learned to protect myself, to keep my guard up. The world can be a ruthless place, and I’ve never been one to shy away from its challenges. But there’s a side of me that few people ever see—a side reserved for those rare individuals who manage to slip past my defenses and touch something deeper.

    In all my travels, in all the places I’ve been and the people I’ve met, there was only one person who ever truly got under my skin. She was from Iran, a country as complex and beautiful as she was. We met under the most unlikely of circumstances, and yet, from the moment our paths crossed, I knew there was something different about her. She wasn’t just another face in the crowd; she was the kind of woman who made you stop and take notice, not because of her looks—though she was stunning—but because of the way she carried herself. There was a quiet strength in her, a grace that spoke of resilience and depth.

    What drew me to her wasn’t just her beauty or her intelligence, though she had both in spades. It was the way she saw through me, past the bravado and the walls I’d built, and straight into the heart of who I really am. She didn’t flinch at my rough edges; instead, she softened them. With her, I didn’t have to be the man who was always in control, always ready for a fight. I could just… be.

    Our relationship wasn’t perfect—nothing ever is—but it was real. It was the kind of connection that makes you believe in things like fate and destiny, even if you’re not the type to buy into that sort of thing. She was the only person I’ve ever met who made me want to settle down, to build something lasting. And for a while, I thought we would.

    But life has a way of throwing curveballs, and sometimes, even the deepest connections aren’t enough to hold two people together. We parted ways, not because of a lack of love, but because the timing wasn’t right. Or maybe because we were both too stubborn, too set in our ways. Whatever the reason, she left a void in my life that no one else has been able to fill.

    One thing I’ve realized in the aftermath of our breakup is how much I still respect her. Even now, after everything that’s happened, I can’t bring myself to speak ill of her. It’s not in me to tear her down or to diminish what we had. That’s not who I am, at least not when it comes to the people I truly care about. I’ve always been the type to fight for what I believe in, to stand up for myself and those I love, but when it comes to her, my aggression melts away. I can’t be mean to someone who meant so much to me, someone who still holds a piece of my heart.

    It’s funny, really. I’ve never been one to hold back my opinions or mince words, but with her, I find myself choosing my words carefully, even in my thoughts. I guess that’s what happens when you love someone deeply—you can’t help but treat them with a kind of reverence, even when they’re no longer in your life.

    And to anyone else reading this, I’ll say this: love is a rare and precious thing. When you find someone who makes you feel truly alive, who challenges you and inspires you and makes you want to be a better version of yourself, hold onto them. Don’t let pride or fear or timing get in the way. Because once you’ve had that kind of connection, nothing else will ever compare.

  • The Hidden Hell of Being a Doctor: Why We Seem Cold

    The Hidden Hell of Being a Doctor: Why We Seem Cold

    Let’s get real: being a doctor isn’t noble poses and dramatic saves. It’s a brutal, unglamorous slog that rips you apart in ways no one talks about. I’m not here to whine—I’m here to peel back the curtain on what we don’t say, because maybe then you’ll get why we come off as detached, why we push people away, even when we don’t mean to. Spoiler: it’s not because we don’t care. It’s because we care too damn much.

    Picture this: You’re doing CPR on a patient. Your hands are slamming into their chest, and you feel it—the sickening crack of ribs giving way under the pressure. It’s not a TV show with a triumphant soundtrack. It’s you, sweating, counting compressions, knowing deep down this one’s not coming back. The monitor’s flat, the room’s tense, and you’re the one who has to call it. Then comes the worst part: walking out to a family—wide-eyed, clinging to hope—and telling them it’s over. You watch their world collapse, and you’re the one holding the wreckage. That’s not a moment you shake off with a coffee break. That’s a scar.

    Those scenes? They pile up. Every lifeless body, every wail from a grieving spouse, every kid you couldn’t save—it sticks. And the kicker? You start imagining it happening to someone you love. God forbid, a parent, a sibling, a friend… someone you’d give anything to protect. That fear creeps in, uninvited, and it’s paralyzing. You’re not just fighting for patients; you’re fighting your own head, battling the what-ifs that keep you up at night. That’s the war no one sees—the one that turns you into a mess of anxiety and depression, the one that makes you hard-edged and distant.

    People think we’re robots. “Oh, he’s so cold,” they say, or “He doesn’t even flinch.” Truth is, we feel everything—too much, actually. Every patient’s pain seeps into us; every loss is a punch we can’t dodge. But we’ve got no choice but to lock it down. If we let it spill out, it floods everything—our homes, our relationships, the people we care about most. I’ve seen it happen. Hell, I’ve lived it. You try to shield the ones you love from the chaos in your head, but sometimes you push too hard, you break things you never meant to. Precious things slip through your fingers—not because you wanted them gone, but because you were drowning and didn’t know how to ask for a lifeline.

    I’ve stood over bodies, kept my face steady, and walked away like it didn’t gut me. I’ve saved lives—cracked chests open, pulled people back from the edge—and yeah, that makes me a hero to some. But the real fight? It’s the quiet one after the shift, when the adrenaline fades and you’re left with the ghosts. It’s the choices you make when you’re crumbling—pushing people away to protect them, or yourself, only to realize later it was a mistake you can’t undo. That’s the cost no one talks about. That’s why we seem detached. Not because we don’t feel, but because we’re terrified of what happens if we let it show.

    So next time you see a doctor who looks like he’s got a wall up, don’t judge too quick. He’s not heartless—he’s just carrying a load that’d break most people. He’s fighting to keep going, to keep saving, even when it’s tearing him apart. Maybe he’s lost things along the way, things he’d kill to take back. Cut him some slack. He’s not cold—he’s just trying to survive.

  • The Roads We Travel

    The Roads We Travel

    There’s a strange comfort in the way life unfolds, how it bends and weaves through moments you can’t predict. Lately, I’ve been tracing the paths I’ve walked—some deliberate, some stumbled upon—and noticing a pattern I didn’t expect. A year ago, I was lost in a haze, caught in a spiral that swallowed me whole. I made choices then, tough ones, not because I wanted to, but because the weight of the world left me no room to breathe. I’ve never been one to linger on regret; I own my decisions, even the ones that sting. But there’s a quiet truth I can’t shake: all the roads lead to you, even the ones I took to forget you.

    I’m not a man who thrives on noise or fleeting ties. People come and go, but every so often, someone steps in who changes the game. A presence that doesn’t just pass through but carves itself into your foundation. I’ve only known that twice in my life, and the second time—it hit different. It was a rhythm I didn’t know I needed, a mind that could keep pace with mine. Back then, I couldn’t see it clearly, not with the darkness pressing in. I walked away, thinking it was the only move left. Funny how survival can blind you to what matters most.

    After that, I tried to outrun it. Took detours, sat across from new faces, chased distractions. But every turn felt hollow, like a map drawn in pencil—temporary, erasable. My heart stayed locked, not out of spite, but because it knew something I wouldn’t admit: nothing else measured up. I’d rather stand alone, head high, than settle for less than what I’ve known. Pride’s a stubborn thing—it keeps you honest, even when it hurts.

    Now, the dust has settled. I’ve got space to think, to rebuild, to see the man I’ve become. I’m stronger for it—sharper, surer. And in that clarity, I’ve found something unexpected: gratitude. The bitterness of the end doesn’t erase the good that came before. There were days that still shine in my mind, feelings that woke me up to parts of myself I didn’t know were there. I’m thankful for that—for the fact it happened, for what it left behind. Whoever walked that road with me, they’re a piece of my story I’ll always carry.

    I wonder sometimes about the what-ifs. Not with desperation—I’m not built that way—but with a steady kind of knowing. If the paths crossed again, I wouldn’t pause or plead. I’d take her hand, slide a ring on her finger, and stake my claim. No kneeling, no questions—just the certainty of a man who knows what he wants, who’s done running. But life doesn’t hand out reroutes on demand, and I’m not here to chase ghosts. The past is the past, and I’ve learned to let it rest.

    Still, the realization lingers: every step, every wrong turn, circles back to that one point. All the roads lead to you, even the ones I took to forget you. It’s not a weight anymore—it’s a compass. I’ll keep moving, building, living, with a heart that’s locked but not closed. The universe has its own plans, and I’m open to them—whatever they bring, wherever they lead next.
