Deep in the arid plains of southern Peru lies one of archaeology’s most fascinating and mysterious wonders—the Nazca Lines . These enormous geoglyphs, etched into the desert floor, have captured the imagination of explorers, historians, and conspiracy theorists alike for nearly a century. But what are they exactly? And why do they continue to baffle experts to this day? The Nazca Lines are a collection of over 800 straight lines , 300 geometric shapes , and 70 animal and plant figures , including a monkey, hummingbird, spider, and even a human-like figure often referred to as “The Astronaut.” Some stretch over 12 kilometers long , while others span the size of several football fields. They are located in the Nazca Desert , an extremely dry, windless plateau that has helped preserve the lines for over 2,000 years . Believed to have been created by the Nazca people between 500 BCE and 500 CE , these geoglyphs were made by removing the reddish pebbles on the desert surface to re...

  There is something timeless and powerful about storytelling. Before we had books, blogs, and screens, we had voices by the fire, passing down lessons, wisdom, and dreams. And that’s how it started for me too. Sitting by my grandmother’s side, hearing her tell stories that made me laugh, cry, and wonder. I didn’t know it then, but that spark ignited something in me—a deep love for words and the magic they hold.  Storytelling, for me, is not just a skill. It is a calling. It is how I understand the world and how I share my heart with others. Through writing, I can speak where my voice cannot reach. I can be present in places I’ve never stepped. That’s the beauty of stories—they travel farther than we ever will. In this article, I want to open my notebook to you—not just with theory, but with real truths from my journey. If you’re an aspiring storyteller, blogger, or creative soul, I hope this helps you walk your path with confidence.   1. Know Why You Write   ...

   Sasani studios in South Africa In 2012, I was in my early 20s when I took a significant step by leaving my home country to pursue opportunities in South Africa. South Africa, a vast country offering diverse opportunities, is particularly conducive for African talents looking to kickstart careers in modeling, music production, filmmaking, acting, singing, dancing, comedy, and more. Personally, I ventured into modeling and acting. To begin in this industry, one must obtain a TPIN number for tax purposes, sign with a talent agency to access relevant connections, and pay a joining fee ranging from R300 to R500. Additionally, new entrants typically undergo photo sessions and receive training on posing and professional conduct for assignments. I signed with Posture Models and was selected to participate in the Rhythm City soap opera shoot at Sasani Studios, located in Johannesburg, South Africa. Sasani Studios, a prominent facility, houses various sets including those for Big...

TIME AND SOCIETY POEM By Luckier Chikopa  Guest Writer Name : Luckier Chikopa PenName: Luckier Chikopa Genre: Poems/Shortstory/Articles Profession:   Poet, Electrical Technician and an Electrical Installation and Electronics Instructor at Milonga   Community Technical College in Thyolo district. Location: Malawi  TIME AND SOCIETY   We bow down to the whims of time all the time All the time we hope time will give us best times But time gives us an equal measure bitter sweeter times at times In the long run, we seem to convince ourselves that we cannot run away from time     When time from the west caught up with us, it ambiguously brainwashed and corrupt our cultural values in the society Time from the west said, why don’t you try our fashion? And society said yes! Time from the west said, why don’t you go and build on top of soche, Ndirande, mpingwe hills And society said yes!   Yes!     And tha...
