Without constraint, but with openness and sheer joy to be uttering the insanity of understanding. To appropriate all of one鈥檚 potentiality for the sole purpose of growth and acceleration, without understanding the underlying force behind such change is to misunderstand that which is. 鈥淭hat which is鈥 transcends, and manifests as immanence, but most importantly reconciles the gap between the two.</p> Fri, 13 Mar 2020 17:32:31 +0000 Gilli Cohen 1918 at /morsl Reminder: Forget. /morsl/article/well-being-radix-reminder-forget <p>There are some memories you just have remember to forget. How can something amazing fall in the oblivion of my bare touch? What is my story if not a cautionary tale about memories? I forgot something important that I must not retrieve. There is a song that plays internally, eerily, every time my brain is unoccupied. It is making me wonder: what did I forget? An object? A person? A moment? And it hit me:<br /> <br /> An entire range of emotions.<br /> <br /></p> Fri, 13 Mar 2020 17:36:18 +0000 Catarina Trapp 1919 at /morsl What time did for me /morsl/article/well-being-radix-what-time-did-me <p>It changes.</p> <p>Give it some time, time heals.</p> <p>These words ring in my ears, in the morning when I wake up and during bedtime right before I start drifting away into my own world of innocuous but at the same time fearful dreams.</p> <p>I never thought it would be me. Everything was so perfect or so it seemed. For a girl who had it all; a caring supportive family, the most amazing friends, good grades and a passion for writing. Not just to me, but to the world it seemed that I had it all together.</p> Tue, 17 Mar 2020 19:50:21 +0000 Ibani Kapur 1923 at /morsl Introduction: Well-being /morsl/article/introduction-well-being <p>For this Winter 2020 edition of Radix, we wanted to explore mental health in some capacity. But what prompt would capture such a broad topic while still remaining open and accessible? We moved towards the word 鈥渨ell鈥, but were again uncertain about its context. 鈥淲ellness鈥 has been a buzz word for a while now, and it is associated with exercise trends and expensive skincare products. 鈥淲ellness鈥 has been marketed as some sort of ultimate, perfect, healthy state that you聽can work towards, where every element of your life can be in service to your mental and physical health.</p> Fri, 13 Mar 2020 17:53:35 +0000 Sonora Grimsted Yang, Muzi Li, and Jassim Ahmed 1920 at /morsl
