Big news for travelers: President Trump’s new rule demands five years of social media posts, emails, phone numbers, and family details from all foreign tourists—even from visa-waiver allies like the UK and Germany. It’s set to roll out after a 60-day comment period.

The move follows a deadly DC terror plot by an Afghan migrant and a new immigration freeze on 19 “high-risk” countries (Iran, Somalia, etc.). Trump’s eyeing bans on 30+ nations, plus re-vetting migrants and halting citizenship ceremonies—despite the 2026 World Cup and 2028 Olympics on the horizon.

Supporters hail it as protection from “anti-American” radicals. Critics call it a biased overreach. Bottom line: Your old tweets could now block your U.S. vacation.

Will this policy produce a net positive result for U.S. citizens, or is it another example of government overreach? Share your thoughts below. ⬇️

Chaga: King of the Medicinal Mushrooms

Sometimes a person needs to lose themselves in order to truly find themselves. Always remember that the past is a place of reference, not a place of residence; it carries lessons, not limitations. Don’t let yesterday’s shadows block tomorrow’s light – your next move is far more important than your last mistake.

There's a reason the rear view mirror is so small and the windshield is so big – what matters most is not where you’ve been, but where you choose to go from here. The future is waiting with open arms. Lift your eyes and keep moving forward knowing that the future is not bound by yesterday but built by the steps you take today.

In a groundbreaking revelation from the cosmos, NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission has unearthed molecular treasures within samples returned from the ancient asteroid Bennu: the first-ever extraterrestrial sugar, vital for life's building blocks, alongside a mysterious polymer dubbed "space gum" for its sticky resilience. These findings, announced in late 2024, illuminate the primordial soup of our solar system's origins, suggesting that the raw ingredients for biology may have hitchhiked to Earth on such carbonaceous visitors, sparking the dawn of terrestrial life billions of years ago.

A candle maker hired a young boy to help pour wax and trim wicks. The boy was enthusiastic but clumsy, constantly spilling wax and scraping molds. After a particularly messy day, he apologized, saying, “Maybe I’m not cut out for this.” The candle maker shook his head. “You’re judging the candle before the flame ever touches it.”

The next morning, the candle maker gathered all the boy’s crooked, uneven candles and lit them one by one. To the boy’s surprise, every single one burned steadily and brightly. Some even created softer or wider glows because of their unique shapes. “See?” the candle maker said. “A candle’s purpose is not to be perfect – it’s to give light.”

The boy watched the candles flickering, each one slightly different but all shining the same warm glow. Their uneven forms didn’t make them weaker; they gave each candle a light that shimmered in its own distinct way. “I thought the flaws would make them burn wrong,” he said. The candle maker smiled. “Flaws don’t stop a candle from shining. And they don’t stop people either.”

From that day on, the boy worked with new confidence, knowing that what mattered wasn’t flawless wax, but the light it would eventually give.

This story teaches that our imperfections don’t disqualify us, and they don’t cancel our ability to shine. In fact, our differences often allow our light to shine in ways no one else’s can. We spend so much time worrying about being polished – socially, emotionally, spiritually – that we forget the purpose of the soul is not to appear perfect but to illuminate, to make the world a bit brighter.

Just like the candles, people are shaped unevenly by life. Some experiences bend us, soften us, or leave marks. Yet none of that diminishes the flame we hold inside. Sometimes the very dents and curves of our lives become the channels through which our unique warmth comes through strongest.

The boy only saw his mistakes, never the purpose behind them. We often do the same – focusing on the spilled wax instead of the light we’re capable of offering. When we look at ourselves through a narrow lens, we underestimate our own potential. But the candle maker gives the truest reassurance – our worth is defined not by how perfectly we’re shaped, but by the light we can offer. And often, it’s the uniquely shaped candles that create the most unforgettable glow.
