A Life Before AI

By:
A Life Before AI  As technology and artificial intelligence reshape everyday life, Sarah and Hazel wonder whether humanity is gaining convenience at the cost of meaningful relationships, patience, and well-being. Through conversations across generations, they explore the beauty of life before AI and the challenges of living in an increasingly screen-dependent world. A World Before Artificial Intelligence A generation may one day look back and wonder, What was life like before artificial intelligence? Sarah and Hazel often thought about this question. As technology and innovation continued to transform the world, they wondered how people had lived before AI became part of everyday life. They wanted to explore the past and understand how ordinary people communicated, worked, entertained themselves, and built relationships without relying on modern digital devices. In the past, people often interacted face-to-face, exchanged handwritten letters, and used landline or cordless pho...

Cris Doodling Series


“Cris Doodling Series” takes young readers on a whimsical journey through the imagination of Cris Alberto—a boy whose drawings magically come to life! From talking animals and playful pranks to heartfelt lessons and dreamy adventures, each short story bursts with wonder, laughter, and surprises. Whether it’s a frog in the living room, a squirrel with a sweet tooth, or a thief with a kind heart, these tales remind us that creativity holds the power to change the world.


What Is Cris Doodling?

Cris Alberto loves to draw. His crayons aren’t just colors — they’re magic. Whenever Cris doodles, the world around him changes. The red car he drew once gave him a ride through busy city streets. A red balloon lifted him into the clouds. At the zoo, his bear doodle reached down, picked him up gently, and carried him high above the crowd. With each sketch, Cris’s imagination takes him on a new adventure — one more magical than the last.





1. Snake on the Twig


While building a sandcastle, a girl discovered a stick wrapped in what looked like a soft black wire. As she unwrapped it, the wire began to slither. It was a real snake! Terrified, she dropped it, and the snake slid inside her castle and vanished. The shock made her cry — and she never played in the sandpit again.





2. Squirrel and Kit-Kat


One snowy day, a squirrel appeared outside the window and snatched a Kit-Kat bar from the sill. She returned again and again, munching on almonds and chocolate. One day, she slipped inside through an open window and got lost. The family laid a path of Kit-Kats and almonds leading to the tree outside. She followed the trail and safely returned to her cozy treehouse.





3. Rain and the Cat


On a stormy night, a drenched, shivering cat meowed in the cold. A kind woman brought her inside, gave her warmth, but sadly, the cat didn’t survive. Heartbroken, the woman buried her in the garden with flowers. Moved by love, she later adopted three more cats — giving them a forever home.





4. A Frog Inside the Home


Mr. Frog came into the house with a potted spider plant. At night, he hopped out, startling the children. They climbed onto the sofas, screaming, while Mr. Frog only wanted to find the way back out. They opened a window, and he leaped his way to freedom — toward the park and pond he came from.





5. Robin’s Friend


Robin dreamed of building his dream house. After much thought, he chose wood for its warmth over cold bricks. When it was done, the house was beautiful — but lonely. So he invited friends for a sleepover. They loved it so much, they built their own houses nearby. Still feeling alone, Robin made a deal with a rabbit: “Bring me nuts, and I’ll stay forever,” the rabbit said. So began a warm friendship filled with shared snacks and laughter.





6. The Speed


Driving always looked fun — until Cris tried it. Holding the steering wheel was exciting, but real roads were nothing like simulators. Confusing the accelerator and brake was easy, but sudden stops were scary. In the end, he decided: he preferred the passenger seat — for now.





7. Wait!


Stress whispered in Cris’s ears, telling him to rush through everything. He heard voices in the stars, strange and demanding. But with time, the pressure faded, and peace returned. He realized some feelings are just passing clouds — and calm always comes after the storm.





8. Digital Planet


In a world filled with screens and noise, Cris noticed how broken phones seemed to reflect broken hearts. Each crack told a story. Digital life wasn’t always easy — but through art, he found a way to express what words couldn’t.





9. What It’s Like to Be a Flower


A flower blooms in quiet strength. It doesn’t need to speak to bring joy. In its scent and color, it carries hope, freshness, and a smile for every eye. Cris sketched them often — not just for beauty, but for their silent resilience.





10. Sarah’s Dream


Sarah dreamed she was a bird, flying across snowy peaks and green valleys. She made friends in the skies and raced to mountain tops. When she woke, she bought a pair of cockatiels and cared for them deeply. One day, she left their cage open, and they flew away. Heartbroken, she adopted a puppy — and he became her loyal companion for life.





11. Mr. Cat


Mr. Cat loved weekends — lazy naps, warm baths, and soft music. But Mondays? Pure chaos. Rushing, forgetting, missing his cookies. Still, at the end of every week, he found joy again in curling up with his favorite woolen ball and resting till Sunday night.





12. Sleeping Cat


She decorated her living room with lush green plants. But after a trip with a friend, she returned to chaos. Her cats had destroyed the plants, and soil covered the carpet. The cats had vanished. Days later, she adopted two calmer cats from a shelter — they preferred sleeping over mischief. Her home was peaceful again.





13. The Kind Thief


One night, a thief broke into a mother’s home. Instead of panicking, she calmly offered him food. He ate in silence, then returned all the valuables. She gave him some money and a warm smile. Touched, he gave up stealing, found work, and wished he could one day tell her how that one act of kindness changed his life forever.


14. Money, Money, Money


Money says, “I’m everywhere—but earning me is the real challenge.”

Guess what? Only a few know how to hold on to me wisely. I’m famous for growing through savings. If you spend me too fast, I may never return. But if you save me, I’ll multiply in your account and offer access to your surplus.

So, handle me with care. I might come and go, or I might disappear, leaving you broke.

Remember—when I arrive and you treat me well, I grow… just like a money tree.



15. The Untraveled Trip


She dreamed of a place where countless trips unfolded—destinations she’d never seen, adventures she’d only imagined.

She longed to escape, to journey far away, but the more she walked, the stranger everything became.

The trip turned haunting. She clutched at nothing and tried to run.

Suddenly, she awoke—in a quiet room, no suitcase, no ticket.

Only a bed. Only stillness.

Was it a dream, or a sign she wasn’t ready to go?


Cris’s doodles weren’t just drawings — they were windows into feelings, fears, joy, and friendship. And maybe, just maybe, we all carry a little bit of Cris inside us — doodling our way through life’s strange and beautiful stories.


If your drawings could come to life just like Cris’s, what would you doodle first—and where would your imagination take you?

Four Friends, One Heart

By:
Four Friends, One Heart True friendship is not measured by how similar people are. It is measured by how they stand beside one another when life becomes difficult. Sometimes, the strongest friendships are built by people who understand disappointment, change, and struggle—and choose to face them together. This is the story of Alex, Emma, Stacy, and Deena, four friends whose lives changed unexpectedly, but whose friendship remained stronger than the challenges they faced. Alex, Emma, Stacy, and Deena had been best friends since high school. They were different from one another, but they shared something special—a friendship built on trust, understanding, and unconditional support. Each of them had experienced an unexpected change in life. Alex had suffered a stroke at a young age. The experience changed many parts of his daily life, but it never took away his determination to move forward. Emma had been involved in a serious car accident that left her using a wheelchair. In the beginnin...

By:
Winnie Went to Missouri: The Wandering Child Have you ever gotten lost in a place so big it felt like a maze? That’s exactly what happened to Winnie, a curious first-grader with a big heart and an even bigger imagination. What started as a simple school trip turned into an unforgettable adventure — one that would take her much farther than she ever expected… A Trip to the Museum It was Thursday, January 6th, 2023. Three first-grade classes from Pine Hill Elementary were going on a field trip to the city museum. Winnie, always full of wonder, was especially excited.

It looked like something from a fairy tale. When she turned arou...

Beneath the Neem Tree

By:
Beneath the Neem Tree This story is a reflection of a real place—rooted in memory, love, and quiet moments beneath the shade of a tree that stood for generations. The neem tree at the heart of this story was no ordinary tree. It was a well-known, evergreen beauty—gracefully spreading its branches and standing as the tallest tree in the center of our courtyard. Planted by my grandmother’s father-in-law, it became a living witness to family life, childhood joys, and the passage of time. Though the tree is no longer there, its presence lives on in the memories we carry. In the heart of a noisy, fast-growing city stood an old house, and in the middle of its courtyard grew a neem tree—tall, proud, and deeply rooted in both soil and memory. This neem tree wasn’t planted by chance. It was placed there by my grandmother’s father-in-law, many decades ago, with care and intention. Over the years, it grew into something more than just a tree. Its wide branches spread like arms embracing the house...

Lucky Charm

By:
  Lucky Charm What would you do if money started appearing out of nowhere — not once, but again and again? Caleb, a gentle and honest soul, finds himself at the center of an unexplained mystery on his terrace. This short story explores wonder, fear, and the quiet magic of life that disappears the moment we try to explain it. C aleb lived a quiet life. He was soft-spoken, gentle, and known in the neighborhood for always telling the truth — even when it didn’t benefit him. His days followed a peaceful rhythm: work in the morning, a jog in the afternoon, and music in the evening. But it was the terrace he loved most. That little open space on the rooftop was his retreat. He’d go up each evening, water the green chilies and baby tomatoes he’d planted in ceramic pots, and sit with a cup of tea, watching the sun slide behind the buildings. The terrace smelled of earth and sky, and to Caleb, that was comfort. One ordinary Tuesday, as he bent down to check on a sprouting tomato plant, he s...

Their Love Touches Heaven

By:
Their Love Touches Heaven A story about two souls whose friendship blossoms into a lifelong love — a bond so deep and pure that even death cannot part them. “Their Love Touches Heaven” reminds us that true love doesn’t end; it simply changes its home. B ob and Jenny were high school friends who understood each other in a way no one else could. They shared books, dreams, and quiet walks home from school. Their friendship grew not from grand gestures but from the simple moments that stitched their days together — a smile here, a kind word there, and laughter that lingered in the air long after they parted. Jenny was full of life. She often spoke her dreams aloud, painting her hopes in bright colors. “One day,” she would say, “I want to live near the lake, where mornings smell like rain.” Bob would listen quietly, his heart full. He never told her then, but he knew that wherever Jenny went, that’s where he wanted to be too. Time passed, but their bond remained unshaken. They attended d...
