“The knowledge that even the most effective bullying policies of schools failed to protect a student, whose difference attracted unwanted attention and scarring comments, influenced Neha’s decision to support John’s choice.”

“Staying alive means having to fulfil responsibilities and pay for all the expenses incurred while living. Since when did dying become an expensive affair, I thought to myself. What does it cost for a funeral these days? I embarked on a research and my findings increased my desire to live and crusade against all kinds of negative forces.”

“Appreciable moments in life marked the fulfilment of longstanding aspirations leading to one's emancipation from phobias about solitary odyssey and mental entrapment. My liberation from inescapable circumstances came as a planned getaway to Byron Bay, which seemed like biting the bullet on the surface. However, the trip was an absolute necessity for my rebound from failings inflicted by antagonists.”

“The pursuit of transcribing municipal documents ranging from 1860s to 1920s introduced me to Trove’s digital gazettes and newspapers. Trove assisted me in unraveling
the fascinating stories of fearless convicts who rebelled against unfair conditions and refused to comply with the authorities’ orders; stories of issues raised and resolved by the Kew council’s councilors, with the
locales and expenses recorded in communications written in stylish yet

“The place’s transformation first to a military hospital, and then to an asylum for older adults, the sick, and those disowned by families, appealed to my sense of recreational fear. It rendered the history of the dungeon with its myriad cells into which the authorities threw patients with mental illness and rebels horrifying; and the bathroom that had seen atrocities of all sorts, including murder and suicides, fascinating. I couldn't wait to be inside the building.”

“Endearments gave way to disparagements, clumsiness replaced attractiveness, and adulations traded for criticisms; all of which contributed to my frustrations and alienation. Feeling like a prisoner trapped in my own absurd world, I distracted myself by passing the IELTS examination in flying colors.”

“Jobless life came with guaranteed humiliation and belittlement, especially if you had been in a lucrative one for a significant number of years. Such a life created insecurities not only in the unemployed but also in those who
depended on the former. In my case, conditions forced me to lead that life, which was synonymous with mistrust, unreliability,
