The author, Mohammad Amaan Siddiqui, has been interested in advocating for social causes since 2014. The alarming news during the Islamic month of Ramadan in 2014 where bombs were dropped on Gaza was a wake up call that reaffirmed that there was a world beyond gaming. This incident moved Amaan redirecting him towards youth activism and social sciences.

Since then, he has written many pieces targeting primarily young readers on matters of self-awareness, self-improvement, and other individual and personal affairs, social causes, various aspects of society, religion, politics and global affairs and even poetry.

Amaan is a strong advocate of peace, global unity, globally minded citizenship, feminism, philanthropy, social service etc. This blog is his primary platform to advocate for all that he wishes to stand for.
