No Sad Faces: Essays from Aly Osama

By Aly Osama

What is wholeness? What's the relationship between love and ego? Is death really scary? How can stereotypes be useful? What makes capitalism dominant? Should I go to therapy? How can I love myself more? Does God have a role in all of this?

This is what happens when philosophy meets empathy.

No Sad Faces is the best of both worlds. It's an attempt at balancing between thinking and feeling. It's inspired by yesterday's decisions, today's actions, and tomorrow's hopeful outcomes.

No Sad Faces is also an attempt at preserving perspectives and our rights to disagree with them. It's a book about freedom: the freedom to think for yourself and the freedom to be in the wrong. Reading this book is like looking in the mirror.

No Sad Faces is also about containment. Whether you're young or old, this book serves as a reminder that there is so much humanity to learn from out there. No Sad Faces presents an honest outlook on humanity - our virtues and our vices - and encapsulates our shared human experiences in one word: empathy.
