Intro:
In this vast network of life, every node is intertwined—
We’re bound together by simple rules that keep our futures aligned.
When we act with kindness, trust, and care, our bonds grow ever strong;
These rules, though simple, light the way, and guide us all along.
Verse 1 (Default Cooperation Rule):
I choose to start with open hearts, a simple truth to share,
When we meet, I’ll always cooperate—assume goodwill is there.
No pretense of malice, just a promise in my tone,
That every new encounter begins with kindness fully shown.
Verse 2 (Observation and Memory Rule):
I watch the actions of my peers, their deeds I’ll not forget;
A memory of every smile—or every slight that’s met.
For every gesture speaks a truth, a story that unfolds,
So I record the patterns of their hearts, in whispers and in gold.
Verse 3 (Conditional Punishment Rule):
Should someone stray and break the bond, I won’t let it slide;
I’ll signal with a firm response, so trust is not denied.
A measured, gentle punishment—just enough to set it right,
A lesson learned in every round, a beacon in the night.
Verse 4 (Forgiveness (Reset) Rule):
But if the wronged one then returns, with care to make amends,
I open up my heart again, and let the hurt suspend.
Forgiveness is our healing song, a chance to start anew,
A soft reset that mends our ties and makes our bonds more true.
Verse 5 (Threshold Tolerance Rule):
Not every slip calls for a storm, some faults are small and brief;
I hold a gentle tolerance, to ease the hurt and grief.
Only when the missteps stack, and pain becomes a chain,
Do I withdraw my trust for long, to shield my heart from strain.
Verse 6 (Local Information Update Rule):
I learn from every day’s exchange, adjust the trust I keep;
My view of you is ever shifting, as memories run deep.
With each new act, I update well, my heart a living guide,
So I respond with wisdom earned, not hardened by my pride.
Verse 7 (Resource and Environmental Awareness Rule):
For we all share this common ground, the very air we breathe—
Our actions shape the world around us, in every small bequeath.
I know that when we harm our world, we hurt the bonds we share;
So I act with care and mindful love, for nature and for air.
Chorus:
In this web of life, these rules hold us together,
They mend our broken bonds and make our futures better.
Cooperate, forgive, and learn from all we do—
The strength of every heart depends on caring, pure and true.
Outro:
So here we stand, connected souls, with rules that light our way;
In every act of empathy, our network finds its day.
Though struggles may come, and conflicts try to tear apart,
Our simple truths and gentle hearts will keep us whole, right from the start.

"Viral Don’t Mean Vital" is a rhythmic reality check wrapped in a head-nodding beat.
This track takes aim at the hollow glow of internet fame — catchy, fleeting, and ultimately empty. With clever rhymes and a bounce that keeps it moving, the song reminds us that trending doesn’t equal truth, and clout can’t cook dinner or care for your elders.

It’s a message for the moment: we’re all scrolling, posting, reacting — but what are we building?
With pointed lyrics and a grounded groove, Dr. Lach lays it bare: real life isn’t measured in likes, it’s measured in impact.

This one’s for the thinkers, the doers, the ones who know that meaning doesn’t come with a hashtag.

Hearts and Heels is a fun, heartfelt tribute to two extraordinary podiatric medicine residents who’ve kicked, crawled, and finally sprinted their way across the finish line—gracefully, of course. One mastered the art of balance (literally) as a martial arts expert; the other juggled rounds and diapers as a parent of twins. Together, they proved that there’s no obstacle—be it foot-related or life-related—that can’t be handled with skill, stamina, and a solid pair of compression socks. Dr. Elliot Lach honors their resilience, humor, and deep dedication to the field of podiatric medicine with this audio piece. Cheers to these newest foot soldiers of healthcare—who just graduated with flying colors (and are now putting their best foot forward).

Hearts and Heels: Ode to Dr. Jordan and Dr. Viet


"Someone I Never Asked" by Dr. Elliot Lach is a song about identity, illusion, and the quiet heartbreak of loving someone who kept changing to be what they thought you wanted—never realizing they were enough from the start.

This track blends vulnerability with sharp poetic insight, offering a mirror to anyone who's ever loved someone wearing a mask.
