If there is one topic that I think we try to avoid, it is death. When Daddy passed away in 2021, it taught me many things about love, living, grief, forgiveness, healing, letting go, slowing down and many other things that we would normally take for granted. Things that we set aside for later days….

God’s Given Days
A few days ago, yours truly turned another year older and wiser…I would say. There is something about birthdays that makes me extra grateful than what I already am. It’s in knowing that I have another year to add to my memoirs. Days and weeks and months of waking up to a new day, of…
as We forgive
It’s 1:30 a.m. I can’t count how many times or how long has it been since I would wake up around midnight or a little later and toss and turn trying my best to fall back to sleep. Every time when this happens, I would – most of the times – just lay still and…
What’s Your Story?
The beginning is always today… Forget the fear of blank pages, every new day is an open book waiting to be filled with all kinds of narratives. Why not be the bold author of your own book? If you can write your own story, how would you like it to start and end? Today is…
What’s Your Truth?
Even WordPress was excited about my three day posting streak! Who wouldn’t after many months of silence? I’m hoping that this will just be the start of many. Now let’s get real. Does the truth hurt your feelings or ego? I think accepting the truth is the hardest pill to swallow. If you saw something…

{Make Time}
My love for Korean dramas started after watching “Crash Landing On You”. A show recommended by my daughter. I can’t actually count how many KDramas I’ve seen after that. Today, I finished Navillera. The story is about a young man, an aspiring ballerino and a 70 year old man whose childhood dream was to learn…
Flying Through Fog
Oxford dictionary defines brave as ready to face and endure danger or pain; showing courage. But is that really all there is to being brave? If I am to define brave, I don’t think I can in just one sentence. I think bravery is more than just what Oxford dictionary is saying. Bravery is a…
{Out of Character}
“Being unmotivated means you need deep rest from the character you’ve been playing in the world…” I read this somewhere but there was no credit to who actually said it. Have you felt unmotivated lately? Unmotivated to write, maybe take photographs. Unmotivated to let yourself love freely, forgive easily or to just simply be. What…
