  • Had Better Days…

    It’s been just over a week now since O-day. Overall, everything seems good in terms of the healing. I’m still generally off the pain meds, but still taking some arnica montana 30c a few times throughout the day. However, the mood the last couple of days has been less than stellar. Probably, my insides are…

  • Life is…

    Life is complicated and a roller coaster at times. Is it this way for everyone, or do other people have stable mental states and day-to-days? Would I want that even if I could? – Probably not. Nothing is wrong, per se. All is well physically, financially, etc. Yet, my mental state is jumbled. I’m a…

  • Rising Temperatures; Cooling Minds

    I love this picture so much. It represents the sense of melting that I feel in these really hot and humid days where I feel as if my skin is burning off even in the shade after just 5 minutes outside. It also shows my avatar relaxed and accepting the situation, which is how I…

  • When a Soul Leaves…

    I knew nothing about this person other than what I saw on TV when he was part of The Ellen Show or from his social media account dancing with his wife and family showing nothing but smiles on their faces. As many posts online state, one never truly knows what is going on the inside…

  • Oversaturation

    One of my favorite items to use in analogies is the sponge. It works on many levels – kids at about age eight are little sponges soaking up everything new with curiosity; pain can be absorbed like a sponge, but it doesn’t mean that it has left the body until you squeeze it out, but…

  • Just a Dip…

    There can be such loneliness in togetherness. I imagine that those couples who decide to get divorced after 20+ years together best understand this sentiment. When there is no one and nothing left to justify the lack of communication, lack of interest in trying to be heard, lack of trying to be a unit, then…

  • Burn Out

    Two years ago I was excitedly preparing to launch The Universal Asian 🙌🏽. Since then, there have been a few variations, twists and turns, ups and downs, but it has become something I am proud of – overall. Still, for two years it has taken up a large part of my mental space. Is it…

  • AAPI, AANHPI, or MH Month?!

    America is viewed as a country that will celebrate anything. A common observance shared with me by non-North Americans is the exuberance of Americans at amusement parks, conferences, sporting events, and our observances of different months, holidays, etc. Having not lived in the US for some time now, I am not as well-versed in the…

  • Physical Purging to Reset

    There’s nothing quite like a physical purge to reset the mind. **TMI Warning**⚠️ Yesterday I was continuing my inner rage, which I’m sure was reflected in my somewhat negative energy being emitted to others. M decided to fuel the rage with little comments. One in particular sparked a confused response of anger, frustration, and truth…

  • Protecting My Energetic Space

    It is trendy these days to talk about setting and keeping boundaries, which to many may seem either a luxury or an impossibility. There are some who may even consider it to be utter nonsense. Before we celebrated navel gazing and the sharing – or oversharing – of our feelings, people just got on with…
