My philosophy when writing Yes! I am just a dropout. But even someone like me has her thing when it comes to writing. And what are my beliefs? Why do I write? For whom do I write? What genre is my genre? How did I think of writing? And so on... Life has its ways of making us do tasks. Did I know I will be writing right now? Maybe yes, maybe no. I have always wondered why I was so awed by people taking liberal arts. I wondered why though I was majoring in Math and that I…

When you begin to question life, life with a purpose begins When you begin to question life, you begin to wonder how you've been doing so far. What am I doing doing with my life? What is this work I'm currently in? Do I feel satisfied with it? Am I paid properly? Am I learning something? Life with a purpose begins once you start asking questions. Perhaps you still don't know your purpose in life but the act of questioning already positions you in the higher level of life.…

Focus on your thing Don't let the world distract your going. The world is full of worldly goods and you'll be tempted before you even know it. Though having a lot of options is good, it does not do you any good if you keep being swayed. If you keep being awed by all that you see and you forget to decide on what to settle on. Let go of the things that does not give you growth. Or better yet, know what discipline means. Be modest in doing things. How are we different as part…

Let me just try Okay so seems there has been a lot going on and I had to try a few things that I have read from other people's posts. Wow! It's been days since my last post. What have I felt all those times that I wasn't able to log in? Honestly I felt my world crumble a little. It is just like how you feel when you have some relationship problem. I thought I will have to wait for updates here but the updates were quite different this time. Good thing, solutions are coming.…

Me when left alone I think of coffee and writing and burgers. Currently disappointed by how noodles taste so not including them for now. I think of sleeping and games and relaxing. I want to go around town to exercise thy taut muscles. I think about blue skies and cowboys and mountains. And fresh air and clean air and not so much air from people. I think about books and movies and music and Spotify. I think of my long-forgotten wanna-write novel. I want to spend a whole lot…

Difference between a princess and me There definitely is a great difference between a princess and me. Not about the position but yeah maybe position has something to do why they are very different from me, those princesses. I watch dramas where they are being bathed by their maids. Like their whole back scrubbed and their bath water filled to their neck. Also combing their hair until the hair shines so bright like silk. I forgot the title of those particular dramas where I…

What we can remind ourselves That arguing with someone should not necessarily be a case where we need to win. That we should once in a while lower our pride and tame our tongue. And speak nicely and positively. That we choose to be grateful for everything. For the tips receive on this platform, for every little thing we have, for our life and for the people supporting us. That we don't have to try so hard after trying so very hard and we aren't seeing results. As long as we…

Mountain and absence of signal I would have wanted to live here in this remote area but I long also for the grandiose of the city. In here, the air is fresh, the food organic, and the people know each other. Or not. We eat and sleep and sleep and eat. And a lot of fire in between. We gather around it to get its warmth and feel its power. During the night, we go right off to sleep and dream of the sunrise. We go from place to place to try and catch some signal of the internet…

Remembering some unrequited infatuation That time, I wasn't asking for too much. Not infatuation back. Maybe just like or just a little love. Sadly none of those little longings were granted. Years passed and still nothing changed. I went on with my life, not expecting anything anymore. Until I have forgotten all about it. But why, dreams? Why do you put me back to that time? Are our subconscious more powerful than our living will? I bet this is inside me, nothing more like…

Reason why I keep writing Who would want someone who is always out of the topic? Saying whatever's on her mind? And displaying unruly type of behaviour? The reason I keep writing is that I sometimes can't simply go to someone to unload my exploding brain cells. People also needed their own space and you can't just barge in to force your tantrums into their lives. But when I write, I can just write. There is no restraint except perhaps when I am writing for public consumption…

Some notable memories of my birth according to my mother It has been a real struggle for me, trying to pen down my mother’s account of how I came into this world. It would have been a nice article, to describe those precious moments of how she bore me and how the preceding events of my birth were so much memorable that she couldn’t confuse my birth with that of my siblings. I would want to beam with pride if only I could write those down as accurately as how she had…

But life is so precious to be spent on helplessness What you don't have, strive to get it. Only if it is worth it and it adheres to ethics and morals. But if what you want to have is unacceptable, forget about it. Life will offer more than you can dream of. Only if you believe it will and that you aspire for it to do that. But first, let go of the helplessness, and try to embrace what life you already have. This day's just so beautiful. Start with that. Appreciate what you…

Till next time Hi! I will be out again and it will be a few days break. To where we are going, there is no internet signal. Meanwhile, don't forget about me and expect my return. Honestly, I wanted to stay at my hometown. For good. But things like this one are my inconveniences. We go from place to place here and in some places, there are no signal or there is a very weak signal. It would be nice to linger here but there are also considerations. I will just be out a few days…
