A story about redemption. — The past two years were all about redemption for me. After having a pretty long religious journey in 2019, I wanted to take some time to take a hard look at myself and fix a few things I cannot fix thus far. I have been able to transform some major…

I can’t believe I’m back here again. — At the time when I thought I would be happier than ever, at least happier than the rest of the year, I’m back in a depressed state again. I recognize it so easily. I’ve been in this position 3 times before and this one is very familiar to my very…

Needless to say, I couldn’t think of a better example. In a lot of drama-romance movies/tv shows, there are often scenes where a couple…

Why doing as little as possible just matters as much — I went to a hospital the other day to take a SWAB test as a lot of people did. As I was waiting for my turn, I saw a lot of doctors and nurses passing by and I started to wonder, “What does it feel like to wake up knowing…
