About a week ago, I posted a video of a very inspiring documentary called the Lemonade movie. I was a bit puzzled because I expected comments consisting of what everyone thought about the movie. It then came to my attention that only people who live in the U.S. could watch the video since it is [...]
I once tried to use money as a motivator. It could not help me.
I once tried to use power as a motivator. It could not help me.
I once tried to use fear as a motivator. It helped to control me.
I once tried to use hatred as a motivator. It only served to [...]
Why do I exist? Why was I put on this earth? Simply to procreate and leave my mark on this overcrowded planet?
Since I was very young, I always wondered why we were put on Earth. Out of the hundreds of thousands of animals, it was probably pure luck that I was born a human being. [...]
A few nights ago, a friend told me something that I know will change me for the rest of my life. Now, you probably don’t know this, but I’ve been harboring a great pain from the social relationships I had in high school for many years. Four, to be exact.
These people tormented me. They made [...]
Over the last few months, I’ve been in college spending time working on homework, attending class, and socializing with friends. Through some miracle, I’ve been able to keep a blog for both myself and my readers, and post twice a week, every week.
And though it pains me to say it, I feel as if I [...]
Hmmm… two decades already. Reading such a phrase really makes you think when you consider that the average life span of a human being is somewhere around 7 and 8 decades.
I’ve come to the point where I’m beginning to accept that I can control what course my life takes. When I was much younger and [...]
As the community here grows, from time to time, I’d like to talk about the boy behind the blog: how I’ve grown, what I’ve learned from others, and what challenges lie ahead.
Note: Winter break starts and school’s out for 3 weeks (Yay!).
What I’ve learned (after almost a year of blogging)
It’s been a bit hectic. [...]
Everyday, our life begins anew. Some say our lives today are an extension of our lives yesterday, but I beg to differ.
One day, you could be a lost, confused mess in a sea of certainty. It’s as if everyone else knows who the are now and who they wish to become in the future except [...]
It kind of boggles me why so many of us are skeptics even when the truth is right in front of us. I mean, all the evidence can be right there, and we’ll still think “Yeah right. That’s a totally different situation“.
For example, I talked about how Jessica Mah started her own successful business at [...]
I recently completed one of my life goals yesterday: I went downtown (Chicago if you’re curious) alone. Yes, I know that it may not be a big deal, and yes, going downtown is probably an everyday occurrence for most of you, but for me, this was HUGE.
Among my friends, I’m notorious for not being [...]
