I love my boring life. Boredom means safety and security, reliability; no surprises (I actually hate those). I don’t mean that I find my life boring per se, but that I have finally reached a point in my life that I never imagined to be attainable. I don’t wake up wondering where my next meal […]

Blink and you’ll miss it. My god, is that so true. I used to think it was just something old people said, or other parents just stated in order to commiserate with their peers. But the older I get, the truer it is that life just goes by way too fast. And what’s even crazier, […]

Life is so damn fragile, it boggles my mind. I am so guilty of letting trivial bullshit get to me and wear me down only to be slapped in the face by a daily dose of reality every time I check the news. A beloved public figure shocking dying after privately fighting a mysterious illness, […]
