Creativity begins when you exhaust what you know
SAID EVERYTHING WHAT YOU HAD TO SAY? I can still write. And I am surprised. I am empty. When I started with the blog, I had so much say, and too much to write. I couldn’t stop and help but write. Now, I stare at the blank screen, wondering; How many times will I tell the…

Nothing is going well, and I love it
LIVE ON YOUR OWN LIFE What does success mean anyway? Writing ‘well’ puts you in someone else’s shoes.

Life is flux, we are so connected to it
