You have to write. What if I have nothing to say?What if it’s not good? Or good enough? Or as good as before?What if what I have to say doesn’t matter?No. I don’t want to say something. You don’t write because you want to say something. You write because you have something to say. Yes. […]
“I would’ve thought you are a writer.” I don’t know what it is that the girl in the chocolate store in Belgium saw in me, but it was more than I had ever seen in myself. She saw my truth, she saw me for who I was. Writing has been my singular truth long since […]
Discovery. It was the word of 2018. I don’t think I would have chosen it so, had I written this post at the close of last year. But that’s what I ended up discovering. I discovered a lot of things this year – about people, my people, places (past and yet to come), about life […]

It’s time. It’s that time, yes it has come. To answer this question, maybe even question it first. No one will tell you what to do, no one will stop you even. Isn’t that what we’ve always wanted? Independence, freedom of choice, of life? Well it’s here, and now. This post is one of those, […]
Fallin’ in love now Losing control now… Another season stumbles into a new fall. Fall – one of my favorite seasons, one of my favorite times of the year. There’s something about entering fall that always sets up me into this contemplative mood. The year almost closing, yet a whole new quarter is still to […]
