It’s funny how life has a way of coming full circle. When we are young we do things the way we please. It’s mostly because it’s the only way we know how – to listen to our heart. We are unadulterated by societal pressures and opinions, the very ones that have the power to take […]

An Act
Every single time that I watch Schindler’s List, I an overwhelmed and overpowered by emotion, emotion no amount of tears do justice to. It comes down to one life-altering fact – an act, of kindness. If all the world’s a stage, and all of life’s a play, then in the many acts of it, in […]
Are You Worried About Your Teeth Falling Out?
So does this mean I’m an anxious person? That is ALL I could think of after reading a post on Snapchat (yes I use it, and love it!) about common dreams and what they mean. I’ve pretty much had a hate-hate relationship with my teeth since the time that I was very young. I LOVE chocolates, […]
Where The Mind Is
Where the mind is without fear, fallacy, and falsity…. Lately, I’ve been thinking more and more about mental health – overall, as well as my own. How easy it is to take it for granted, to not check in on it, to not realize that it too, needs attention, care. Somehow, we are so quick to […]
The Greatest
To be here and to be alive, it simply is, the greatest. It took me just 2 hours outside of the city to realize how much I needed it, the whiff of nature, the breath of fresh air. So there I was, after 10 miles around the Appalachian trail, lying on plain ground, staring up […]
We The People
It’s the small, smallest acts of kindness that are so powerful; powerful messages. A busy restaurant, many reservations, many more waiting. A patient host, warm and comforting, tending to his customers as though they were guests in his home. I’m describing probably a typical scene at the local Cambridge restaurant, Cafe Luna, with the only […]
Are You There?
Are you there, living and breathing, right in this moment, are you there, here, present… I’m not a big believer in horoscopes, and not too knowledgeable about astrology. In fact, my only connection with it is part of my morning routine, when I skim through the Capricorn section of Daily horoscope. I started reading it […]
It’s All About Love
As a single girl in New York City, I’m often asked about my dating life. Especially in this swipe economy, not being on a dating app is looked at with nothing but plain horror. “How will you meet someone?”, is the most common question I get asked. To this I usually respond, “I would like […]
What Have You Seen?
Tell me love, what have you seen today? This question depicted in a mural by Shiv Suleman at Clarion Alley in San Fransisco, it popped back into my head as I walked around Greenpoint in Brooklyn today. The plan was to attend The Other Art Fair, presented by Saatchi Art. I had been looking forward […]
No? But Yes.
This long weekend has been a classic case of my overthinking brain, doing it’s usual overtime activity. Except, something was different. That difference was my choice. As someone who wants to do every single thing possible all the time, but also wants to do everything perfectly, I’ve often lingered in the ideation phase for a little […]
