Things to be Thankful for this Cov-Eid Raya

Things to be Thankful for this Cov-Eid Raya

There's a lot of fear in the world right now. I'm giving myself permission to be afraid, because there is nothing wrong or shameful about being afraid, and I'm choosing to be intentional on where I put my energy and focus, to constantly practice being in the present moment, to really look at my fears with loving curiosity and I say thank you......

Morgan Harper Nichols has to be one of my favourite current writers/poet/inspiration. Her words touches my heart, deeply, and this came up right when I needed it most.

I need to share this here, in case you and I forget that we are human and we are alive, together taking exhale together.

Begin Again

Begin Again

What is the hardest thing you did today ?

For some, waking up is hard. Going to work is hard. Not meeting loved ones is hard especially if you don't live in the same country. Not having someone to love is hard.


And let me tell you for me, the hardest thing to do is to begin again, every morning, every day after a setback or bad news, especially during this COVID times.

So I thought it's apt to start the 2nd month of 2021 with a reminder to begin again.

It's okay to feel whatever you feel - resentment, feel like a failure, useless, overwhelmed and...... truth is you are human, a human with a capacity to feel and heal. 

The hardest and the bravest you can do is to begin again.

Do that. Be Brave.

Hello 2021 (Can I come in?)

Hello 2021 (Can I come in?)

I finally finished my New Year Resolution list of some sort, because I don't call it resolutions; I used to call it my Invented List of Possibilities, and for 2021, I changed the name to My Self-Care Playlist because I can.
But seriously I really struggled writing my plan for 2021, and changing the words got me inspired to write about things that is focused on self-care because that is what is sorely needed as we move towards another COVID-filled year.
