A strand of thought: Life

In this world, we never have all the information. In reality, we don't have enough, or we have too much. You will have to keep putting one foot in front of the other even when you have too much or too little, and you can't decide.

But it'll be fine. You'll be fine.

God gave us something very good.

What's that? You may ask.

It's your intuition.
Things that catch your eye. Things that make you curious about how they feel. Things that send a shiver down your spine.

You just have to search for those things.

Life is a splash of colours But there is a hue which belongs to you Life is a motion of moments of which only you see and keep Life is a collection of tastes of which your tongue savours and remembers Life is the sky, mountain and sea where you soar, plunder and cross Life may be beauty and flaw which differs only in the eyes of the beholder Life may be small or big depending on how you want it to be Life quite often changes shape in the hands of its owner So do not merely live, but instead be the life you want to be                                                                                                       [saol]

New life habits and other changes

For starters, what I can see is that I have been trying to instill better life habits. Drinking more water is my everyday mantra. I keep reminding myself to gulp down more and I do. My 15-year-old self wouldn't have bothered. I hated plain water back then, unless if it was to satisfy the thirst caused by exercising. Homemade fruit juices were just the same; I disliked the icky texture swirling in my mouth and the instant fill it made in my stomach. But, who knew how much I would look forward to having my fill every afternoon with a blend of staple fruits like bananas, apples, oranges and the occasional dragonfruit and papayas? I always have it with some fresh milk, just to make it smoother and taste better.  Apart from...

Wolfsong by TJ Klune

How I Got into Reading It? I went into this book with zero expectations. My interest was initially piqued when a booktuber I follow on Instagram posted a gorgeous picture of the book, cover flipped open, revealing the pages within. After a brief glance at the wordings, I immediately chucked it into my TBR list. Fast forward a few months later, the eBook was already downloaded into my phone. Yet, I still hadn’t opened it. It wasn’t until my interest in boy’s love webtoons festered and grew that I remembered the existence of this title, waiting to be cracked open. I still remember scrolling to the first page on my eBook reader, promising myself that I, at the very least, would read a few pages. I spent the remainder of the night hooked onto the story. Within three days, I had finished reading the book. The Story The story is told from the perspective of Oxnard, who grows up in a family devoid of paternal love. His encounter with the Bennett family one day turns his life aroun...
