Paris

The timing of this is not exactly perfect as reality has us in the pandemic still, with a fresh set of travel restrictions. But, I believe it’s important to remember the beauty of such experiences, the beauty of life; cherish these moments even if they’re now memories.

the magic of light

Inspired by Tromsø, Norway and the Polar Night. A story of the sun not rising for months (literally), how we view light with optimism and appreciating its distinctiveness. You're about to be mind blown!!

celebrating new things

The sensation of freedom is felt when your choice or your decision is prioritized, when it’s a matter of a risk you’re willing to take. The real question is “why not?”

winter is coming, but first…

Winter is coming but first, we have to watch the leaves fall gracefully from their trees, while the weather remains rather indecisive on whether to show us the full wrath of the sun or the initial coolness associated with the inevitable arrival of…

My first Broadway Show!!

I just watched my very first broadway show (Thoughts of a Colored Man) and it was poignant, poetic and beautiful . This is my new favorite New York minute.

Spontaneity is fun; like most things, there are benefits of carelessness up until it becomes a disadvantage but that conclusion should not be drawn too quickly.

a self-care edition

I didn't realize just how much I missed making self-care blogs till I wrote this! We all need time to unwind, relax and do things that make us look forward to the next thing.

road trip…

Driving that far makes you realize how much *mystery land* is around. I didn’t even realize how huge New York is, like there so much emphasis on Manhattan, Brooklyn, and some other places but not the other…

In an Age of Suspicion, Where is the love?

do you notice that kids don’t care about who they’re building sandcastles or throwing ball with? What’s important to them is that they’re playing. When people get older, they begin to see a fragmented society…
