Thoughts, inspiration, balance… and randomness
Yes, watch what they do, not what they say. My dad used to tell me this in reference to boys. I didn't believe him at first.... so I ignored it pretty much for the majority of my dating-eligible life. You see, my witty brain accepted words (especially loving and complimentary ones) as tangible things... meaning, … Continue reading Watch What They Do, Not What They Say
Unless you've been under a rock, a horrific and unfathomable thing happened on Friday in the Connecticut school shooting. I'm not going to belabor this tragedy... I think everyone with a heart can sufficiently say they are broken over the news and feel for the families. What I think has been most interesting since this … Continue reading We Be Human
Words. Positive? Negative? Depends. Does one word matter? It could... Words matter. What you say, when you say it, how you say it. Why you say it. Who you say it to. Which words you choose. It all matters. They can be informative, instructional, funny, sad, upsetting, brash.... the end result of a word or words … Continue reading They’re Just Words

I am probably one of the more judgmental people on this planet. I admit it. I always have been critical of behavior, choices, circumstances of others... and while I secretly and internally judged, I usually brushed off that judgment with, "they can do whatever they want, but I certainly would never do that." In fact, … Continue reading Self-Realizations 4: I’m a Judge Judy

I think no matter how old you are, you still get that same butterfly feeling when you have a crush on someone. … Continue reading Butterflies
This trip, anyhow. I am in a hotel in Singapore, hanging out until my 6am flight back to LA via Narita, Japan. As I mentioned previously, I have been to Malaysia several times, and each time, I learn something new... about myself, about my family, about life. Here's a little recap: Trip 1: Age 18 … Continue reading And So It Ends…
"What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet..." - Juliet, Romeo and Juliet And by the words of Shakespeare, so too does Thanksgiving, by any other name (or in this case, by any other country) would taste as delicious. Thanksgiving is my favorite … Continue reading Thanksgiving Melayu
