    Context is For Queens

    November 11, 2024
    Life and Times

    Humans are stubborn, willful little creatures. We’re relentlessly determined to understand the nature of, well, everything. But as much as we act like cosmic detectives, we don’t have the skill, the right tools, or even a faint idea of what the mystery is we’re trying to solve. Sure, we can keep pretending we can wrap…

    Life and Times

    Why We Should Embrace Our Differences In the world we live in today, it’s tempting to try and force people into cookie-cutter boxes based on their race, gender, or sexual orientation. But, we must remind ourselves that every person has their own unique set of circumstances, experiences, and perspective on the world. Only by embracing…

    The Road Worth Taking

    November 4, 2024
    Life and Times

    As a child, I often spoke out of turn and perhaps it was only because I had so much to say and a desperate need to be heard. I spent so many years speaking in circles, never able to turn off the roundabout in my mind, wondering which road was worth taking. Eventually I chose…

  • Music, My Magical Companion

    October 30, 2024
    Life and Times

    Music is a magical extension of the human soul. Without it, we’d all just slowly wither away into the unbearable void of silence, or worse, be left alone with our thoughts. With it, however, we have the unparalleled power to transform our minds into a war zone of emotions. If you want to wallow in…

    The Mindless Things

    October 28, 2024
    Life and Times

    Too many nights, I find myself wide awake. Most of them are spent mindlessly mulling over pursuits that, on the surface, are the intellectual equivalent of scrolling through memes that fail to amuse me. Somewhere in the back of my mind, there’s a small, tired voice gently reminding me that maybe this isn’t the best…

    Weight of the Words

    October 25, 2024
    Life and Times

    My life as a writer is inundated constantly by mental snapshots, a slideshow of potential genius that slowly morphs into something like a PowerPoint of existential dread. The words I usually dodge, unfortunately, are the juiciest bits, the recurring nightmares that gnaw at my soul every morning. The echoes of my unfulfilled past life make…

    Musings of a Frustrated Creative

    October 24, 2024
    Life and Times

    I must confess, I’ve made—and broken—the solemn vow to do something creative every day more times than I care to count. “I’ll write a little bit each day,” I say to myself. Yet, like clockwork, after a solid week of productivity, I’ll hit that inevitable wall. It’s not for lack of time, either. Some days,…

    Is Something Being Underrated a Good Thing?

    Life and Times

    I’ve been thinking a lot about the word underrated lately. It’s one of those terms people love to throw around when they’re talking about their favorite obscure band or that indie movie nobody knows about. It’s what hipsters say to basically mean, “I’m special because I like things no one else appreciates.” But what does…

    Raising the Floor of Humanity Through Words

    Life and Times

    In the not-so-distant past, I was a digital marketer. That’s a title that might sound glamorous if you’re into buzzwords and the thrill of chasing after the ever-elusive SEO trends. Indeed, for over a decade, I fancied myself as a blogger extraordinaire, tirelessly diving headfirst into the murky waters of long-tail keywords and emerging search…

    Why I Believe in Infinite Realities

    Life and Times

    Do you ever get the sense that life is one big, elaborate sitcom? Are you just waiting for the laugh track to kick in so that you know at least someone else is in on this joke we call life? If you’re like me, you might find yourself pondering the absurdity of existence at 3…
