Therapy
It is not easy to go through therapy. Let me skip all the mental debates of whether or not we should go seek for help from a psychologist. That is a whole other chapter in itself. It takes a lot of courage to acknowledge that I have a mental illness and professional help will be

Fear of Traveling
As soon as I dipped my toes in the pool, with a chilling glass of champagne in one hand and a chocolate covered strawberry in another, I knew this was all worth it. A month before this moment, J booked our flights. “United? We are going to be flying with United?!” Not surprisingly, I started

Back On Track
It’s funny how my mind can be at its quietest moment in a noisy little coffee shop. If you pay attention, you can hear the symphony of espresso machine buzzing, glassware being struck by metal spoons, people laughing and chatting over the background music and the occasional car engine “vrooming” on the street outside.

Inner Peace
We were born with inner peace. I used to be fascinated by the forever changing clouds and would lay on the grass staring at the sky for hours. With the help of a silky bed sheet as cape and a chopstick as wond, I can be any powerful fairy imaginable. I used to be happy

Or even away from society where you can see injustice or crazy people everywhere? If you have, then where are you running to? A deserted Island with wifi and unlimited supplies

The Sound of Silence
I don’t know why I am so triggered by this comic. I can just sense the desperation behind each party’s waving hands. Is my depression kicking in again? I feel it knocking on the door. It will be another few weeks of darkness before I can catch a breath again sinking into the gloomy ocean

9 to 5
Two more hours to home time. Tick tock. One more day till the weekend. Tick tock. Just another cup of coffee to keep me awake. Let’s refresh the mailbox again to see if there is any new email popping up. Tick tock, tick tock. How much life and creativity is wasted in this 9 to
