Rest in peace to the icon and legend Jane Birkin. I was so starstruck to meet her and see her sing in person, in 2009. Jane forever. “When you start recognising that you’re having fun, life can be delightful.” Jane Birkin
June 2023 Favorites
Happy end of June! I read some great books this month. I just started Teach Yourself to Live by C.G.L. Du Cann. One I took a particular liking to was Four Thousand Weeks–Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman. It made me reflect a lot on how I perceive time. The truth is, we allContinue reading “June 2023 Favorites”

Optional
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was on a coaching call this week, and I heard something that hit me, deep. On these coaching calls, people share things they are struggling with to be coached live. I don’t remember what was being shared, but I do remember the coach’s response: “Shame is optional.” I found that toContinue reading “Optional”

While I may not be able to recite their names by heart, their faces stay with me. I pray for their families and extend my gratitude to all who have served and lostContinue reading “Memorial Day”
