#235 the last night of my 20s
Last day of my 20s June 4th. 2022 was the last night of my 20s. It didn’t hit me until my best friend sent me a video from my 27th birthday. I couldn’t believe that three years has already passed by. Life is such a beautiful yet frightening experience. It goes by so fast. It…
#183 An Eid Memory
I want to pray for the people of Palestine and Israel. I pray for peace on both sides. I pray that all of humanity starts looking at all the similarities they have with one another than their differences. Only then can we be more compassionate and accepting. I wrote three different blogs for this week…

"Verily, everything has two ends and a middle. If you hold one of the ends, the other will be skewed. If you hold the middle, the two ends will be balanced. You must seek the middle ground in all things." There has been a recurring theme in my life the last couple of days, balance.…

A couple weeks before Yama's life ended...he did some strange things. Yama decided to visit all of his loved ones...even family that he rarely spoke to. He visited his best friend and his god son out of nowhere. He just knocked on their door and said I just wanted to come by and say hello.…
Yama: Chapter 13

Everyone thought he was hallucinating because once your liver is damaged ...hallucinations happen all the time. Yama went to the hospital three times to get detoxed. He would hallucinate for weeks until he was…
Yama: Chapter 4
12/16/12 continued to be a living nightmare. Not the one with the zombies and monster...it was its own version. It started to engrave in my heart..Yama is dead. Yama is dead. Yama is dead. I would escape to my room and turn on my little heater and sit in front of it. The house was…
#110 slow down
Slowing down is something I have been trying to implement in my life. At times, I am just going through the motions. Sometimes I even feel like that with writing for the blog...I just go through the motions and I don’t even go back to reread or edit. Usually it’s because I am short on…
#82 Let’s Go For Walk
I’ve gotten into the habit of going on these walks every day. I really love going on early morning walks and they’re not very long. Usually it’s about 30 minutes. Sometimes my mom drags me to the park and that takes about an hour to walk. But I don’t usually like going to the park.…
