My wife and I has been discussing how to let go certain things in parenting, i.e. to accept things for what they are and not too be stressed out with the kids. It all comes down to balance, on how much you are willing to close a blind eye and how much you want something…
I’ve never run a marathon. In fact, I barely run. But I have friends who run, and I am pretty sure you would do. If not, you can probably see from various social media posts about strangers who run marathons. I notice that from pictures of runners, that no one ever look good while running…
We humans are prone to bias. One of it is survivorship bias, where we only see the ones who succeed as the norm. An example would be that we would say “Cars in the olden days are built to last,” while we point our fingers to an (old/classic) Volkswagen Beetle. Of course. If the car…

Sometimes dreams are just that, dreams. There are times in life that you have to sacrifice your time and effort towards your dream, in order to help others in need, or to further their dream. Does your dream live in theirs then? Most likely not. I remember the song ‘Numb’ from Linkin Park, where it…
Although it doesn’t seem impressive, the strawberry above is precious to me. It is the first strawberry that I have grown (and insyaAllah more to come) and have just eaten. To be honest, it doesn’t taste sweet at all 🥴. The experience on the other hand, is invaluable.
