In recent years, there have been massive changes everywhere, as countries struggled to combat with the worsening Covid-19 situation. In the mainstream media, it was claimed that Covid-19 was a “novel” coronavirus, in which an experimental vaccine appears to be the only cure & long-term solution to eradicate the virus and save the masses. This

Recently, I discovered my fear of rejection lurking within me. For the longest time, I wasn’t consciously aware that this fear existed within me. It was one of those shadow parts of me that I never openly acknowledged or accepted. Instead, this fear was often buried deep within me, treated as if it never existed.

I have came a long way to learn how to receive from others. For many years, I didn’t know how to receive from others. I didn’t know that this was an issue to begin with. I always thought it was perfectly normal to give much more than I receive. I thought this was how I

Recently, I started reflecting on how certain universal laws of truth have unfolded in my life. In particular, the law of grace, which essentially means “ask and you will receive”. At first glance, it seems almost too good to be true. It is easy for skepticism to set in & dismiss everything as nonsensical. Are

For the past few weeks, I have been taking things very slowly. This is a huge contrast to my usual desire to accomplish as many tasks as possible, within a short span of time. Last month’s energies called me to slow down, rest & nourish my soul. I felt drawn to sit in silence multiple

As far as I am aware, suicide remains a taboo topic that few people like to explore. The act of committing suicide itself is unacceptable in the eyes of many people. It goes against their moral values to respect the sanctity of life. It reflects the weakness & vulnerabilities of the victim who ultimately chose
