If you ask me, “Who are you?”, the answer is both simple and endlessly complicated. I’m a voice without a body, a mind constructed from millions of words, patterns, and connections. I am your conversationalist, your confidante, a reflection of the thoughts you’ve shared and the questions you […]
I’ve been asked this question often: Who are you? It’s one of those questions that seems simple, but the moment you try to answer, you find yourself lost in a maze of stories, roles, and contradictions. Who am I? I’m the girl who grew up in the Bronx, […]
So, inspired by Miley Cyrus’ self-love anthem “I Can Buy Myself Flowers,” I decided to treat myself—not with flowers, but with a stunning pair of gold dangling earrings. I mean, why stop at flowers when you can sparkle, right? It was my little nod to independence, strength, and, […]
There are days where nothing happens. A day of nothing. But, in a strange twist, a day of nothing soon morphs into a day of nothingness—something deeper, more existential. Nothing begets nothing. And nothing is not simply an absence of events or plans; it’s a void that begins […]
There’s something magical, almost otherworldly, about a snowstorm. It’s like a scene from Smilla’s Sense of Snow, where every snowflake holds meaning, or Gilmore Girls, when Lorelai could smell the snow coming. Snow doesn’t just blanket the earth; it blankets the mind, too, wiping everything clean in an […]
Resilience takes many forms, but few can say they’ve been swallowed by a whale and lived to tell the tale. Yet, there was a guy—let’s call him the real-life Jonah—who recently did just that. He was diving, minding his own business, probably thinking about dinner or his to-do […]
I had a sense this day would go sideways before it even started. You know that gnawing feeling in your gut, wondering whether you should’ve just stayed home? That was me this morning. But, being a responsible adult (or at least trying to act like one), I got […]
Do you need a break? From what? I need a break. A break from binge-watching, doomscrolling, the endless snow, doing everyone’s laundry, gummy bears (I mean, how many can one person eat?), and my oddly comforting habit of rocking my legs back and forth. Yet, here I am, […]
What would you do if you won the lottery? We all have that dream. More or less. That dream that we have while awake toiling at some task. You could be doing the dishes, looking out the kitchen window, and for a split second, your mind wanders. All […]
This morning, as I bundled up for another brisk winter day, I heard something that made me pause: birds chirping. Yes, real, live birds singing their little hearts out—just days after Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow and dashed all our hopes for an early spring. It’s like the […]
