We are often told of the infamous quotation, “money makes the world go round“, and we often see the powerful ways in real life or in media of how money can alter situations/people/businesses/lives, etc. But does it truly power the world? Do humans really have such little respect for themselves in the way that they…

Never out of bitterness
I told myself it was time to let go. To let go of the uncertainty, the expectations that were never going to happen, and the self-doubt. There might be many different ways of looking at this, but I’m making sure I’m making it clear which way this should be looked at. I didn’t do it…
How people living alone think (aka me)

So today, I was chatting up with a close friend about some pretty personal stuff and she mentions this “Reason, season, lifetime” poem that I should probably read. As I was reading this, some people came to my mind, but it was actually very difficult to think of specific people for each category. What worried…
Boston Bound.
I wish I could pass by this bridge more often, it looks so serene and utterly stunning. The road to was filled with excitement and anxiety, mostly because I had an exam the next day after the trip, but I wasn’t going to let that stop me. I was on a trip to Boston for…
