I've never felt as empowered and justified as I did this past Monday afternoon. This past Monday afternoon was spent at a Korean fried chicken joint because the cafe next door was packed. The people that accompanied me were my mom, my cousin from Korea, and her husband, a recently graduated seminary student. My cousin… Continue reading The last resort that became a second chance – 45/100

Pretty much a perfect day – 41/100
Today was a perfect day. It started yesterday. I had pumped my bike tires and gotten my gear out and ready so I can get going without too much thinking. I got a decent amount of sleep. That's the best, I'm realizing more and more. I went on my bike ride to the beach, riding… Continue reading Pretty much a perfect day – 41/100
You are your greatest asset and surround yourself with good people – 23/100
My mom asked me a couple weeks ago if I ever thought of my FAH (first adult heartbreak). I thought a second and replied, No. That is one of the most refreshing and reflective moments I've had in a while. No. No, I'm not broken over the heartbreak. No, I'm not dwelling on the past.… Continue reading You are your greatest asset and surround yourself with good people – 23/100

He came up to the dining table and we started talking... I felt obligated in a way to… Continue reading A moment to adhere – 19/100
Excerpt from a letter to my dad – 17/100
Dear Dad, I don't think I'm ready to write this letter. I think there are still many things to process. But every time I drift off in my mind, I always come back to the thought that this letter needs to be written - to you. It comes up almost every day. And I haven't… Continue reading Excerpt from a letter to my dad – 17/100
One of the most frustrating experiences in my life: Talking money with my mom – 13/100
I never feel as helpless, infuriated, and frustrated as when I talk about finances with my mom. We randomly talked today during breakfast - I asked her what her fears were. She shared they were being terminally sick and in pain. She asked me, and I replied, not doing what I was created to do. She… Continue reading One of the most frustrating experiences in my life: Talking money with my mom – 13/100
