come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
More than sitting in front of a desk for hours,
conversing an hour with a scholar goes a long way.
The line between the known and the unknown becomes clearer,
And the walk across continents of worlds are faster.
A duel of minds to weave a thread of philosophy,
one in which the darkness and light imprints a new pattern of thoughts.

A courage to ask for what I dream of,
a determination of what I deserve,
and a diligence to make the wish come true.
Also for wisdom in the hopes that
what I seek aligns with what is right,
and that more of love, trust, and safety
to be experienced by people nearby.
These are what I ask for.

It takes a keen eye to see the design in mind.
The grace of the finished work is a testament to many failed versions in the past.
An action without the vision rattles like an empty tuna can.
Basking under the sun, the occasional rests saves the soul.
It’s when the chipping towards the hopes,
when the heart glows even in the darkness.

Thank you for seeing me as who I am.
Without the prejudice, the rumor, and the superficial aesthetics,
to meet a person at the most fundamental level,
to be fun, trusting, and joyful was freeing.
I’ll remember. And I’ll pay forward.

Live at ease as you are.
There’s no more need to pretend.
Do what you feel comfortable with,
Do what feels right,
Do what makes your heart beat hard.
Life lives on right here, right now.

Let’s try it again
even if it has become a spindle of black thread,
let’s keep weaving our stories.
A process of evolution over iterations of versions,
before we realize, we’ll find wings behind.
Let’s keep weaving our stories,
to materialize the dreams and hopes.

In retrospect,
apathy was the only way to cope
with what was intolerable, beyond the limit.
When energy in every fiber of nerves were spent
while the machine kept on churning,
there was nowhere to turn for help,
and the fire before our eyes kept flickering,
so I knew I had to hold the line with all I had.
After all that has happened,
somehow I live yet another day to tell the tale.
This scratch of apathy is a reminder of the past
and a fragment of the reason why I need to reach my goal.
5.18.2025
Come on, up we go. Let’s get up.
I thought we’d made good progress so far,
but the mountain is far larger than I thought a minute ago.
Don’t you worry. Just keep your eyes on the goal.
And remember the feedback.
Thank them for their teaching.
For it guides you to the rightful path.

I delight in moment like this,
when my thoughts align in harmony.
To have started with the right kind of cause,
and find myself in the company
of those I admire and applaud,
and be available to partake in the symphony.
5.16.2025
Hey, I’m glad you are here.
I see the long tunnel of darkness you’ve come through.
Thank you for holding on, in spite of it all.
I am here now, thanks to you.
Let’s cherish the light, the sunrise, and the sunset.
And when you are ready, if you want, let’s focus on bringing the light and refuge to those that may need them.
