which leads to us think what everyone else is thinking? but how can we read different books when the bestseller list is conveniently placed at my fingertips by the algorithm? how can i not consume the same media as everyone around me in today's day and age? why would i go out of the way when at the end, i will stumble upon something that someone has already read?

we learned about this idea of "cabinet of collections" in one of my classes in uni so i decided to dig up my cabinet of collections. cabinet of collections to me signifies the things that we unknowingly collect. Before we used to collect things because they were rare or unusual. I believe it is the things that are so common for us now but will be unusual or rare in the future and we have just not...

well the idea of being original is flawed in itself because everyone is inspired or influenced by someone or something. no one invented something just like that. so why do you have to chase this idea of being original. you can't be. you will always be a reflection of your past, a mirror of your present and path to your future. everything about you comes from all the people around you - the ones yo...

a lot of things inspired me to talk about trying to find the balance between feeling guilty about the privileges that more than 40 percent of the population in this world doesn't have yet still wanting more. i can't help but think about this everyday. It is not like I am asking for the moon, i am asking things that are the bare minimum for others. the things i want, i don't have but its not like i...

letting go—it’s one of the hardest things we’ll ever do. Whether it’s a person, a dream, or a memory, it feels impossible to release something that’s left its mark on us. But here’s the thing: letting go isn’t about forgetting; it’s about accepting what’s already gone. this is me trying to learn the art of letting go with a mix of honesty and humor - assessing why do we hold on so tightly? how can...

Throughout our entire life, being alone has often been portrayed as such a big crime and often commonly misplaced with the word being lonely (which is also not wrong either). spending time with yourself can be the ultimate act of self-love. its important for us to understand that solitude isn’t a weakness but a superpower, how learning to be your own best friend can transform your life, and why se...
