I didn’t sleep last night. This isn’t strange for me at the beginning of September, as I am sure is the case for many in the teaching education across the globe. Back to school nerves creep in (yes, they still happen at the age of 31!) and the sudden panic of whether or not you can remember how to…
I cannot share what I don’t have. There are two things I don’t have and several others to consider:

In my first post I shared that I commuted two hours a day to earn a Computer Science degree from the University at Buffalo (one hour there and one back).
One of these commutes still sticks out to me: I was driving on the highway during heavy fog. If I was alone on the…

Watch my TEDx Talk and allow yourself to create the life you’ve always dreamed about.
It’s a subject that not many people want to talk about, but is critical to think about when planning for your future.

Dear Mateja
I never asked you for any advice on anything and I never will after reading this. By the way I don’t give a crab about what people think of my writing and for the same reason as you : I write by necessity.
But that said I just can’t shut up when I read this. What could be more gratifying…
Hi Martha. Thanks for dropping by. I think you have to highlight the line and then there’s a pen symbol and a dialogue balloon that would come up and prompt you to respond directly.
I actually have great friends back home. But trying something new before scares me because I was already comfortable with my situation. Now that…
So true, Benjamin P. Hardy!! I think that people (mostly men) count on willpower because there are certain things they believe they should do. Even if it contradicts with what they really want.
We tend to live in a patterns created by our ancestors who taught us what is right and wrong and what we should want from life…

The timing of her comments is where the hurt magnified. While I would like to believe that her intention is not bad (which is stating what she saw), they truly hurt me because of how she repeatedly said it and how she scrutinized me closely.
However, I could’ve answered back to her bitterly based on how she conveyed the…

It was a dream come true when we shifted from India to Seattle. Full of excitement…
Here on Earth we hear echoes and we think it’s music. What if everything we perceive was just the distant shock wave of something much more profound and brilliant happening in multi-dimensions? Stop for a moment and imagine how that might blow our consciousness? What festival of unknown, beyond sound and…

Maybe they listened to that one song ‘clap your hands if you want to’ and they were like this is the concept! Ah! We can have people clap once, or keep pressing this button and let’s make magic virtual confetti 🎉 happen as they press so it entices them to keep pushing.

I’d say it’s definitely something where it isn’t perfect per se, like those mismatching stones here and there, but I am all sorts of excitement for this venture.
I don’t know about you but I don’t don’t get claps. I’m a random person so it’s no rhyme or reason clapping pandemonium. Just know the randomness is just how I work…

Martha your post made me reminisce the time when I was still working back in my country. During lunchtime, all those who are available,sat down around a dining table and laid down all our food. This gave us a chance to know each other more and treated each other as family. Oh, you just don’t know how much we cried when we parted ways. I love…
