"Living Each Single Day"

Recently, I felt a tad disappointed but after writing down my feelings and expressing it out to someone, I felt a little better like I am willing to let it go. But my perception doesn't change. Sometimes I feel a little torn. I've read about other people who embark on their spiritual journey day in day out until one day, they started to question themselves what's the whole point of all this? They still feel disappointed. Feel unworthy. So on and so forth. But at the end of this journey called life, it's not just about you. We have been blessed with the kindness of people, and most of the time, they asked for no return of their kindheartedness. The onus is therefore on us to pay it forward to other people. At the lowest point of our lives, when we feel that the things that we do seem to be pointless, from one disappointment to another, from one bad news to another, it's easy to feel like what's the whole point of life, really. But life is never meant to be easy. ...

Like the recent live action anime and web dramas that I stumbled upon on the internet or through social media. But I try my best to mix up a little with some things that I hope will benefit others too here, like my recent fitness post. I used to rant here a lot in my younger days but as I grow older, my focus is mostly on self betterment, whether physical, mental and health. It's a journey that I am always on for as long as I am still capable of doing so. This morning, I was watching a recorded Zoom webcast and in a past week, another recorded web conference where people could post questions to qualified individuals. And also in one of the IG stories too. And then to think about how there are so many people there who are conflicted in their thoughts and actions making them to wonder if they are ever doing the right things. Adding on to that, they also feel rather depleted and lost ...

I recently watched a Korean web drama that had been hyped up to  be the first Korean BL drama and I would straight up tell you BL means boy's love. It's supposed to be a big deal since it was the first mainstream Korean drama that would depict two boys/young men falling in love. The main actor was a pretty seasoned young actor while the other main younger actor was a fresh one coming from a popular reality show called Produce 101 where they seek talents to join the various entertainment industries. So this was his first main role and I tell ya, he would go very far in his career coz he was so good in it. It was a strange decision to choose this as his first starring role coz you know Korea is pretty much conservative and he could suffer a backlash in his career just when he was about to start it. I guess it goes both ways. This genre is getting popular because of all the young girls who call themselves fujoshis..lol...so it may be a good quick start to popularity. So the show...

I was recommended a video recently on Youtube (besides Seal videos...shoo cute!) and it featured an inter-racial relationship of a young married couple. It piqued my interest and I wasn't the only one because it already had views of more than 150,000. I mean inter-relationships are not new and there are so many unique ones that I come across on youtube when they did vlogs, like really, love doesn't pigeon hole you into meeting someone who are just like you and who look like you too.  From the thumbnail, it showed a Malay girl in hijab and a Chinese/Korean guy. Her name is Nina and he is Hayden. Nothing uncommon these days, like I said, but to be honest why I was interested was how the title included 'Body Positivity' as well because she was of a bigger size girl married to a typical averaged built guy. I thought he was Korean at first, lol..but he was a British Born Chinese while the girl was Malaysian. I am actually happy that people are very open minded or th...

For the month of June, I started the month with planning ahead the things I wanna do this month, break it down to weekly tasks and scheduling them into the daily planning. I also try to be actively engaged with each task and with minimal distractions. Yeah at times it can get rather dreary and I need to take a break like when I feel the motivation waning but I will come back to it later. Recently I have been catching up on religious teachings, not so much on the technicals but rather the meaning behind some prayers and learning of those that are useful to us and our loved ones. I won't be turning this into a religious post but rather, how religion, whether Islam, Christianity or Buddhism, there's an overall goodness to them when they teach us about life in general, our relationship with people and also ourselves.  For 30 days during the holy month of the Islamic calendar, I paid $15 for daily lessons that would cover each day. Just today, I was only at day 22 but the fastin...

The fan is my best friend after every workout I am going to attempt to write this blogpost without a draft so I hope I don't ramble much. Anyway, it has been a long and boring work from home and to know that I won't be able to be in office even after the Circuit Breaker ends on 1st of June, we are in this for the long haul. But then again, we won't be able to resume the kind of work life we have always been used to prior to the circuit breaker. In order to prevent a second wave of the pandemic, which may come stronger if we let our guard down, after the ending of CB, it will open up in phases; 1, 2 & 3. Phase 1 will immediately begin on June 2nd onwards and as to when it will end, most likely in the mid of June, pending announcements. So one of the things I missed is group fitness like my weekly Strong by Zumba. Recently I found out they changed the name to Strong Nation. Actually I don't know why this was not done earlier coz it's nothing like Zum...
