In a world of noise and uncertainty, I choose to treat myself with radical acceptance, others with inspirational inclusivity, and adversity with strategic stoicism.

Let's build something resilient and positive.
Today is the day you don't trust anything announced on the Internet or media. Wait... Isn't that every day?

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time."

Happy World Sleep Day everyone! Hope y'all can catch up on the sleep you lost from our anachronistic practice of "saving time".

I'll be celebrating by getting a few extra hours to relax and temporarily disconnect from the world.

"You can't wake up if you don't fall asleep."

Why did I choose durian in my handle?

The durian is the King of Fruits, but it's very existence is divisive: you hate it or love it.

Spikes and odor make it hard to get close. Get past that, there's a sweetness.

Simultaneously ugly, beautiful, dangerous, and desired.

I identify with the durian.

Been procrastinating on adulting lately(e.g. taxes) and things are piling up. Time to activate serious productivity mode.

As Black History month comes to a close, I wanted to share a quote that really resonated with me:

"We must never forget that Black History is American history. The achievements of African Americans have contributed to our nation's greatness."

Finally found some time to write my profile bio with my values:

How I treat myself: With radical self-acceptance

How I treat others: With inspirational inclusivity

How I respond to adversity: With strategic stoicism

Radical self-acceptance: I embrace myself (flaws and all) without judgment nor comparison. I’m a work in progress, always growing and changing. Everyone struggles, so I’ll treat myself with compassion. Focusing on the present, I strive to be my best self in each moment.

This is how I treat myself.

Starting the day off with a nostalgic combination of spam and kimchi on rice. What's your nostalgia breakfast? #gochujang_spam #two-sisters-kimchi #rice #filipino #korean #breakfast
