As I reached my target last month of writing 100 pieces on Medium, I’ve moved into a more relaxed mode.

I say pieces, as opposed to articles because when I set off on this exciting journey, I never imagined I would ever write poetry.

Writing poetry online was never on…

I love food
I like to eat it
but I really
don’t know
what to write
about it
If you are a foodie
and like to see the
food that I see
You can follow me
on Twitter
where I’ll
tweet some
delicious
delicacies. 😘

I like…

If I don’t read your articles after you have read mine, there can only be two reasons for that:

• I don’t have time but I hope to read them soon. I want to read your work because I enjoy it and it adds value. …

You hurt me.
They say,
No, I didn’t.
I felt hurt.
Well, I didn’t
do it.
I felt hurt by you.
They say,
you perceived it.
Look — 
if you feel hurt
by someone’s actions,
that’s it.
You were hurt.
Don’t defend it.
It is your feeling. …

There was a time in my life when reaching a crossroads made me anxious. It felt like a dead-end and I’d think, “Oh no, I have to do something quickly!”

I feared the unknown. I was afraid to sit with my emotions. …

The pandemic
was exhausting,
stressful and annoying.

It still is,
but life
must go on.

We are weary
and low in energy
but we must move on.

How?
One day
at a time.

Don’t worry
about tomorrow,
for tomorrow

as the Lord
said, has enough
worries of its own.
