I am following the eight weeks of PB 10K running program from the Gerak app ; Gerak (Indonesian language) means move in English. So in this program each day I have an assignment to do, whether it's easy running 25 minutes, or long running of 50 minutes, or stride practicing or rest. Lately I've been … Continue reading Rest

Sugar
I just realized a few days ago that most bottled drinks are highly sugar-y and that the sugar amount mentioned in the packages are often only a third or half of the total sugar amount. So for example: a bottled green tea with apple flavour of 500 ml, it says that it has 20 g … Continue reading Sugar
Run!
According to Strava, today I have my personal best in 10k. I believe it. It doesn't matter that my stats are still a far cry from breaking the National record, for me to be able to finish strong is an ultimate win! Cheers, Karin Sabrina
Thoughts
Finally I am able to "notice" my thoughts... I can think about my thinking and not get carried away with it. I wasn't making stories or drama from it. It's liberating actually, I can talk to myself about noticing my thoughts. So when my mind said things like: I think This fledgling small business will … Continue reading Thoughts
Learn
Do we really have to be crushed with a severe heart broken, then... And only then, we're open for new lessons ? Karin
Sixteen

But 8 years ago, I was not allowed to be your mother again. Dear girl, you've grown up. I forgive the past, … Continue reading Sixteen

I lost it, I don't have that 'unconditional' trust anymore to anyone even to those who I vowed to be the dearest to me. And it's a good feeling to realize that I've grown, I've changed. For so long I gave my trust to others, so they can decide what's best for me, they can … Continue reading Changing
Love day
We celebrate our day today. Not a fancy celebration, no dining out, no cakes, no presents, just a simple "happy love day darling", in the morning. On this day, some years ago, love chose us. We were full of scars from our previous relationships, still are .. and perhaps we will forever be in our … Continue reading Love day
Problems
I'm good with problems now .. not because my problems are so tiny, so it's easy to manage; I'm on good terms with problems because I know now that problems will be close by, as long as I live, and I need to accept that. I don't mind these long strings of problems. It's true … Continue reading Problems
Ms. Cassie
The more a subject matters to you, the harder it is to find a story you want to tell about it. Domestic abuse is a very close matter to me, I myself is and will forever be in a healing journey from the bitter past. Today I read an article about Ms. Cassie and P … Continue reading Ms. Cassie
