Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you? Hmm... Does Duolingo count as a playtime? I have been playing it for 772 consecutive days. Perhaps the next question is : does it work? Can we really learn a foreign language through playing with Duolingo? It's a complicated question, but I'll say … Continue reading Playtime

Pause
Sometimes the life that I've been holding to, shatters, no announcement, no symptoms, it just shatters. After it happens several times, now I know that it's a great reminder to pause. It seems so unimportant - to pause-, but it really is. Let's take time to stop for a while, to not entangle into thoughts, … Continue reading Pause
Half Marathon
I did a half marathon last Saturday, I completed 21 K in 3 hours 8 minutes. Still a galaxy afar from Eliud Kipchoge time record. But I finished it, and I am so damn proud of my self, of these beautiful legs, of this body of mine. It was my very first half marathon and … Continue reading Half Marathon
Reverse
What if I reverse all ( or at the very least: most ... ) of the negative thoughts regarding my financial status? My salary is enough. I can pay my debts. A tiny bit of it every single time, but eventually I'll pay it off; all of it. I can also make savings: daily, weekly, … Continue reading Reverse
A runner
What is your favorite form of physical exercise? I am a runner, yes still slow AF, but I am a runner! In this pic I ran 10 K, and finished in 70 minutes. I have my eyes set on a half marathon next year. Cheers, Karin Sabrina

I'm still struggling in so many aspects in my life, battling with countless demons and more than often I don't know … Continue reading The work
Hollow
It's you again. The person who is capable of neverending hate. Yes, of course we cross the path once in a blue moon. But I have no wish to greet you. I have my sanity to keep and I want to have a peaceful life. No, I will not respond to your poisonous attack. I … Continue reading Hollow
Non-peace
Forgive yourself for not being at peace, the moment you completely accept your non-peace, your non-peace is transmuted into peaceEckhart Tolle Perhaps it's because my aging self, or perhaps because I am too tired to not admitting my not-at-peace-mind, I was stunned when I read the quote above. Why I often make things more complicated … Continue reading Non-peace
Harmony
What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? My needs to say whatever I want to say whenever, wherever. To keep meticulously the wrongdoings of others to me. Karin Sabrina
To-do list
What are you most worried about for the future? It's funny that this question is coming at the very time I don't want to worry anymore about life. I even write on my to do list just that, I actually write: today I want to : not overthinking about everything; I want to remember that … Continue reading To-do list
