Everyday Stories, Lived

  • You can spend the same hour differently

    Let it pass by while randomly doing anything but finishing nothing. You can let the hours pass while in the same chair (or even in your bed), scrolling the bottomless pit of a social media feed. Or, in the same period, you can be traveling from one place to another, meeting people along the way. Read more

  • Emails and how to get rid of them

    Yes, you’re right. My emails are piling up. I used to play the inbox-zero card. But there are just days when I don’t feel like checking them. So let them all pile up as if I am in rebellion against the emails bombarding my everyday life. Even those emails sent in the wee hours of Read more

    Some of us, admit it or not, vowed that we’ll change when we turn 30. With that, I mean that our lifestyle choices would be different now that we’re finally mature enough to know what should be done. We thought that becoming the responsible adult we ought to be would come naturally with age. But Read more

  • Where a lot of things is wasted

    In one of his daily devotions, Pastor David Sumrall emphasized that we should not embrace the habit of “just because there is an abundance, you can be wasteful.” And it reminds me of a book about how our manner of consumption has driven us to neglect to live a sustainable lifestyle.
