I strive to prioritize self-care by dedicating time to activities that bring me happiness, like drawing, writing, and sharing my reflections on this blog. Acknowledging the importance of self-care, I make an effort to engage in it whenever I feel overwhelmed or stressed. It’s vital for me to focus on this because it contributes to my overall balance and well-being.

Historical Figure
I admire Mahatma Gandhi because he believed in using peaceful methods to create significant change. His teachings on truth, justice, and treating everyone equally remain incredibly relevant today. He was a strong leader who genuinely cared about helping others and promoting fairness and justice. Although he lived a long time ago, his ideas about peace and equality continue to inspire people worldwide, including me.
Cartoon First Crush
One crush I remember well is He-Man. It might sound a little strange since he was just a cartoon character, but I really liked his strength and muscular build. Looking back now, it’s funny, but I was really into him back then.
Countries to See
There are many countries that I would love to go visit, but I would have to say thatthe top five countries that I would like to visit are:
- Japan
- Italy
- Rome
- Jamaica
- Ireland
Patience is Golden
I believe that one of my best qualities is my patience. I work with kids every day, and being patient and kind is very important when I’m with them. I’ve noticed that many people today seem to lack patience, and I think this is something we need to change. I take pride in my ability to remain calm and patient, especially when things become challenging. I feel that showing patience not only helps the kids I work with but also sets a good example for everyone around me. It’s a small but powerful way to make the world a better place.
Summer Fun Time
My favorite season is summer. Summer has always been special to me because I celebrate my birthday during this time. I used to visit my grandmother’s house frequently in the summer. I also love to swim and enjoy going to the beach. The warm weather is another reason why I adore summer.
Finding Harmony
In the quest for a life that’s good,
Mental well-being stands where it should.
Through challenges faced with grace and might,
We find our balance, our inner light.
Strong relationships, a vital thread,
With friends and family, our hearts are fed.
Trust and kindness, a supportive embrace,
Create a haven, a true, safe space.
Personal growth, an endless climb,
Chasing our dreams, one step at a time.
Learning and changing, we seek to explore,
With each new challenge, we open new doors.
Fulfilling work that speaks to our soul,
Bringing purpose and joy, making us whole.
With passion ignited, we rise and we strive,
In this harmonious life, we truly thrive.
Quality time
The person I spend the most time with is my niece. She is still young and likes to hang out with her Auntie, and I really enjoy that. We both love making art, so that’s what we do when we’re together.
We often draw and color. Sometimes we pick a theme for our art, like animals, nature, or our favorite cartoon characters. My niece loves using colorful markers and glitter, and I like showing her new art techniques and materials. It’s always fun and happy when we create together.
Unplug
When I feel overwhelmed with work or personal life, I know it’s time to unplug. One of the activities that helps me unwind is drawing while listening to music. Engaging in these two activities simultaneously allows my mind to stop overthinking, providing me with a sense of peace for a while.
Additionally, I find peace in nature. During times when I need to unplug, I’ve taken trips to Joshua Tree, and the experience has been incredibly refreshing. If I can’t make it to Joshua Tree, I visit a local park, find a quiet bench, and simply observe the world around me.
Recognizing the importance of unplugging has been a learning process for me. Since realizing its significance, I’ve made a conscious effort to prioritize this practice in order to prevent feeling overwhelmed.
My Legacy
I want to create a legacy of kindness and care, and to make a positive difference in the world. I hope people remember me as someone who always helped others, spread love and happiness, and made a real impact in the lives of those around me. My goal is to inspire others to be their best selves and to work together to make the world a better place.
Balance
I’ve been trying to find a good balance between my work and home life, which hasn’t been easy. My work has often taken over my personal time, both physically and mentally.
About five to six years ago, I found a passion for drawing, which has helped me set clear boundaries between work and personal life. I make time to draw at least once or twice a week. I’ve also been focusing more on my personal life. While it hasn’t always been easy, I’m definitely happier now than before. I’m committed to improving this balance and growing both personally and professionally.
Leadership and Personal Growth
In my professional life, I view myself as a confident leader who makes tough decisions and guides my team toward success. Leadership feels natural for me.
Outside of work, however, I tend to be more of a follower due to my desire to please others and avoid conflict, which often leads me to neglect my own needs. I’m actively working on overcoming this habit and learning to prioritize my well-being.
I’ve seen positive progress in putting myself first, but I recognize there’s always more room for growth, and I’m committed to continuous improvement.
Embracing Change
The one small improvement I would make in my life is to be more accepting of change. I believe I am getting better at this, as it’s something I have been working on for years. Even though I have seen progress, I still struggle with it at times. I need to remind myself that I will grow if I accept change, and even though it may be tough at times, I will become a better person for it.
The Essence of Freedom
Freedom to me means the ability to make choices and live according to my values and beliefs without interference or oppression from others. It means having the autonomy to pursue my goals and dreams, express myself freely, and live without fear of discrimination or persecution. Freedom also means having access to fundamental human rights such as education, healthcare, and equal opportunities for all individuals. Ultimately, freedom is the foundation of a just and equitable society where everyone has the chance to thrive and reach their full potential.
Live Performance
I find it amusing that this came up today. The last live performance I attended was last night—my niece’s school dance performance. I had a wonderful time watching her dance with her friends and classmates.
