Serenade to the World
Take a minute to close your eyes. What is the first thing that comes to your mind? Do you think about something that makes you happy? Do you think about a loved one? Do you worry? Do you feel scared and lonely? Do you feel empowered? Do you think about the past? You most likely allow your mind to recede to the buzz of thoughts you were fidgeting in right before this. And that's okay. These stagnant moments in the world are meant to put a halt in time to reflect and sink into retrospection. Explore every angle of the spectrum of your emotions. Do whatever it is you've been meaning to get to. But most importantly, catch up with yourself and stop trying to race against the passage of time. Stop and lose yourself in nothingness. Allow yourself to do nothing. Break free from the constant pressure and expectations around you and do not feel bad for getting distracted. Feed your mind with these instances where the universe is openly giving you the privilege of extra time. Nourish your soul with these bountiful lapses. Detoxify your heart with forgiveness and love. Do nothing, because there is an endless horizon of something in nothingness.

Coronavirus Life
What will we be like after this? A real live sci-fi movie in our life time. Humanity is on the line. While “world leaders” having poker games with human chips. A dice roll for life? Is this a thining of the herd? Are we all being set up for an even bigger take down? What kind of sick magic trick is this?

New and Overwhelmed
After about thirty minutes of scrolling through Vocal, I am starting to remember why in the past I would leave and maybe take a nap instead, or go back to Netflix or YouTube. There is SO MUCH content here. There is so much content EVERYWHERE for that matter. There are so many political opinions, “how to's”, "top five's", or "why the latest movie was awful" or "amazing". What do I write about? What is MY story? WHAT DO I HAVE TO SHARE?!?!

Crossroads
Start writing... That’s what it tells me to do More along the lines of start thinking... The world is upside-down now, or at least on its ear pear-shaped... Everyone is scared now, or rather, most are scared in the first-world countries... Others are non-chalant... Many are hopeful... The rest might as well be sheep...

What About Me??
I have never been good at expressing myself. I sometimes find it extremely hard just to formulate one sentence describing how I am feeling. Some I am certain would argue my environment is to blame; that my being forced to live in silence, my not being allowed to deal with my emotions, all contributes my lack of communication skills.

Stop Dwelling on the Past
No matter how hard you are on yourself, you can't be stuck on the past. If they ever had a time machine, people would be stuck on it. You know why? Because no matter the outcome everyone wants to always change one thing that happened. I have learned that no matter what nothing will ever be as fantastic as you would want it so just go with the flow.

Welcome to the Madhouse
How many of you actually read the whole article instead of just reading the title and posting? Be honest! I'm so guilty of not checking facts and not doing this that and other and I always get burned. But more and more lately I find myself being more and more cautious of the information that I ingest. To me its clear to see that there is something DEEPER than what meets the common eyes going on.

The Time I realized I needed to Grow up
I've been often considered as a grown-ass kid. People are always saying I act like a child, that occasionally I give off immature characteristics. This counteracts with my own mature persona. Personally, I believe everyone has a little immaturity in them, it really depends on people's thresholds for maturity in which they describe other's actions as mature or not.

The Human Experience
The thing about joy is it comes in waves, like everything . The same way awful things don't last forever, neither do the good things. It's all a series of ebbs and flows and waves that we learn to ride better with time. Finding things that bring you joy help to prolong those good moments. They also help you to appreciate the good moments that much more, because we know they're fleeting and it's all a part of this weird human experience we've been chosen to endure.

Simply, because order is restored through compassion. Yet, draw the line at hi and good day.
