Nimai navigated his way to the selection hall. It was such an exciting time and he could feel the anticipation bubbling inside. A new life, a new beginning, a new mission. Planning a fresh start was always a satisfying hobby and this was no different. There were so many things he'd been saving up to … Continue reading A New Mission
As I shielded my eyes from the bright sunlight, I saw it. It was much smaller than I remembered. At only 2 stories I guess it was because I was so small. Memories came flooding back - my father chasing me from one room to the next, then once he caught me, I chasing him … Continue reading The Applause
How often do you reflect on the past? Every week, every day? When we meet up with friends we often refer to past memories, experiences and events, reminiscing about the "good old days". With Facebook and Timehop we're reminded daily of photos we've taken and statuses we have written. We all like looking at old photos … Continue reading Looking at the Future with Fond Memories
Big statement huh? Hard to believe? If you think about it, how many times can you recall an event or situation that appeared "bad" that at the time, but shortly after, became a massive positive?

I'll do things others want to do instead of mentioning what I'd like to do, re-arrange my own … Continue reading Your Pain Isn’t My Pain
Well, it's here, the big 3-0. I didn't think I would feel any different but the truth is, I do. I guess when you're in your 20s you feel like you can get away with a lot. There's no pressure to rush into life and you can pretty much do what you want without anyone … Continue reading What I Would Tell My 20 Year Old Self
Have you ever entered into a relationship and, after a while, noticed things about yourself that you didn't before? Things you do, habits, responses, ways of dealing with certain situations. Before we met this person these aspects of our personality stayed hidden, not from the world, but from us. We were blind to them. Maybe … Continue reading Letting in the Light
