Happy Hippy

Being a mother have made me a braver, stronger person. It has also caused me to be confronted with so many fears and worries for my little one.

One of my greatest fears is not being able to provide a good environment for him— a world where children once climbed trees, caught frogs in the pond, swam in the clear blue waters of the rivers and seas, and were nourished with Mother Nature's great harvests. 

I fear for the day that he will no longer know about the graceful and swift flight of the mighty eagle, to see the playful dolphins of the ocean— dancing along the clear blue current, to hear the orchestral chirps of the birds in the early morning, to feel the soft kisses of the fresh mountain air as the morning fog glides along his soft, chubby cheeks. I fear for the day that Mother Nature will no longer be the beautiful goddess that she is.

“In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.” 

Aristotle

The Day The Machine Broke Down

I hate hand washing. I mean, for the life of me, I will not hand wash a single article of clothing. Like, come on, what use will the machine be for if not to serve its purpose?

It's not that I am lazy-it's just that I choose not to. Don't get me wrong, I know how to do housework. Heck, I am as domesticated as a stepford wife, throw in the OC issues and I am IT!

I am really loving how so sexist this poster is. It makes me want to grab a mop and  scrub the floor til it gleams, while making my man a sandwich!

What I hate about hand washing is that it's just too time-consuming; and with my schedule nowadays, time is literally GOLD. I would give up my love for Johnny Depp just to have another 5 minutes of uninterrupted snooze in between hitting the snooze button ( a million times, if I may add!) on my alarm clock and floating in a sleepless coma.

The Power is Within You!

There is something about a woman's intuition that is amazingly baffling. Perhaps it's because us women are more in tune with our selves--- particularly our thoughts and feelings. Isn't weird how so on point it seems? As if we have this weird "spider sense" that tingles everytime we feel "the sour sweet winds in the air" (pardon me, but in Seuss-talk, it means "trouble". Geez, I am such a dork!). But yeah, isn't it weird when you feel like something bad is about to happen and you just can't explain why things feel so wrong; then BAM! your "premonition" comes true! How many times has this happened to you? There is actually a word for it and it's called "intuition"- A thing that one knows or considers likely from instinctive feeling rather than conscious reasoning (thank you, all mighty Google!).
