What gives you direction in life?

Through my humble pursuits in life,

I get a clear sense of direction.

“Focus,” my subconscious said

Whenever there’s a tendency

To go awry; I hear that all the time.

It also inspires me

To do better than good.

It’s like I’m a “bride,”

And my aspirations is my “groom.“

I’m excited.

I’m hopeful.

I’m eager to work hard

To be deserving

of a brighter future.

Do you have a quote you live your life by or think of often?

Otherwise,

You’re not better than a monkey,

Who makes a fool of himself.

What is your favorite holiday? Why is it your favorite?

We, all have a lot to thank God for and be grateful.

One, check your pulse.

You’re alive, right?

Two, you’re born to love and be loved.

You are surrounded by family, friends, and love ones.

Three, you’re eating or nourishing your bodies.

And the list is long—I’m sure.

As for me, I have been to hell and high waters.

I have been to situations, which are matter of life and death—

But God’s love is unrelenting.

So, here I am, alive, safe, working, blogging—

And with my degrees, I can say, I am not a nobody.

And for all of these, I love Thanksgiving Day!

Although I am thankful everyday.

What are your favorite emojis?

But I love all of them:

For me,

Emojis are the informal language of the Digital world,

Which we can use to express emotions “at the moment;”

And which often brings humor to the conversation.

Describe a risk you took that you do not regret.

It was tough being alone and starting anew;

But amid all risks and sacrifices,

Coming to the United States,

Taking and graduating from my undergraduate degrees—

And soon be taking my M. B. A.—

I have all the reasons to be so thankful,

Not just for being in the U.S.,

but in Hawaii in particular.

I love these islands,

I now call home.

Thank You, God!
