Interests

I am trying to understand how many things interest me. So I’ve made a list, partly for fun, partly to help me understand, and, perhaps, focus in on some subjects a little better as time passes.

- Psychology : I have desire to know more about myself, that is why I love psychology and everything about it. I want to understand myself and people around me. I want to understand why people do the things they do and what has caused them to do it. It is amazing to know that things we learn to things we've been through can affect who we are and how we do things.

- Gazing at the sea : I am so happy to sit, just by myself, with my feet on the sand at the beach gazing into the distance, for hours.

- People : I enjoy activity with people, for example, talking with them, share life stories, help or be helped by them, guide or be guided by them.

- Cooking : As Paul Therox said, " Cooking requires confident guesswork and improvisation, experiment and substitution, dealing with failure and uncertainty in a creative way."
Cooking heals. Cooking is therapy and it is effective.
I’m looking back at what cooking has meant to me. Teach me a lot. It’s tied me to places and people, kept me breathing through tough times, and provided an opportunity to share to others.

- Crafting : Creativity, to me, is another form of a true blessing. The ability to create something beautiful is a true art. It feels like there is nothing that can stop you from exploring.

- Gardening : I enjoy it! I really do. It makes my world beautiful. I look at my garden every day.. Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Psychology. To know you better..inside out.
Music: Classical music, Opera, Easy Listening.. and the list will go on and on and on..
Movie: Definitely comedy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't swim and the idea of swimming in the sea, scared me big time. Drowned so many times, fall many times to the sea and immediately sink like a rock.

But I did something to conquer my fear of the depth of the water. I forced myself to learn to dive. Panic attack, carried away by the sea flow, you named it.

And I am proudly say now.. I'm loving it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I finished what I started, how hard it might be, and how impossible it might appear
I don't give up. Ever.

What is the Secret? Go do something ridiculously hard and don't tell anyone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Amazing stories: hidden paradise of a beautiful soul.
