This is what I was afraid of – to accomplish what I wish to accomplish… and then, become bored. I was able to conquer my stage fright and talked about writer’s block in iBlog7, I was finally able to publish my poetry book, and I even had a grand book launching to boot. Now, I’m [...]

It used to be just but a dream… a wishful thinking… something that I never really thought would happen… not by a long-shot! But fate knows better. And what was but a dream became real… and I was able to see it… to be it. I was able to live my dream. I had my [...]

My apologies to my smoking friends. Doesn’t it pissed you off that you even have to apologize to them? Unfortunately, that seems to be the rule – smokers have more rights than non-smokers. That is why I am thankful with the new NO SMOKING campaign that the government implemented starting last Monday, May 30. I [...]

Lately, I have been dreaming and doing things which are quite out of my “comfort zone” that I sometimes scare myself whenever I paused and think. Last year, thinking of what to do for my birthday, a strange force “enveloped” me and I recorded a video of myself singing and uploaded it on YouTube! (and [...]

To launch or not to launch? That is the question. Obviously, my choice definitely is TO launch. However, it is not that easy, really. Or is it? Okay, so I dreamed. I worked. I nurtured the dream, and now it is a reality. The book, REFLECTION, is real, even though I had to pinch myself [...]

Wikipedia defines writer’s block as “a condition, associated with writing as a profession, in which an author loses the ability to produce new work.” But this definition limits the definition to those who are writers by profession, and we, bloggers, are “writers by passion” and there are some, especially the “real” writers who do not [...]
