I’ve never thought of myself as different from others.

In my twenties, I often found joy in the little things around me.

The weather always had an impact on my mood, and savoring delicious food could instantly boost my spirits.

As I’ve grown older, my perspective on happiness has evolved.

Last year, I returned to marathon running, started hiking, and went trekking.

These experiences became my sanctuary, a place where worries melted away like morning dew.

In these moments, I could immerse myself in the present, focusing solely on my existence and breath.

Through this, I began to discover a different kind of happiness one that wells up from within.

People are like rain, they come and go

All things arise, exist, then flow



Will deeper understanding of life’s truths Bring more peace and less suffering?

I began practicing the art of tidying up over a decade ago, when Marie Kondo’s book was gaining popularity. Little did I know that organizing my space would become a cherished ritual, helping me to cultivate mindfulness and reflect on my life over time.

What started with a small room has since expanded into an entire house. 3 years ago I moved into a larger space and began organizing each room meticulously every midyear I undertake a major decluttering mission, cleaning and reorganizing the entire house.

One of my favorite method inspired by Marie Kondo, involves taking everything out of a closet or specific category and laying it all out. This tangible approach allows me to see exactly what I own while it sounds simple in reality it’s quite challenging! Items like books, documents, and clothes took several days to sort through in the early years.

In the past 3-4 years as I’ve honed my skills, I’ve noticed that each year there are always items that were once essential but are no longer necessary for my present or future. 

This year again I spent about 7-10 days organizing and cleaning  focused on discarding unneeded items and rearranging spaces to better suit my daily life. When the house is in order and the fridge is stocked, my mind feels at peace 🍃
