It is  absurd asking yourself what the world needs off you. The kernel question is why you are alive and breathing and what you need to do to make yourself live life fully and not be abrupt towards it. No words can wield the matter in any answer – you have to look inside you to find what you’re...

About Me

My life is an eternal quest about knowing myself. There is a lot I learn about life from books, from my friends, music, philosophy, and I owe a thing or two to the men in my life (namely my father, a dear ex best friend and my ex-husband). I have ample wit and I am not ashamed to show it off. p.s. I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.
