2016 Book No. 6: The Butterfly Garden

Hey everyone! So far, I’ve been reading a book a month this year. I’ve realized that is what my lifestyle allows and it makes me happy that at least I am reading far more than last year, so I shouldn’t punish myself for not reading “enough.” This month, I decided to switch to a mystery […]

New Book Update: The Year Without a Purchase

Earlier this month, I began reading The Year Without a Purchase: One Family’s Quest to Stop Shopping and Start Connecting by Scott Dannemiller, and I must say, I am finding it quite surprising. Dannemiller, so far, has good writing talent. He makes common things funny and relatable, and touches on points right away. I have not […]

My Miracle Morning Challenge and New Book Update

Hello! Let me just say, doing this Miracle Morning has proven to be difficult but doable! Gosh, I had no idea that snoozing my alarm was such a bad habit. Meditating is a new thing for me so I am still trying to get the hang of it. Verbally affirming things is also a weird […]
