It's not too late to start again, is it?

For a long time, I've trapped myself in a cage with an open door. I thought that the cage felt comfortable so I decided not to get out from it. I told myself that it wasn't that bad. That changes today.

I'm writing again. 

It's not too late to start again, is it?



The author of this blog is plain and simple. She thinks mostly of the usual things - life, love, beauty. She enjoys the basic necessities like food, warmth, blankets, and music. She gets thrilled with the idea of an adventure but doesn't really like to go on one, unless her spontaneity kicks in. She's got a fire in her belly most days, but enjoys the leisure of being in bed at the same time. Odd. Weird. Plain. Simple. Mary Jedde. An old soul, a lifelong learner, and a flourishing human being.

At Home, At Ease, and At Peace in Our New Home

 A new home.  These three words have currently etched themselves in my heart. For the past few months since the year 2021 started, we've been keeping our hands full in preparing our humble abode. Travelling from the North to the South, with Alex patiently driving and safely bringing me back home (until the wedding). This space will soon be filled with new and wonderful memories.  There is nothing but gratitude and awe that occupies every crevice in my being because now, we can gather our loved ones and celebrate life moments in a bigger space. We can unleash our creative spirits more as the breathtaking view of the sky and the mountain greets us with impeccable confidence every day. As we sip our cup of coffee in the morning, there is nothing but thanksgiving to the Lord for all His goodness, providence, and unfailing love. In each rising and setting of the sun, we will always be reminded that life is beautiful, as each ray of light seeps through the clouds, gently caress...

I never thought that a single candy can teach me an important life lesson. But it did, and I would like to share that story with you today. It happened one afternoon while I was in a cab. I was exhausted after a long day under the sun, working, facilitating, and running around the warm wide space of Sentosa in Singapore. I could recall feeling heavy and fatigued. It wasn't just because of the heat but also because of the challenges I had to solve that same day that drained me out. I was on my way back to the office, along with an assistant staff and the ride was not as comfortable as I would have wanted it to be. The exhaustion paired with feeling famished made my stomach growl. It was then that I remembered something that made me look forward to finding it. I had saved one last candy inside my bag! So, I searched for it sluggishly but as eagerly as I could until I found it, tucked inside one of the pockets. I took out the candy, ready to rip it open and enjoy the much-needed sugar...

Away from the Nest

"It's okay to be scared. Being scared means you're about to do something really, really brave." Fear: A Foe or a Friend  Once you reach a point in time when you find yourself clutching your chest as if trying to steady your heart and you are faced with a decision that you know will forever change your life, then take a deep breath and reach for it.  Uncertainty is scary. Not knowing where you are or what's going to happen next sure is dreadful. But you know what's worse? It's not being able to move. See, fear is a paralysing thing. It magnifies worries, self-doubts and insecurities. It overshadows the light, the goal, and what could be. But being scared is alright and being scared is important. It's a reminder that you are alive. It's a sign that there's an impending change. Being scared is a signal for you to take action because you are on to something great. The moment you decide to let go, just break free and let lo...
