I wasn't expecting 2021 to begin with the loss of my grandmother, but I guess that's life. Always in my heart Halmunni.

“As long as we can celebrate our individuality, our own uniqueness and specialness, I think that’s empowering more than anything. I also want to say that it’s always a process of going back and forth and I think that I've learned to accept that. All the love, pain, sadness and joy—that's part of life.”
I had a lovely conversation with Kelly Lim for the WOW Magazine cover story about my career and what empowerment means in my world at the moment.
It’s a funny time we’re living in. All tender sentiments aside, I hope you’re doing okay. Things will always change and turn, but that’s the beauty of life—even the toughest and bleakest of times will yield to another sunrise, a new day, a chance to take action.
Does it make you feel good?
Are you happy?
Can you breathe through life thinking you’ve destroyed one another?
CXXIX
The expense of spirit in a waste of shame
Is lust in action: and till action, lust
Is perjured, murderous, bloody, full of blame,
Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust;
Enjoyed no sooner but despised straight;
Past reason hunted; and no sooner had,
Past reason hated, as a swallowed bait,
On purpose laid to make the taker mad.
Mad in pursuit and in possession so;
Had, having, and in quest to have extreme;
A bliss in proof, and proved, a very woe;
Before, a joy proposed; behind a dream.
All this the world well knows; yet none knows well
To shun the heaven that leads men to this hell.
