Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

It was the first book that I read all the way through when I was a teenager and because of that experience, I realized that I could read. And that experience, ignited of love for reading despite having challenges with dyslexia.

The story taught me how to be brave on life’s journey and that life is filled with good and bad people. And it was OK to be frightened at times on life’s journey, but the important thing was to continue walking on the road.

What fears have you overcome and how?

That’s a very good question. My answer is battling the fear of perfection because we live in a society where everything has to be perfect according to the culture. Here are some examples: the perfect home, the perfect relationship, the perfect family, the perfect pet, and the perfect career.

I believe the fear comes from realizing that you cannot meet that expectation of having the perfect life. Homes will be messy, relationships require work, careers have up and downs, and pets grow old and start having health issues.

Once I realized that perfection is a lie created to sell products or pushing a narrative about issues. I started seeing my life in a different perspective and realized I don’t have to be perfect. I just need to do things to the best of my ability.

Do you remember life before the internet?

Yes, I do. Would I go back? No.

There are so many things that I have because of the internet. That didn’t exist.

Audiobooks, dictation, video calls, and easy access to information these inventions were brought by the internet.

My Internet went out for a few days, and it felt like I went back in time 20 years ago. I was so happy when my internet was restored.

Where I have been?

I been dealing with flare-ups, it is time for me to change my medications.

My chores are increasing since the warmer weather has arrived. I’m still recovering from surgery, and my body reminds me I’m still healing.

I’m also working on several writing projects that have been taking up my time, and I have been working on my music again. It is nice to sit in my chair for a longer period of time.
