Do you only have yourself?

I had this thought when I came home from work today – do you have just ONE person whom you can really, truly, fully fall back to? Or, do you only have yourself? Honestly, I am not sure if I have one person whom I can fully rely on, whom I can really entrust my

I left the Blue Bank

Re-ze-ki I haven’t written in ages, and it’s taken me over a year to write that I’ve since left the Blue Bank.

Start again

How sad is it to find out that your entire 11 years of blog posts were wiped out? I loved writing, despite losing my mojo every now and then… I always turn back to writing. I think I was particularly sad about losing my posts because I had written all about the transition of my
