In the past week or so, as one of my best friends & I talked about lost identities and core selves and finding or rediscovering parts of our selves, he recommended the three Kung Fu Panda movies to me; so I watched them.  [Spoiler alert: the rest of this post might give away a lotContinue reading “Kung Fu Panda”

Recently, I started reading the book Life isn’t binary by M-J Barker & A. Iantaffi. I’m usually a slow reader but I’ve devoured this book. I could say so much about it, I hardly even know from where to start, so for now let me just say that this book has finally allowed me toContinue reading “Beautiful, insane world?”
