Covid 19 and me
"Courage is knowing what not to fear." - Plato It has been two long years since the Covid 19 was introduced worldwide. I have been stuck in possibly the best place, Honolulu, Hawaii, to be in the shutdown from the beginning of the pandemic. Just as dramatic and unrealistic, as the scale of it was, I was stunned and in disbelief of the public reactions as well as that of the government, especially here in the US.

Dearest my grandchild
Dear Precious, Congrats on your graduation! I am so proud of you. It's not like you needed to achieve something to be congratulated because you are awesome without any doing. Just being you is something to be celebrated. But I know it is also nice to be recognized.

First Step To The Big Dream. Runner-Up in We Have a Dream Challenge.
I have a big dream; it’s so big and unrealistic to many, I dare not to tell anyone. Until now. I dream of a peaceful and harmonious world where people have roofs over their heads and do not go hungry. This is one of my dreams that had not been materialized. Although I had some experience of living in very minimal material comforts and foods during my college year, I was fortunate enough to have a shared room and meals provided by the restaurant for which I worked on weekends and in the evening. I have never experienced homelessness, but I have a friend who has during his youth due to a drug-addicted parent who couldn't adequately provide for her son. Unfortunately, there are many children who become homeless because of their parents' misfortunes, issues with money, mental and/or emotional health in industrious countries like the US. There are so many people without decent housing and food in developing countries as well. My dream is to create a world that none of us need to worry about not having shelters to feel safe and food to eat. Rich or poor, it is our birthright to have these basic necessities. Sounds dreamy? I used to think so. But no more.
