HEALTH IS WEALTH
Exercise Regular physical activity can have numerous benefits for overall health and well-being. It helps burn calories, build muscle, and increase metabolism, promoting weight loss and maintenance. Exercise also helps to improve cardiovascular health, boost mood and energy levels, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Engaging in regular physical activity can also enhance mental clarity, improve sleep quality, and increase self-esteem and confidence. To maximize the benefits of exercise, it's recommended to engage in a variety of activities for at least 30 minutes a day, most days of the week.

Self-care is not selfish
Self-care is not selfish, it's essential. It's important to make time for self-care activities, even when you are busy. It's essential to know yourself, what you need and what makes you feel good.

Alex and Maggie
Alex sits on the bench outside of the shark tank window with her head in her hands. She is overly familiar with this spot. This has become her place to come after school, to read, or to study. She would much rather be at the aquarium than in her own home nowadays. It is hard to determine who subjects more abuse her way; her mom or her stepdad. Either way, she doesn't want to hear it today. She tries not to believe it. But it is hard not to believe it when that is all she hears and sees from the moment she hits the front door. So, in order to avoid negativity at all costs, she has found her happy place. Right on the bench outside of the shark tank window.

My Thoughts about 'Geek Girls Don't Cry'- part one
Can I say this out loud? Wow! This book is incredible! Incredibly well-done! Great for all ages of girls & women. I got a copy of this book before my 31st birthday. Back in the Holidays of 2018, I saw some updates about that new book that Marisha Ray & Andrea Towers are doing something about how to be a strong & an amazing role model in real life just like the pop culture heroines. I’m like Marisha, I had been through so many gender stigmas about games & superheroes. I grew up with all kinds of outstanding things including NES (Nintendo Entertainment System), Power Rangers, X men, etc. I would like to share how I overcame my fears, trauma, isolation, grief, and adversity after I read each chapter from Geek Girls Don’t Cry. Ready? Here we go!

Love in the age of fluid modernity
The most important patterns through which liquid modernity appeared in the era of globalization, is the commodification of the body and “liquidity” that has been hierarchically hierarchical until entering the family home. Anything that might fall into one's hands should immediately enjoy, for who knows what the future might bring? Thus, gratification has lost its aura and attractiveness, so one does not feel safe from the benefits of the work and effort that he invests today while he is heading towards reaching the reward; Gains can be losses in the blink of an eye, joyous rewards can become disgrace, fashions come and go with dizzying speed and all objects of desire move at an erratic pace, and, unfortunately, the word has become "disgusting" for nothing louder than pleasure.

On Mortality
Foreword (This article contains major spoilers for "I Want to Eat Your Pancreas". I recommend looking into any of its four releases before reading this. It will make sense regardless, but the story warrants your attention.)

How Does BHRT Work?
Your hormones intercommunicate to promote your everyday bodily functioning, including hunger, mood, metabolism, and sexual desire. When hormone levels in the body fluctuate, it can seriously impact your well-being and health. This is when most people begin using hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to give their bodies the required hormones. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is earning more reputation as a natural remedy for men and women with a hormone imbalance.

A copy of "The Master of Magic Dao" made me encounter the beautiful human nature.
I have traveled all over the mountains and rivers to appreciate the great mountains and rivers; But these are not as good as the old books in my heart.
