”… The child is, simply by virtue of her or his birth, a permanent holder ofrights, with an irrevocable claim to freedom. But she or he will also be born into a world where some people, given the chance, will trample on those rights and freedoms in the name of state security, or economic policy, or group chauvinism…” The UN human rights office’s full statement...

I’ll give up EVERYTHING” Please come back.. The world starts to crumble, so please cherish the people around you. Life is short. Expect the unexpected and keep friends and family...

The other day, I was reading an article about “restaurants now accepting ‘food...

Recently this past weekend, I had the privilege of teaching a workshop at the Asian Pacific American Conference held at Minnesota State University Mankato. I taught “the steps to building your success” and truly, the workshop turned out to be a success.

I want to travel, explore different parts of the world that I never thought I would ever see.
France, Germany, Japan, are a few..
I want to have a successful career, living the life that my parents have dreamt of that their kids would be living.
With that success, I want to travel again.. but this goal is to help people in need.
People who need a friend, a sister, a person who is all hears to...
