Divorce

In a lot of cultures - including Ethiopian - divorce is still a taboo of sorts... especially among the religious parts of the country. I didn't really understand these things when I was younger.

Once I reached college, I discovered that out of a group of 11 of my friends,...

Retrospective
Europe

I have been thinking about traveling at some point this year. 
I have the time and I have the drive. 

Since earlier this year, I have been thinking about going to Europe to see what types of stem cell therapies are available. I know that the US has laws against it but...

Memoir

My father published his autobiography last month. I am very proud to see him finish that project that was started many years ago. He is an avid reader and always talked about writing a book someday. It was a wonderful journey to see him from planning, writing, editing, more editing,...

Creativity

The last 2 months, I started to experiment with new recipes. I wanted to see if I can create meals that were healthy and delicious so I didn't feel like I was being deprived. I have read enough books that state that in order to maintain a habit, it needs...

6 weeks

I have the next 6 weeks to myself. 
I don't have too many commitments.  
I don't have any doctor's appointments (which was what took most of my time)
I don't have anything that could stress me out that I know of at the moment. 

This is the first 6 week break that I have...

The other day, someone on the telegram group shared Baz's post about what he has been up to the last year or so. Baz - for those who don't know, created a website called 200WordsAday.com where a bunch of us started our writing journey. I in particular had no explicit...

Prey

A few weeks ago, I watched a movie called 'I care a lot' on Netflix.
When I looked at the tailor, I found it interesting and seeing Peter Dinklage from Game of Thrones made me decide to watch the movie. 

The concept of the movie is that there are only two...

Questions

I have been told that my mind works in a different way. My friends tease me and call me Sheldon from the big bang theory. Not because he is a scientist but because his mind sees things very differently from others. This point usually comes up when I ask questions....
