This week I've run 5+ miles without any pain whatsoever. It doesn't sound like much, but it's a big achievement for me because I've been dealing with some bad and painful injuries for the last few years.

Things That Matter: Time
Infinite time is something most of us want, but none of us will ever get. Sadly. Time goes by fast for adults and slow for children, or maybe the opposite. Time is limited.

When we think about life, enjoyable and positive moments, we are most likely to think about friends and family.

Things That Matter: Traveling
I love traveling. It's become an essential part of my life and has taught me more than I could've ever imagined; from cultures, languages, currencies and negotiation to living as simple as possible, doing more with less, valuing every meal, conversation and person I meet, being a more well-rounded and open-minded person, and understanding people better.

Moving On – Hong Kong ’16
It doesn't matter how much you love it here or there, him or her, this or that; things will often have an end. It's cruel, I know. One of the most difficult parts is accepting it has ended and that it's time to move on and move forward.
Don’t Mess with Mother Nature
Good and bad times are always unforgettable. Both teach you something you didn't know before, and that's the beauty of exploring and finding the purpose of our existence, the purpose of life.

Podcasts are a source to continue learning for me. I'm definitely a big fan of them. A week ago I was invited to do an episode of Funboat Diplomacy, a podcast and website about people, places, and living.
