A bit of wisdom from me to you

Stepping into the new year like every other year; with a positive outlook, and giving thanks and praise to the most high.

Someone once asked "Why are you always smiling, are you always happy? I answered "No, I am not always happy, but I choose to smile and enjoy moments." Throughout life I have learnt a lot of great lessons which keeps me going and growing, for example in the past I would vent to my mom about bad days and experiences but my mom advised me that I should never allow anyone to ruin my day, never give anyone that power and every morning I should choose to be in a good mood which will set the tone for the rest of the day. Since then, I have chosen to be guided by this principle. #mindpower

Stress is a silent killer, therefore, I refuse to live the rest of my life over stressing. My husband would say "there are no problems only solutions;" in other words, problems are part of life and all problems we encounter will inevitably get solved. The bottom line is that life is short, you’re here one minute then gone the next; hence the reason we should try to embrace life and enjoy every moment of it, even the not so good moments.

Personally, I try to not waste my time hanging around or engaging in conversations with negative people because they drain my energy. I refuse to get sucked into their negative emotional spirals. I am a seeker of wisdom, so I try my best to associate with like minded people and gain wisdom from the wise and experienced.

Lastly, in my opinion, a fulfilling life is making the best of what I have, striving to be healthy which is really number one, knowing that my family members are also healthy, loved, safe and have food on the table; that is my true happiness.

Have a wonderful year.

Baked Chicken

Baked Chicken | Simple Meal Ideas | Cooking Tips No recipe today, however this is today's cooking tips and a simple meal idea: Baking Chicken tips: Rinse the chicken and pat it dry before baking. Once you remove the chicken from its package, rinse it under cool water in the sink (note: always sanitize your sink with disinfectant afterward). Next, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Removing excess moisture will ensure you get extra crispy skin. To reduce fat and calories, you can skin chicken legs. Prepare all ingredients and preheat the oven to 400°F. Spices: I like to use cumin, onion (grated) garlic (grated), paprika, celery powder, cayenne pepper and dried thyme if you have. Please make sure they are fresh! Spices are delicious, but a stale spice can easily ruin a dish. However, you are free to try different spice combinations. The secret to making them crispy? Don't bake the chi...

One Day at a Time

One Day at a Time Working out takes courage and self-motivation. It’s not always about losing weight — for me, it's about staying healthy, strong, and grateful that I can move. Whether it's Taekwondo or Zumba, my goal is the same: to stay active, to keep my energy flowing, and to enjoy the process — no stress, no pressure, just one day at a time. At my age, it may be harder to see quick results, but that doesn’t stop me. I focus on progress, not perfection. Some days, I don’t even want to leave the house — but that's when I give myself that little pep talk, reminding myself why I'm doing this. And once I start, no matter how tough the session gets, I’m always grateful I showed up. Because being able to move, stretch, kick, and dance is a blessing — health is true wealth. Every workout is a victory over excuses, a reminder that I am stronger than my doubts. Progress may be slow, but as they say, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Slowly but surely — I’m building s...
