“While riding the SF MUNI after office on a busy weekday, I saw a Chanel-clad young lady crying her eyes out. Mascara bleeding. Her tanned, toned torso trembling. Clutching on to her Hermés for life, silent screams of terror formed on her pretty pout.
Was she hurt? No one was holding a knife to her. Everyone was too busy on their phones to even notice her.
No apparent bodily damage. Good physical health radiated from her.

Statistically speaking, right-now is the greatest time to be alive in the history of our species (Refer data). Still we catch ourselves whining (and swearing at the world!). This blog is to calm down, provide perspectives, to go through research data/articles, and more importantly just to remind ourselves that life is not a battle!

A happier world is within our kid’s reach. Let us get there first and let us bring them along!
