she strives to do it all
Often we are encouraged to step up and take the lead in overcoming challenges. The more exposed we are, the more we learn, and the wiser we become. Understanding what are the challenges, how to overcome them, and taking actions are all imperative. Unfortunately, not many would like to conquer them all. Some love dwelling…
Since this morning, creative illustrations with #internationalwomensday and #IWD2021 flooded all over social media, appreciating women from all walks of life. I turned to my partner and asked: “Why is there a dedicated day just for women?” International Women’s Day has always been there. It wasn’t until recently when this special day catches even more…
It has been three years since Frames of Life Blog was established. At the beginning, I was disciplined and assertive in writing three to four posts per week. A commitment I made to myself, website was buzzing, and momentum was rising. Since the world has gone into on and off lock-downs, remote working has taken…
Latest news of the day: The UK government decided to extend furlough scheme until September. I find it hard to imagine not working for months.

Sustainability topic is not a new news. We hear about it every day, especially in this part of a more mature society – Western Europe….
Finished a long distance phone call an hour ago with a friend. I can’t help but thinking over the grievances he shared with me about his job. Admittedly, the employment market does not look favourable at present. With increasing pandemic cases, it will take a while before recovery sign surfaces. Unfortunately, Covid doesn’t discriminate geographically…
Second week into 2021. Here I am, procrastinating about how’s best to make use of the next 50 weeks to come. It’s easy to come up with just about anything. Somehow, I’ve put in considerable thoughts into what I set to achieve this year compared to previous years. Perhaps I’m approaching mid-life dilemma whereby material…
