A Dose of Cath

I realized that my recent blogs have been rather morbid and cynical. It's a reflection of my moods and the stage of life that I'm in, but I understand that negativity won't propel you forward much, so I'm writing this blog, which I hope will be uplifting for you and a healing process for me. For all you dreamers out there who feel dejected; for those of you who are dealing with one rejection after another, and are thinking of giving up, this one is for you.

On a clear Sunday morning, I walked through the gate of a primary school, Pi Thnou Primary School, in Battambang. The yellow buildings with spots of washed-out paint surrounding a sizable yard sent pangs of nostalgia with every step I took. But most of all, it was the smiling faces of children and young teens that sent me back to the time when I was their age—relishing in my innocence without a care in the world.
