Marsha Maung: I write. I love. I live

Exploring new ways to help people and businesses get online. Part of the job is to explore the many different ways that work We've been in lockdown since...gosh, I don't know anymore. How long has it been? All I know is today is Monday because my messages and emails rudely woke me up and this only usually happens on a Monday when everyone's frantic to get things done. We're hanging in there, in all honesty. My older son is happy that his college assignments and tests are now conducted from the comfort of his tiny room. My younger son has not been able to pop into the gym for his usual routine and is basically displaying signs of boredom that I wish I could help him with. The good news is that: His guitar skills is getting better I think he's still sticking to learning Chinese (and maybe even Japanese) through online videos and classes He's been helping me out during dinner time My boys and I have been more collaborative in keeping the home cl...

I am quite a homebody so, there's little to complain about. And if the house is a mess, it's a ni...

I've been through some really tough times these past few years. It's not a sad story because I think I came out of it alive and even more motivated. Things I've learned. I've realized that some people are just born shitty Not everyone's going to like me, no matter what I do. It's futile to try, so, I've stopped doing that Time is really short Goals is one thing, achievement is another Shitty people are everywhere, you'll meet them. I did and the only fightback I have is to get up again and stand tall Everyone has a story If not now, when? If I don't try it, I'll never know There's a lesson in everything - good and bad alike Slow and steady is better than fast I have the best family I can ever ask for, considering my personality - LOL I can't hang onto the past. I have a tendency to do that Choosing to be home or work from home is one thing. Being forced to and threatened with prison time to not step out of your house is q...
