Time to chillax!


As we are all going through this unprecedentedly difficult time, we need daily dose of humor that could make a great ‘pick-me-up’ or an emotional boost. When was the last time you laughed or even smiled? I find myself too quiet and withdrawn, having this sardonic smile or just a blank look in my own nook at home. Social distancing of six feet away from others makes me feel like six feet under now and then. Face masks with particulate filter would also increase our affective filter among people. How about you guys out there? Let us just hang in there and stop a moment to laugh in this situation full of gravitas, at least once a day. “Like a welcome Summer rain, humor may suddenly cleanse and cool the earth, the air, and you.” ……Langston Hughes    😉






“I don’t do drugs. I am drugs.” ……….. Salvador Dali

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”…… Albert Eisntein



“When people agree with me, I always feel that I must be wrong.”….Oscar Wilde

“Why do they call it rush hour if no one moves?”…….. Robin Williams



“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”…….Abraham Lincoln



“The average dog is a nicer person than the average person.”….. Andy Rooney



“At every party there two kinds of people;  Those who want to go home and those who don’t. The trouble is, they are usually married to each other.”……. Ann Landers



“In every circle of friends there’s always that one person everyone secretly hates. Don’t have one? Then it’s probably you.” …….Will Ferrell



“I used to work at McDonald’s making minimum wage. You know what that means when someone pays you minimum wage? You know what your boss was trying to say? It’s like “Hey, if I could pay you less, I would, but it’s against the law.” …………….Chris Rock

On the Day of the New Beginning of My Home Country

  Opening the Door to My Strong Home Country by Jean Jiyoung Lee June 3 rd 2025   Let your long-lost inner light shine Wake up and stay woke from dark torpor Prayers for those in pain are yours and mine Heart-wrenching memories will stay where they were It will be all right to find yourself supine As long as you get up and go tomorrow as a warrior Pat on your back and be on cloud nine The wintry chill in the past would rather feel like warmer When upslopes batter your spirits down, just say you’ll be fine As you feel connected to your strength, curveballs are no longer a torture Now laugh out loud and give a smile so divine The moon rabbits would greet you back in your dreams tonight with rice cake from their mortar Blessing is another word for fine The bitter past was only a blessing in disguise ‘cause your new era will be a perfect restorer Raise your glass of wine Time to live your life on the solid anchor
