Patrice makes perfect, NOT.

I'm made up of words I haven't said yet.

6 years and 8 months down the drain.

I just woke up one day, and somehow, I’m already in my early 30s. I’m not even sure what I did with all those years.

I used to write. I loved to read. But somewhere along the way, those parts of me faded, like pages left out in the sun—slowly bleached and forgotten.

Someone once asked me, “Which version of yourself do you like the most?”

And I said, “The old me.”

At least she was optimistic. She always tried to see the good in the bad. She shared her thoughts, even the messy ones. She was fearless. Fearless with a fire.

I’m still fearless now—but it feels different. It’s more of a nothing-left-to-lose kind of fearless.

But there’s one thing that’s never changed. One question that’s been with me for as long as I can remember— Lingering, echoing, unanswered:

“What’s at the end of the line for me?”

Here's to the dreams that didn't come true.

Craving Japan. Manifesting Japan.

“A few times in my life I’ve had moments of absolute clarity. When for a few brief seconds the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think, and things seem so sharp and the world seems so fresh. It’s as though it had all just come into existence. I can never make these moments…

[patrice-makes-perfect]

For all the chaos that my mind goes through, I wish to have this clarity at least once more.

“I’ve always been a slow learner in some areas of my life.mostly the areas known as myself. Or maybe I should say ‘selves.’because the fact is, I’ve never, even as a child, felt I’m only one self, only one person. I’ve always felt I’m quite a few more than one. For example, there’s my jokey self, there’s my morose and fed-up self,there’s my lewd and disgusting self. There’s my clever-clogs self, and my fading-violet-who-cant-make-up-her-mind-about-anything self. There’s my untidy-clothes-everywhere-all-over-my-room self, and my manically tidy self when I want my room to be minimalist and Zen to the ninth degree. There’s my confidant, arrogant self and my polite and reasonable and good listener self. There’s my self-righteous self and my wickedly bad self, my flaky self and my sentimental self. There are selfs I like and selfs I don’t like.there’s my little-girl self who likes to play silly games and there’s my old-woman self when I’m quite sure I’m eighty and edging towards geriatric.

The self I show in action at any moment depends on where I am, who I’m with, the circumstances of the situation and the mood I’m in.”

We need women who are so strong they can be gentle, so educated they can be humble, so fierce they can be compassionate, so passionate they can be rational, and so disciplined they can be free.
