Life\u2019s Two Halves<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThis article talks about how psychiatrist Carl Jung saw life as having two halves. The author writes \u201cIn the second half of life, it\u2019s no longer enough to find meaning in success.

When I think about the immigrant experience, I think mostly of the hard work, indignities suffered, and sacrifice. When my husband shared this article with me, I was curious about what kind of b.s. I was about to read. But I was wrong. This article says \u201cThe act of migration involves taking risks in pursuit of a meaningful reward and having faith in the future. Everyone should try to live more like that.\u201d Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why the Filet-O-Fish is My Gold Standard for Fast Food<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nOne benefit of Stop Asian Hate is that Asians around the world are writing about their experiences and sharing their personal stories. Growing up I had Amy Tan and The Joy Luck Club<\/em>, but that\u2019s about it. In this New York Times <\/em>article, an Asian Canadian writer writes about her love of the Filet-O-Fish. This one spoke to my heart and stomach because it is so true. I just never realized it wasn\u2019t just me and my family who obsessed over the Filet-O-Fish!<\/p>\n\n\n\nBonus of being home\u2026 old photos. I think I may have come up with the \u201cdab\u201d first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
