Why Handwriting Could Be Good For You
Introduction Text from the Instagram post below: 1. Dr. Tanaka tracked seniors over 80 in Kyoto and found one constant: they wrote by hand for 15 minutes a day. Typing uses one neural pathway, but physical writing hits 17 different zones. You’re robbing your focus when you pick a keyboard over a pen. 2. MRI scans show that writing by hand forces your brain to manage spatial logic and memory at the same time. This effort keeps you off autopilot. Typing is just muscle memory, while writing is active thinking. It’s the clear difference between simple data storage and actual cognitive engagement. 3. In one trial, those journaling by hand had 41% better recall and 34% faster processing. “The pen builds the hardware,” Tanaka noted. The industry hid this for years to protect revenue, since you can’t patent a pen. They chose profit over your memory. Write three original sentences every morning to keep your mind sharp.

Day 30 of Quitting
Well, I’m back in Canada and this saga continues, but I’d be lying if I said it’s been easy. Two afternoons ago, my boyfriend and I landed in Toronto after 21 hours of flying and three days of travel. We had just gotten off a 15-hour flight from Hong Kong to Canada where neither of us slept. The temperature had gone from plus-30 to negative-25 (celsius), no coffee was hitting as beautifully strong as Australian coffee had (iykyk), and a long to-do list was waiting for us on the other side of a 5-hour car ride back to the remote village we live in, up in northern Ontario.

Ecclesiastes and the Weight of Meaninglessness
Have you ever noticed how unsettling Ecclesiastes feels compared to most of Scripture. It does not rush to reassure. It does not soften its conclusions. It returns again and again to the same observation: everything fades, everything repeats, and nothing under the sun seems capable of holding still long enough to become permanent. Wisdom fails to secure lasting satisfaction. Pleasure loses its edge. Work outlives the worker. Even moral effort appears unable to guarantee stability. For many readers, this tone feels almost dissonant, as if the book is saying out loud what faith is supposed to quiet.
