In Pursuit of Awe.
I have spent most of my life in search of happiness and attempting to be an imperfect (ironically perfect) wife, mom, daughter, and employee. Then my twenty-year marriage imploded and along with learning how to fix the leaky toilet, I needed to figure out who I was and who I wanted to be. My heart broke in a million different pieces and I realized my path to healing doesnt involve happiness, but moments that fill me with awe.
The Birth of Ordinary Asian Mom
In the midst of quite an eventful midlife, all I want to be is ordinary. I know there are Asian women with multiracial kids, divorced/separated later in life, struggling to balance work and motherhood, and livid that there was so much hype around pregnancy and the miracle of menstruating that, only until recently, women had so little information on menopause.
Unfortunately, I scoured the internet and bookstores, desperately seeking woman who were like me, craving to read about a life like mine. Nothing quite fit the bill.
These are my stories. I write them in an attempt to let other middle aged women, especially Asian immigrant women, know they aren’t alone. This isn’t a website where you’ll get expert advise on anything. But I hope it becomes a place where you can find humor, warmth, your own inspiration, and everything else in between.
