Rewriting our Ecosystem in our Mental Health

Mental Health is a state of well-being in which an individual: realizes their own abilities, can cope with normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and contribute to their community. When I asked myself in the past if I've been in a state of well-being, I would often say "I'm okay" and then continue working and "numbing". My physical illnesses started to flair in my gut, neck, and lower back over years and told me otherwise, that my emotional and mental health are NOT OKAY.

We paint some part of the house with a new color, we hum melodies, we make TikToks! All the time we create, perhaps from something pre-existing, but we form something different or new.

These are always just perfectly out of frame or set aside so that you can focus fully on the final product. But the beautiful image isn’t possible without all of these things. The things we don’t want in frame are still what makes the final image possible...

“I would love to see you come back to large group next week! Do you think you’ll make it?” Here we have two simple sentences that God used to forever change my life.

​I went into my first year of college at Texas A&M University back in 2009 wanting to disprove Christianity. A familiar tale. I was challenged by my stepsister to join the Asian American InterVarsity chapter to understand what Christians believed so that I could debunk it. I went into my first “large group” experience feeling kind of awkward....
