Introduction to My Articles

Seabert Yuan

What is this?

So what is this section? This is a section devoted for me to write about whatever, whenever, for no reason at all. I will write about a variety of subjects such as my life, my experiences, as well as reviews. The best part? Nobody will see this! I can be as cringey as I need be!

Why is it so ugly?

I am glad you asked! As the architects would say, "form follows function." Is that just an excuse for me not to do CSS? Maybe. Will I fix it? No. Maybe. (If I get bored)


recent works

A shoutout to Anthony Gong.

If you're interested.

There's something magical about reading a brother's writing. There's this aspect of discovering an entire new dimension to them that makes reading their works so fascinating. I cannot lie, I had been chained down by ego and indifference, weighed down by the anchor of selfishness and pride, that I couldn't truly appreciate the cosmic force of the little, delicate words sprawled (or rather, carefully placed) across a page by someone who I can consider so close they're a part of me.

It's interesting. But the reason I write this is to acknowledge his incredible writing. He has inspired me to do my own writing and to update this website. I am grateful for his words because sharing the language of the soul is one of my greatest fears and challenges.

The way he uses language provokes thought and emotion. It provokes wonder, sorrow, and love. I have read his works many times now and just wish he would update his website with more.

A quick thought about the mind.

It's more powerful than we think. The placebo effect is well documented and well studied. But anecdotally, how I think changes my day from a lazy one, to a productive one. It changes my 3km run into a 5km run. The difference between winning a game and losing a game in badminton is literally how much you can convince yourself that playing is more fun than being pissed because of your ego.
