About

 

Welcome to The Journal of Self-Discovery, a self-titled motivational blog from Kai Darul.

Why The Journey of Self-Discovery?

The title, The Journey of Self-Discovery, came about from my love of learning more about myself in order to give more to others. I personally think that one can only give if she knows what she has, where she stands, and why she is here in this world. Thus, every day, I hope to learn and self-discover about the meaning of my life.
