Off late, life has been all about savouring moments, living more fully, being (a little) less afraid, and more present. It has also been about hard work - making hopes and dreams come true, little by little.
Sharing a special picture and some writing in this little corner of the world wide web that nobody really visits, anymore - and I quite prefer it this way. These days, I feel like making my web persona (or external persona, if you will), a little more anonymous - And my real self shine more, even when no-one's looking. Especially when no-one's looking.
🪕She sang into the night, while the bedside lamp painted the room a glowy shade of pink. There was nobody to hear her but a dozing cat. She was so beautiful then, but there was nobody to liste, or to see. But something told her to spell out the words sharp and clear, make the notes dance loudly and shrilly, speak her truth. And soon it was not her throat but her heart that was singing.
Just something that I wrote, a while back, as this actually happened. Here's to more such moments of finding the best in myself!
Love,

Think of it like this: you can go years without being in touch with yourself, too overwhelmed with the external noise, and you will never know.
You can go years without documenting what you feel because your feelings don't seem valid or important anymore.
You can do years without sharing your pain because it seems like it doesn't matter.
But it matters.
You have something to lose. This.
The last three months of 2022 were overwhelming(ly good). But mostly overwhelming. So many new experiences to absorb, personal limits to be pushed, and flights to be on. I went to two corners of the world, first the west, and then the east. San Fransisco and then Bali. I was incredibly lucky to pull out my old fashion rotting away in the cupboards, and mix and match it for the warm, cold and the windy. I saw wonderful art, collected memorabilia, and people and their stories. I met friends, old and new.
I pushed myself at work and finished projects and hosted events.
I had friends over, and we cooked, and we sang and made music.
In retrospect, my life almost felt like it was playing to the lyrics and music of this song (one of my favourites)!
Cheers to keeping the documentation here, alive. Because it's a good life✌🏼
