Do we really have to be crushed with a severe heart broken, then... And only then, we're open for new lessons ? Karin
Life
Changing
I lost it, I don't have that 'unconditional' trust anymore to anyone even to those who I vowed to be the dearest to me. And it's a good feeling to realize that I've grown, I've changed. For so long I gave my trust to others, so they can decide what's best for me, they can … Continue reading Changing
Problems
I'm good with problems now .. not because my problems are so tiny, so it's easy to manage; I'm on good terms with problems because I know now that problems will be close by, as long as I live, and I need to accept that. I don't mind these long strings of problems. It's true … Continue reading Problems
Quiet
I used to worry whenever my life seemed quiet. I keep looking at far away, to check whether a storm is coming to my life. Not because I'm only happy when it rains... (Don't read it .. sing it! ๐๐) but because I'm so used with it. So when it is calm and sunny, I … Continue reading Quiet
Strength
Last week, I had my very first trail run, 25k. This pic was taken around 12-ish kilometers and I was still smiley and full of confidence.

I'm having that "curiosity kill the cat" moment.

My heart surely tells me that these toxic people are still ... Toxic … Continue reading Curiosity

One day I was just so fed up with every negative thought in my own head, so I just said: I'm done okay... I'm done worrying about everything at any given time. I am not doing this anymore. So what if I have a lot of debts? So what if I failed my first marriage, … Continue reading Unapologetic
Today
Hello Ms Ashworth, You have no idea of who I am but I could confirm that you saved me many times... In a weird logarithmic way... Every time I felt the day was dark, your poem somehow found me, and when I read it, it seemed like you spoke to me directly about whatever problem … Continue reading Today
Room
Yep, I'm building a bigger room for me. A spacious room for forgiveness, I forgive myself for all the decisions that felt so utterly wrong. Of course I feel the grief, but that's because I'm human, and there's nothing wrong with being hurt and disappointed.. but I am no longer a victim of anyone's wrong … Continue reading Room
The answer
Have you ever heard a story about Salvador Dali who is looking for inspiration in his sleep; he'll take a nap while holding a series of keys so at the verge of his dream, the keys will fall from his hand and wake him up. By this way, he'll still remember his dream and paint … Continue reading The answer
