I'm addicted to worry... I never realized that until today. This last week... I was experimenting with my own thoughts. I made notes about my thoughts at that particular moment... Sad, worry, the past, regret, another worry... And so on.... And yes.. almost every minute I worry about something. So .... I'll try to talk … Continue reading Addicted

Bienvenue 2024
No more resolution this year, I'm no good at keeping promises I made for myself and I blame myself relentlessly because of those broken promises. No more resolution this year, the future is not a place we know, not even a tiny part. The best time is now, the present, and to appreciate the "now" … Continue reading Bienvenue 2024

But I finished it, and I am so damn proud of my self, of these beautiful legs, of this body of mine. It was my very first half marathon and … Continue reading Half Marathon
Reverse
What if I reverse all ( or at the very least: most ... ) of the negative thoughts regarding my financial status? My salary is enough. I can pay my debts. A tiny bit of it every single time, but eventually I'll pay it off; all of it. I can also make savings: daily, weekly, … Continue reading Reverse

Paradoxical
The capacity to be alone is the capacity to love. It may look paradoxical to you, but it's not. It is an existential truth: only those people who are capable of being alone are capable of love, of sharing, of going into the deepest core of another person--without possessing the other, without becoming dependent on … Continue reading Paradoxical
