Dream big, take risks
I was always someone who dreamed big. There were so many things I was sure I was going to do once I was a grownup. There were also plenty of people in my life making fun of me for those dreams, for not wanting to follow the normal path. Those people didn’t understand what I…

Being an adult is strange
One of the strangest things about being an adult is realizing that people you thought you knew, people you’ve known all of your life, aren’t who you thought at all. I understand people getting emotional about events, or things or other people. I do get emotional sometimes. But then I calm down, try to put…

The kindness of strangers
I feel like a lot of people have forgotten that it’s the small things that matter. Like a bus driver wishing you a nice day when you get off. A car stopping for a pedestrian and smiling at them. Being patient and understanding towards the person working behind the counter when it takes a little…

There is change in the air

Find your purpose in life
There is nothing quite like the feeling you get when you found yourself and the path you’re supposed to be on. There’s an inner quietness, peace really. Even if everything around you is a mess, even if you’re struggling because of the choice to follow your dream, the path you’re supposed to be on. Everything…

Small moments
There small moments in our lives that are looked at as insignificant in the big picture to other people when you tell them about them but still mean more than anything to you. A few weeks ago, I was at my mom’s cleaning a new trunk I got outside in her garden. The weather was…

Music is something you should feel
Do you know the feeling when you listen to a new album and every single song just speaks to you? The way the words, the music touches you, just pull you in and you are completely absorbed by it? It is not something that happens to me often, there are usually four to six songs…
