Well,
It seems forever since I have last posted on my blog. Oh God, I did miss it so bad to share my journey online. I am not sure why, but every time I write on here my life makes more sense. I love posting my seasonal updates and keep people on the loop with what is going on. Definitely my path took a super long jump, quite surreal actually, I’ll explain further below.
The last six months have been such a game changer, my book THIRTY is now part of the British Heritage, it’ll be preserved for generations to come, and it’s held on the shelves of the most notorious libraries such as Oxford University, Cambridge University, the National Libraries of Scotland and Wales and the College University of Dublin. You do know me by now, I am not whatsoever into the blink of things and do not like to brag myself, but this is a good feeling, I have no other words to express my sincere gratitude. Having said that, for those of you that still have not read my books, you can still order your copies on BookDepository. Both publications “Tales of Decadence and Empowerment, 2020” and “THIRTY, 2019” are still available to print on demand, and on BookDepository you can get them delivered anywhere in the world! I wrote both to be read and it’d be a waste if you missed them out. So go on and let me know what you think on the comments below or by leaving a review.
I don’t live in London anymore, I moved to the East Midlands. I let the pictures below tell you why. Finally I crowned another dream, living so close to nature and in the middle of nowhere is such a powerful remedy for my mental health. I know no one yet, and this is a good thing. I let go of everything and did not carry with me all of those clingy and needy people I have dealt with in the past – we all had to deal with those at least once in our lives, right?
It’s easier to lose your sense of self in big cities, too many people to respond to, too much noise. Also removing myself from social media and other types of modern communication devices, helped me to regain control of my own thoughts and no one is expecting to receive a reply back from me. This is the huge struggle today, too many expectations on relationships, too many requirements from both sides to have answers all the time. I feel so much better now, I don’t need to contact anyone and no one needs to contact me. Conversations are starting to become more of a pleasure rather than a one way system, to give or to receive.
This is not the end of me tho. Being a true believer of love and compassion, I still have so much to give to humanity. Faith pushes our spirits to grow and expand, and I think I have a lot of that. Think of me as able to give more than what the eye tricks to believe. These paintings show exactly what kind of evolution I am undertaking.
Although, who know me personally think of me as an escaper, I’d like to take the opportunity once more to express that following your heart does make no sense. And why should I give a reason to explain my actions to others? I leave this question for all of you to answer. If you can’t answer it yet, I strongly suggest you to dig deeper. The corners of our existence are scary, full of obstacles and uncomfortable memories. However, the path to lead us to ourselves is full of small conscious steps, which might seem taking too long at times, or sinking too rapidly, but eventually they all lead us to the light.
Always.
