Whatever we are talking about, depending on where we are looking, who we are asking, we can find polar opposite views, opinions, experiences about it. Simple example is a restaurant review. There is a nasty, negative rating and on the very same day another happy, positive one. How will you know which one is to […]
In the past couple of days (again) my mind and heart were all about my mum, who passed nearly 3 years ago. She was an incredible woman. Intelligent, wise, beautiful, smartly funny, with an amazing sense of reading people’s character. Seemed very much like someone who lived life on her own terms. Still, she might […]
Coming close to the end of a not so easy year. Whatever you believe, to whomever you believe, how many (un)answered questions you might have, whatever you decided on, however many conversations you heard, took part in, however much you feared or cried, how much you (didn’t) care, however you went through this past year, […]

In my video on YouTube last week, I was talking about breakups, about the actual way of how to do it ‘well’. That is one (crucial) part of the whole process. Obviously, there is, as with everything, more to it. Like there are people who always break up just before the relationship would get to […]

On a seemingly lighter level, agreeing to things just to keep the peace, is actually also a trauma response that becomes part of life of a relationship dependent […]
It was nearly 6 years ago when I started a Facebook page with the intension of sharing some of my thoughts to help to heal, chill, learn, move forward or just simply ‘saying out loud’ some thoughts that one couldn’t or wouldn’t do for her/himself. Then a little over a year ago, as I had […]
We all experience it in our lives. Some of us more than once. Sometimes it gets brutal, sometimes smooth, some foreseeable, some completely unexpected.
