“Let me be that I am and seek not to alter me” – William Shakespeare This quote captioning a well orchastrated picture would be the exact thing that would earn me some Instagram clout. Now my life is valid, now it has value, now that it has been seen… This thought has been haunting me […]
Lately I’ve been on the move, doing things, going places, thinking thoughts, lately. Lately I’ve been thinking through, my life, my path, my people too, lately. Lately I’ve been digging deep, into my being, my heart, my soul, lately. Lately I’ve been asking questions, on who I am, what I want, why even, lately. Lately […]
That one day you will be living in the city of your dreams / That one day day you will be living the life you hadn’t even dreamed of / That one day you will be living life outside the usual narrative, and it will be fabulous / That one day you will be sitting […]
