I haven't seen anything prettier than a budding friendship between two women, regardless of their ages; Ah! The sight of two souls of the same kin syncing! What can possibly be deeper than a woman caressing the scars of another woman? They do that, not because they sympathize, but because they carry the same scars, the unseen kind, visible only to the eyes of those who have endured. What's more beautiful than the solace of a soldier in a war that is found in the calming shoulder of another?

Aging is hot. Gray hairs are hot. Smile lines are hot. Get with it.

I just want you to know: No one else is entitled to make decisions over your body. Other people are not allowed to decide if you shave or not, how you cut your hair or color it, how you gain or loose weight. Not what you do with your nails, not what type of contraception you use, not who you have sex with, not what you eat. You decide. It's your body. And people WILL subtely try to control you or influence you.

I literally love this.

I couldn't stop laughing for 20 minutes.

No joke.

I’m so big on the phrase ‘just say that’ because honestly that’s all you have to do, just say it.

Some little known facts about me:

Art and prayer lifted me out of depression in Msrch 2016, only after that I considered myself an 'artist'.

I have never left a partner, I was always the one who got cheated on or who got left behind.

I started speaking around age 3 and almost got into a primary school for handicapped children because I was so shy to speak.

Today I speak 3 languages fluently (German, French, English) and understand Lingala and Spanish while learning new languages in the future.

I wanted to become a lawyer until I was 18 years or pro football player until I was 21 years old.

In my opinion, Native Americans, children and Romani people are discriminated against, excluded from politics and society in ways that even the most liberal thibkers and scientists havent cared enough to explore.

I'm a homosexual, demisexual and sapiosexual, with phases of adexuality and hypersexuality, even if you dont believe me.

Trust me, finding love as the only black boy in my school was hard enough.

I battled with porn addiction for 14 out of 27 years and can finally consider myself a victor.

Everyone wants a hero, but anyone could be a hero. It's the role of a courageous helper, not a supernatural gift of elite muscular strength.

I vowed to never wear diamonds unless I have witnessed how that was extracted and felt okay with the procedure. So I'll probabky only wear synthetic diamonds, if any.

Sometimes I feel alone and misunderstood. Very intensely.

Every now and then, I think about going vegan or at least vegetarian.

My father is my role model and he knows it, but we both want for me to surpass him.

As a golden child that became black sheep in my family, and having been teacher's pet and class rep that almost got expelled from school, I feel like understanding the ups and downs of popularity and reputation from my life experience.

My 20s are full of struggles and I dont want to portray myself in any way that glamorizes and embellishes my financial and familial hardships.

But because I'm going through it, I want to encourage you to never give up your ideals and goals.

Because I wont let my enviroment hold back my potential and neither should you.

Especially knowing who you are and following your heart despite who doesnt get it

I found you all by being radically myself, started on Instagram depressed 2016, with pencil sketches and cover songs.

This has always been a blog.

No influencer or activist platform, but my personal life through images, texts, and sounds all by me or by what inspired me at the moment.

Now I got new friends in different cities, new skills in music and literature and people study my material to othwr immigrants to learn high level vocab and wordplay

Humbled by my biological and Heavenly fathers who both convinced me to give this thing called life another honest shot

This has always been a blog.

A personal blog.

Not a blog for travellers or athletes, not about reviewing restaurants or technical gear, not about showcasing my life as a highlight reel and omitting the lows.

Instead I found it liberating to share what was on my heart, so that we may grow and heal together.

I showed you where I was at in my life at all times. What my goals and aspirations were, wven when they changed, I told you why I pivot.

Changing is nothing to be ashamed of. It's necessary.

I know that some of you are not familiar with the concept of sharing your lives. Or joining a platform as a pwrson who uploads without making these uploads part of their job. These days, people do things publicly for praise and fame and privately for intimacy and safety.

But I challenged the notions of modern-day social media use because the fakeness I encountered disnt aid with my mental health when my parents said I enrolled for the wrong field in university. I should've studied to get a good job like they wanted. Instead, I chose to pursue my curiosities that I fancied the most to become more proficient and confident in my abilities.

I knew that I needed to create a job for myself because I could give myself what I needed.

This blog has been a great way to open up and to meet like minded people over the last few years. Some viewers left in earlier stages, some left during the pandemic when everything looked bleak (which I dont blame them for) and some joined later or never left since the early days.

Being yourself isn't genuine advice in our society: you should show something that people remember about you, but tone it down because otherwise, you're "too much".

But I tell you:

Be yourself and show your heart so often, even if you have less company than you like at times, because over time you will make a new friend who is yourself. And once you like yourself, really LIKE yourself to the point that advocating for your needs, arguments and dreams doesnt take much courage anymore, then you are ready to be a good friend to others because you wouldnt betray them or yourself in this society of conformists.

Either get to know me or judge me and learn nothing new
