The Coffee of Culture

by n.m.z | i wrote this for a coursera course lol

In a world of hustle and bustle

The coffee shop is a sanctuary

Music blaring, machines whirring

People chatting, coffee stirring

With a scent of goodness

And the warming of our hearts

Even just the ambiance

It’s like a work of art

Coffee is served as fuel

And its culture is sweet

As far as discoveries go

Delightful beverages may be our greatest feat

sometimes it feels like I’m supposed to come with a disclaimer. like I don’t trust myself to behave right or others to get me. like this is me i want to be authentic and express my existence but like pls don't judge me or make fun of me because i am just ~being myself~.

i'm trying to worry about this sort of thing less but i spent many years trapped in that kind of thinking and being so i still find myself making big explanations for why i am the way i am, was the way i was, post the way i post, do the things i do. but fuck it, i just wanna be and whoever resonates with me stays, whoever doesn't - goes away and i've just gotta learn to be okay with that... you know?

page one of my new sketchbook | watercolor pencils

i haven’t done art on a physical (non digital) surface in a long time but i’ve been challenging myself to make more art these days and figured a sketchbook would be a great place to practice.

this is the first time i use watercolor pencils and a water brush, the kind you fill up with water.

anyone have any ideas for what i should draw on page 2? this is a mixed media sketchbook so it won’t just be watercolor

great things take time, it’s worth it to keep working on your projects & goals — even if you aren’t seeing external validation yet

be okay without instant gratification, fast growth, thousands of followers/views/customers from the jump - make an effort, do the work, and you’ll make progress toward your goals.

i’ve been working on several projects lately and i’m really proud of how far i’ve come. one of them is a website, blog, shop, and social media presence entitled “hopeful narratives.” it’s a place where i feel like i’m contributing to the world and could potentially positively impact peoples lives. part of my purpose, i feel like, is to show people that you can take shit you’ve been through and turn it into something positive for yourself and others for years to come. it’s to create beautiful from the depths of my darkness — whether that’s in the form of blog posts, designs, art, poetry, music, whatever.

i have so many dreams that i’ve set out to follow and i believe in myself enough to pursue them and my personal development. and that’s what hopeful narratives is all about. i have some posts about self care, productivity, life, etc and it’s written from my neurodivergent, healing/recovery lens. i hope it helps at least one person to have hope and get motivated to go after their dreams too!

Perfect timing

by nmz, 2020

It boggles the mind to think about how timing is divine.

How it all came together, fell apart,

and fell into place in the way it was meant to.

I see now how points in time

moments from the past

set me up for this very moment.

Isn’t it beautiful how everything comes together?

Sometimes so smoothly and others with great delay and uncertainty.

As I finally take comfort in the fact that what’s meant for me

will never pass me and that all is not always the way it seems - I can have trust.
