Something has changed. It doesn’t matter when, what, or why. Since then, I don’t see faces. Stories. People.
308. | Curse or tax?
I don’t buy cheap headphones because I don’t like music. It’s because I love life. And sometimes life keeps a pair of headphones for itself.
307. | Never Let Myself Down Again
Love at first hearing. How long does it take after everything falls apart? Thoughts on the terrace of a Vietnamese café.
298. | A real dream of happiness
I’m not happy because I know where the road leads. I’m happy because I love the way I’m walking.
292. | How do we care for shoes?
One Saturday morning, an Asian man showed me on his phone who he thought I was. They even sewed my shoes.
290. | There are no notes on the map
I’m actually collecting sounds, smells and feelings. Then one day a song comes on… and suddenly I’m standing on the same street again.
289. | Look for the gift, not the opinion!

288. | Sometimes I give. Sometimes I receive.
There are paths that are challenging. Yet they are the ones that show us most clearly who we really are as we move forward.
286. | Release
Instead of letting go, I now believe in integration. The pains of the past have not disappeared – I have learned to live with them. And to be happy.
285. | The shaman
Sometimes a single sentence can work on us for years. This story is about how a piece of advice I received sixteen years ago changed me.
