On purpose (again)
Changes are afoot. I discovered that all my goals were an illusion. They self destructed as soon as I “reached” them (As much as one can reach a mirage in the middle of nothingness). Career success, being a good girl, … Continue reading

The Seeker’s quest never ends, yet outcome is always the same
Everyone has a nagging feeling that they are not who they should be, where they should be and who they should be with. That they have not done enough or the right stuff. That there is something else they need … Continue reading
Why do you want to help?
