I bet most of us have had days when we critically analyze many of our actions and it’s consequences. Or worried about the numerous different outcomes according to our actions or words. Run through our head a bunch of simulations of what might happen or how someone might take it.
We wonder, should I [...]

Awhile back there’s was a new classmate in my school who happened to from my hometown (rare thing). We started chatting, just really trying to know a little bit more about each other, and in the middle of it I asked her how old she was. She did tell me her age but [...]

How many times have we labeled ourselves as lazy or shy or whatnot and advertise it to the whole world?
We insist on labeling ourselves with what we believe we are and aren’t capable of doing. How many times have we used a longtime label as an excuse to avoid something? I [...]

Everyone always prejudges, that’s what first impressions are. But how accurate can these be when they’re mostly based on preconceptions and stereotyping? How often is it convenient for us to not question them?
I’m not going to talk about the big issues here, such as racism, xenophobia, homophobia and so on. No. I want [...]

Imperfection.
Perfection is meaningless without imperfection.
Imperfection makes us beautiful and unique. We have been perfectly mechanically made, and imperfections is what distinguishes us.
Perfection is a fantasy, simply unattainable and that’s what makes it so desirable. The imperfect is the unexpected feature that stands out in the middle of perfection. This imperfection gives us [...]

So, why stick to only one profession or field of income?!
We are multi-dimensional beings. We can have a great variety of interests, dedicate ourselves to more than one at a time and get great results.
So, why stick to only one profession or field of income?!
Ever since I was little I’ve always been into [...]

No one likes feeling like a failure. But that’s only a perspective…
If no one ever tried out for their dreams, then no one would ever reach them! And I doubt many got there on their first try!
You’re afraid of being disappointed, so you choose to be disappointed ahead of time.
You’re afraid you’ll [...]
We all got insecurities that need work. And recently, as I started to write more here on the blog, I acknowledged one more. It’s not new, it’s always been with me, but just now I fully realize it.
“Why should I write something that millions of people already wrote about?”
Why not? Millions wrote about and millions [...]

In the modern day, most of us wear it to express ourselves, our individuality or our sense of belonging to a group, or even perhaps both.
Just like the clothes we wear, our jewelry might say something about us. We choose what we identify with and we wear. We are expressing a part [...]

Life is simple. It really is! This is something I’ve realized at an early age and I still stand by it.
The tricky thing is, we are the ones that complicate it! I know, I’m rather complicated. We let our fears, mainly, desires and doubts interfere in the way we perceive our lives. [...]

Have you ever been a in a really good mood, feeling positive and optimistic about yourself, your life and your decisions, only to be brought down by someone else? Someone whom you expected to share it with, only to have them kill it for you.
Sometimes it feels like taking a beating from someone [...]
Three years ago I entered jewelry school. I went in curious, and learned that I liked it more than I imagined. But now there’s been something bothering me.
I like working with metals and making jewelry out of it. But then, lately, I feel like the end result is just something superficial and materialist! I don’t [...]

I’m always curious about this subject of what flatters different people. I think I first got aware of this subject applied in jewelry with a Susannah and Trinny book, “What You Wear Can Change Your Life”. The book itself didn’t reveal much, so I tried to look around for more information on this.
So [...]
This is just a little bit of minor venting.
A while ago I met a group people, who were all into art and connected to it in some way. And in introductory conversation they all always answered the same to my question: “What is it that you do?”. “I’m an Artist!” they said back and stared. [...]
