The blessing and the curse

This age is incredibly amazing and terrible at the same time. I’m not going to talk about wealthy people and the poor. I’m going to focus on the troubles of the priviledged, haha.

Time has been lately on my mind. Some will say that handling time is just a matter of priorities, but I don’t think so. It’s rather a combination of family, work, school, social interaction, own free time and anything else you can think of. Do you see where I am going? Just naming all these makes me feel slightly uncomfortable.

We have many possibilities and also many responsibilities which complicate the course of our lives. I have a few experiences of extreme change in lifestyle – all thanks to living abroad. Having less friends around you, not pursuing our regular hobbies and many other factors influence our daily schedule.

It is peculiar – I have found a lot of freedom abroad. It is easier to change one’s habits and adapt – create new version of yourself. Coming back home, I always slowly slip back into what I have been. I tend to postpone all the things for „a more convenient time“ which never comes.


I always have to remind myself – NOW and HERE. Listening to what you feel deep down and going for it – even if you have to stop old habits – is becoming who you are. A happy person...
