On the lookout for my inner self
A personal crisis, the loss of beloved friends and a life changing trip to Japan.
A few reasons why I started collecting my very personal thoughts along the way of finding my inner self.
This blog is a self-therapy. Writing down my feelings on this website is healing.
Why I share them? They might inspire other people who find themselves in a similar stage of life.
One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.
This quote by Jack Kerouac from ‘The Dharma Bums’ inspired me how to express my thoughts and feelings about my life and adventures.
I believe in the power of pictures in combination with simple text.

The people I met that shaped me
• latest memory •
I have met a bunch of people in my life. Good and bad. And all of them shaped me. Some more, some less. But they surely had an impact. For some, when I look back, our memories make me smile. But for some, when I look back, my heart jumps with joy and fulfilment. Not only did we have great talks and stuff but also did we share adventures and moments that have been extremely intense to me. A lake, the mountains, the ocean, the wind in my hair … this sense of being totally free and close to the higher powers are all what these moments have in common. Like this one at the Great Salt Lake in Utah USA with my special friend Christy who took this breathtaking photo of me.
What if it is not a crisis
• latest confession •
2 weeks ago I had dinner with my friend at our favourite sushi restaurant to catch up on life and stuff. I told her about what was bothering me a lot recently and she said ‘What if the so called midlife crisis is actually not a crisis. What if it is a breaking out!’ I think that she really nailed it! I raise 3 kids. I care for my spouse, parents and family. I work for a living. But as I move on in the stages of life I start feeling that some ties have kept me from freely doing what I feel deeply inside of myself. What I first diagnosed as a crises is indeed a BREAKING out and I fully embrace it!
