I’m in the train to home and when I look outside it’s completely dark. I realize that it has been quite some time that I’ve been riding a train in the dark. In the summer when the days were longer, I usually traveled in the light. Today was a long workday and now around 7.30pm the daylight has gone. It’s strange how that gives a different feeling to the days. It doesn’t seem that long ago that I w...
Searching for belonging
Isn’t that something we all do?
It’s that one big thing
That means it not just you
To belong to people you love
Or to a God somewhere far above
Perhaps to a group of friends or a good mate
To someone to whom you relate
To find belonging is also an answer to why you are here
Knowing what and who you’re living for in this atmosphere
Belonging will make you feel that you’...
Just recently I’ve rediscovered my love for writing once again
It might be digital at the moment, but soon I’ll add some paper and a pen
Putting thoughts down into written words is something special
And by doing it every day it also becomes more normal
A habit of writing 100 words a day
Helps growing my imagination quite some way
A story, a poem or just some thoughts I got
Can actually tell a lot

I’m searching for more joy in my life
Trying to learn something new every day
I think the key is to start on the inside
To change the way you think
About life, but more importantly about yourself
It’s hard not to judge your every move
To question the decisions you make
To actually applaud yourself for who you are
And for trying your best
I think there is more joy to be found
By accepting that y...
I’m in the train going home. After a fun weekend with my family it feels a bit lonely to be here by myself again. It’s already dark outside, so there is not much to see. I listen to some music on my headphones and I’m looking forward to the moment when the train will arrive. It seems to take forever with a few stops on stations between me and my destination. The journey is about two and a half hou...
Wake up with a song, was the advice a friend gave me the other day
It does make a difference is what I can now say
Still sometimes it can be a struggle to wake up and get out of bed
Especially when covered by warm comfy blankets and a soft pillow under your head
You can try as many alarm clocks as you want
But without a good reason to get up, your bed will keep the upper hand
I found out that the...
Peaceful I’m standing at end of the dock. The freezing air fills my nose with every breath. I love the view of the snow covered mountains in the distance. Except from the rippling water, it’s completely silent. It feels like I’m standing at the end of the world and I’m so happy to be here. Having left normal life for a moment to enjoy this quiet scenery. Life is a great adventure and it’s about mo...
One upon a time there was a big old castle, right next to a bit waterfall. Inside the castle lived a royal family. Even though there were no other people living nearby to rule over, they were officially the rulers of this beautiful kingdom. The king and king had a son and daughter and since there were no other children living in the are, they were each others best friends. They loved doing togethe...
The waters know what it means to be battered to and fro.
That’s such a beautiful image of how my days lately seem to go.
One day I feel excited, energized and full of inspiration.
The next day my alarm clock wakes me up with a feeling of desperation.
I think it was Bruce Lee who taught that you have to be like water, my friend.
I think I understand a bit of what he meant.
It’s okay if not every ...
He’s been waiting the whole day for this moment. Since 4AM in the morning he’s been looking forward to taking this picture and finally his patience is being rewarded. In a bright red cabrio sports car the movie stars are heading in his direction. He takes a few pictures and walks closer to the crossroads. Exactly as he planned the traffic light jumps to red and the car has to stop. He takes a few ...
