So That I`ll know what to do (on dating fear, worry and hesitation)

Do you ever ask yourself, Where is this going ? Should I trust him/her? Or is this something worth fighting for ?

Ever since I started having crushes, meeting guys, beginning relationships (yes I dated someone for a year after the abusive relationship), theres a thing that I have done. I`ve asked for a sign that would show me which way to turn.
When I was younger and before I entered those 4 years of my life that brought me a lot of doubt, difficulty to trust and fear of that what I don't know, I asked for a good positive sign, something that would say, this Is something good, this is worth a shot. I was a forever optimist.

After my experiences it has turned around, I always seem to ask for that other thing, Show me now if theres something I should know.. jank me out of it if this is not the road to follow.. Yeah.. I guess as I'm writing this I'm starting to sound like a Optimist/pessimist Pocahontas, You know, her and the Grandma Wisdom Tree :D ?  I mean I do have a Bonsai tree by my window, but as far as I know it doesn't talk and it certainly doesn't have a face and I'm not going to pick up a pen and "Tom Hanks" this one.. haha.

But seriously though.. Do you do this, ask your (I guess) Inner self after a sign like this, and hope that just maybe maybe you get an answer ? When your tired of getting hurt and just want a sign on what to do.

I don't exactly know who I'm asking these questions from, I'm not particularly religious, just someone or something that supposed to guide me, help me find my way and protect me from not getting hurt again,  and hopefully give me hope in love again. The strange thing however is.. a lot of times I seem to get an answer of some kind.. so whenever I'm starting to feel like "Now would be a good time to know".. I ask that.. and wait for a sign.

But, the thing is,  I'm getting tired of always asking the pessimist question, meaning that I ask for a sign that would show me whats wrong.. " Please show me what is bad " or " Smack me now so that I don't stick around to get smacked later.. "

So.. When will I be brave enough to ask something positive ? And to actually be brave enough to believe in it ? As I guided and helped to train a new volunteer at the Youth safe house last Sunday, we had a very interesting conversation about this.. The fear of the positive;  the fact that your so used to the bad or that things take a turn for the worst anyway,  that you get even more scared and suspicious ones something good shows up. You know ?

It takes a lot of courage to allow yourself to believe in those positive signs, and a lot of times they can fool you. But as I said so many times, one of the solutions to this one is time, you always have time, and if someone is in such a rush to get you and doesn't let you take your time, then there not the right person for you. Also, don't be afraid to look way from your idea or inbuilt belief of your karma. Yes, I know it might be very hard to believe that this time is might be good, This time my luck really might be turning. But as you look up for the warning signs...remember to always believe in love, and that you deserve it <3

Go - Do it for You (about the fear of solo-travel, not about crossing the Serengeti)

Solo-travel and exploring on your own often seems to be something that's considered too big of  an hurdle, an  uncomfortable area we`d rather avoid. As wolves we are more comfortable in a pack. I used to think like this myself. The thing is however, that we often (as singles in a busy world) find ourselves alone when we would have the time for an adventure. Schedules don't fit.  - Then there's of-course the differences in interests as well, and as being without a partner no one is  "obligated" (please take with sarcasm :D) to go with you on your holiday to extraordinary locations and events.  But hey, that said; - what a perfect time for you to do exactly what you always dreamed of ! All I want to say is go for it.   Don't sit around waiting for "maybe another time" due to the fear, and I'm not talking about the fear of being scared that something might happen on the way (that doesn't seem to be the first thing that pops into

Grandpas legacy

My grandpa passed away some years ago. For a long time during my teenage years and some into adulthood I felt light-years away from him, in our morals and teachings to follow. I was only looking at him like a priest, with his bible, a hungry need for being in the spotlight (he was a well liked radio host, preacher, author, playwright, ceremony holder, documentary film maker, pilgrim arranger, met the pope once- you name it). When I was feeling down at the age of 17 he wrote me a letter about watching more of TV7 (a local conservative evangelical christian channel), he told me it made his days brighter and that I should try it too. PS. He was not conservative, I think. We never talked much- not really. He had 3 grandchildren.  I do not think that he ever really knew me, and neither did I take my time to view him as a person behind the priesthood which he so often talked about . But when I look back on him now- as I found myself and stand supported, I can see past the job he had chosen (

To all my busy friends, show up in my life too- it matters

I would run cartwheels right where I stood if you showed up at my doorstep, if you suddenly sat in the audience during my Indian dance or Improv theater performance.  I would remember it forever if you showed up at the airport to say goodbye for now or welcome back,  I would love for you to ask me where in the world I am at.  I would love for you to reach out to me and ask us to read the same book simultaneously and then meet over coffee to share our thoughts, It doesn't take much time out of your schedule or much effort of sorts, just a suggestion, a thought.  I would love to go out for a joint run or jog- maybe for once right here in my hood- you could use my studio apartments little one person shower,  My home, my little wonderful life- You know you are welcome here too.  Meet me in my life, see where I live and what I do, it might not be marriage and children, or a big suburban house with a yard, but it is me, your friend- still hanging on at the other end.  Someone who shows u
