Connoisseur of Memories

An open journal on thriving

  • Dcconoisseur Blog

Author: Dcconnoisseur

This writer seeks Ikigai- a life surrounded by meaning and spurred on by purpose. To exist without labels and labelling, to be confined yet free, to amplify each dimensions of existence. Outside this curated persona, I love to travel, hope to speak at Tedx one day and seek to deploy legality as a tool of social engineering.

THE TABLE TALK

March 3, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Image from Pinterest. Today is the day I will finally lend my voice to paper on this discussion. Honestly, I'd have preferred a round table talk on television with the originators of this question "what do you bring to the table?" Of course, this question can apply to every sphere of life but my flummox… Continue reading THE TABLE TALK

FRIENDS IN THE CHAPTERS

February 13, 2023February 13, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Nirvana by Sabantha. This blog post was triggered by a comment. "Dara, fun as always, I have missed you." Immediately I read those words, I just had a flashback and an epiphany at once. I remembered how far I and this person have come. We've almost gone the whole nine yards (why do they say… Continue reading FRIENDS IN THE CHAPTERS

Just another day in the mind of a savant

February 6, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Painting by Angeladawngamboa It is 4:39am and my creative juices are high. I have been itching to write for a while now but never seem to find the headspace to truly let it out. I have several inspirations but I just let it seat in my mind for a while. Sometimes I get so lost… Continue reading Just another day in the mind of a savant

FALSE ATTACHMENTS

January 23, 2023January 23, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Image from Pinterest. You meet a random stranger, smile, and for a moment the warmth makes you forget that the memory does not extend beyond that smile. Someone said "people build relatability" It is like the relationship we have with celebrities in our head because we watch them every day and relate with them on… Continue reading FALSE ATTACHMENTS

THE SORT OF THINGS THAT STICK WITH YOU

January 16, 2023January 16, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Image from Pinterest. A few days ago as I was returning from a mini shopping my mind conjured a memory by asking this question, "what is the worst insult you have ever received?" I remember that at the time when I thought of it I wanted to write about it but I was not sure… Continue reading THE SORT OF THINGS THAT STICK WITH YOU

STUMBLING ON PEOPLE

January 9, 2023January 9, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Brooklyn Dolly by Erin Robinson. The interesting thing about meeting people is that there is no one way to meet people even though there can be common denominators like on a trip, at work, in public transportation, at school, at a place of worship, in a pub or at a carnival. You already know where… Continue reading STUMBLING ON PEOPLE

EVERYDAY PEOPLE THAT’S YOU THAT’S ME

January 2, 2023January 2, 2023 Dcconnoisseur

Image from Pinterest. The title of this post is the beginning of a song from my childhood that heralds a television series I cannot remember much of now but I am nostalgic just thinking about it as I sing the opening lines in my mind it is like I am transported into memory and I… Continue reading EVERYDAY PEOPLE THAT’S YOU THAT’S ME

Curtain Call

December 30, 2022December 30, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Image from Pinterest. It is that time of the year when there is festivity, holiday spirit roaming, and bright nights created by artificial lights, the bursting urge to create pleasant memories, be with family, dwell in the warm embrace of love and unwind from the trauma of the year but in the typical human fashion… Continue reading Curtain Call

MAZE

December 21, 2022December 21, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Image from Pinterest The interesting thing about being a writer is having so many ideas run through your mind at once. Isolated ideas quite capable of becoming an epistle individually but somehow your mind finds a way to make connections between these disjointed concepts and actualize meaning. I am not sure writing is entirely about… Continue reading MAZE
