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.

HAPPINESS IS SIMPLISTIC

August 1, 2022August 1, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Photo by Miguel Porlan on Behance. One can actually be happy and not have everything one wants or needs. I don't think being happy means a perfect state of satisfaction in all things life and spirituality... I think happiness is hope for today and tomorrow. Happiness is not having enough and still feeling more than… Continue reading HAPPINESS IS SIMPLISTIC

HURRYING THROUGH THE MOMENTS

July 22, 2022July 22, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Anxiety Impatience Overthinking These words connote an inability to enjoy the present If you are anything like me, you can relate I think almost every adult can... Anxiety about bills Work pressure, politics, and tension Striving to have a life, to be seen, to be successful We have different definition of success but I think… Continue reading HURRYING THROUGH THE MOMENTS

THEMATIC “YOU”

July 4, 2022July 4, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Image from pinterest. This is me penning down random ideas... Some days I am shy to take up space, To dress too prettily. Some days I want to be loud, cheerful and full of myself but I forget and choose to comport myself instead. I know what you are thinking, "being loud is not a… Continue reading THEMATIC “YOU”

THE HARD DAYS.

June 20, 2022July 4, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Source: Pinterest. Life is beautiful. The unexpected turns are what keeps us on our toes. The uncertainties, the almost event.. When we almost touch what we want and think this is finally the breakthrough... Only to turn and find that it was all a mirage... You know what I mean right? You have felt it… Continue reading THE HARD DAYS.

WORD TRANSPORT

June 6, 2022June 6, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

I remember the first time I was transported by a book. Ok, maybe not the exact first time but the time I became capable of conceiving consciousness. The feeling was surreal, almost eternal. I got lost in time, in a space continuum. I cannot explain with words even as I craft letters now, how much… Continue reading WORD TRANSPORT

Lesson from my Father

March 23, 2022April 22, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

Today, I am on the side of parents. As Millenials, we like to prioritize our mental health, self-care, self-love, over every other thing and as much as this is great, it leads to certain blind spots, we become too self-absorbed. We think everything is about us, we believe we are more evolved so we know… Continue reading Lesson from my Father

BE THE FOOL. AREN’T YOU HAPPY?

March 22, 2022March 23, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

You know what? when you are truly happy, you'd know. Nothing else will matter. Not who is watching you laugh loudly or who'd be disturbed by your excitement. It won't matter if you perform all the cliche acts and do the corniest things ever. It won't matter if people think you are stupid or making… Continue reading BE THE FOOL. AREN’T YOU HAPPY?

ADHERING

March 7, 2022March 7, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

I am learning to use my voice even when I am not sure what I should be saying... I am learning to steer myself in the right direction when my thoughts start to stray. I am learning to accept gracefully what life throws my way and not play the victim... I am learning about love… Continue reading ADHERING

LESSON ON FORGIVENESS

March 1, 2022March 1, 2022 Dcconnoisseur

There are so many wise sayings on forgiveness. To err is human, to forgive divine... Forgiveness is what we do for ourselves not the other person... The most puzzling one is the duo, Forgive and Forget. Ah ah, I laugh in spanish. Is it just me that have come to realize how much those two… Continue reading LESSON ON FORGIVENESS
