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.

February 28, 2025February 28, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Artist: Leroy Campbell May we remember all our blessings and forget all our losses I know a man that reminds me of the simple things. The need to focus on what is present than what is lacking.

Artist: Kathy Jones To love is to hurt but even grieving comes to an end... As in a reverie, she thought, It wasn't that long ago she felt the esctasy of a new connection with the trappings that felt like love, the days were brighter, the hard days seemed to pass like a breeze, life… Continue reading Now that we’ve closed the door

The Energy Collector

February 14, 2025February 14, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Artist: Pichardo Egea Love is in the air but not every story starts the same. When he woke up this morning he knew it was not going to be a great day but this had nothing to do with him or maybe it does since he has no mastery over carrying the weight of the… Continue reading The Energy Collector

Avenoir

February 7, 2025February 7, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Artist: Koby Martin The desire to see memories in advance... When I came across this word, I instantly chuckled because I have experienced this desire.

Love can change your life

January 31, 2025January 31, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Artist: Sanjo_lawal This post is inspired by another post where a woman described how her grandmother raised her even when she originally refused to support her grandson for taking responsibility for another man's child. One thing is constant in the many ways we define love: It is much more than definitions; it is embodiment and… Continue reading Love can change your life

Just to be chosen

January 24, 2025January 24, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Art by ianmwesiga I wrote a post detailing the need to ask from where? When people say they love us. I guess this is a sort of sequel... This post was inspired by a reality TV show I was watching over the weekend when one of the actors said "I am glad he chose me"… Continue reading Just to be chosen

Yearning

January 17, 2025January 17, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Painting by Norma Escoto You are scared to let go because you don't know if better will come... Have you ever had feelings you couldn't mutter out loud, feelings you can't bring yourself to name because you know once you do everything has to change and you are not ready for that change? Even though… Continue reading Yearning

Fringe People

January 10, 2025January 10, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Artist unknown If you look hard enough, you are not that different from everyone else... Perfect description, you find yourself in a group, laughing, drinking, smirking, then zoning out. As though you were watching from the window with a wistfulness that leaves you in awe of what it feels like to fully belong. Being both… Continue reading Fringe People

A compilation of love

January 3, 2025January 3, 2025 Dcconnoisseur

Artist unknown Do you remember how your favorite people came into your life? If you can, you'd see the tapestry of wonder and the compilation of love that forms you. They say it all begins with hey, and again at "I do" but I remember mine started with do you think we should change our… Continue reading A compilation of love

IF SOUL MATES EXIST

December 27, 2024December 27, 2024 Dcconnoisseur

Artist unknown It was on a date I first asked this question: what is the value of a great relationship? By the way, I don't think that guy is ever going to return. I ended asking the most controversial questions and spilling all my potential dating problems. LOL. These are some of the functions of… Continue reading IF SOUL MATES EXIST
