Loving people come in various forms but I think the most potent disposition of love is found in friendship. In Aristotle's philosophy of friendship, it can exist for pleasure or utility, but the best kinds of friendship exist without purpose. Essentially, the best kind of friendship is the "useless one", a friendship that just is. This… Continue reading COLOURS OF FRIENDS
WE ARE A SYMPHONY
NFTs as a means to revolutionalize art provenance. Symphony: harmony in music or colour, a harmonious combination of elements... We have the capacity to inhabit as many versions of ourselves as we can create. For a long time now, I have been plagued with the constant meditation on the various forms we demonstrate living and… Continue reading WE ARE A SYMPHONY
DEFINITION
Adapted from Pinterest A statement of the meaning of a word, word group, or a sign, or symbol. Clarity of visual presentation, distinctness of outline or detail. See Individual Perspective... As a writer it is easy to conceptualize words as meanings and this is not a trait peculiar to writers alone, it is the very… Continue reading DEFINITION
How Quickly we lose the Awe
Art by Bo Feng Lin. In childhood, daily living was about curiosity and wonder. The need for sensuality, to experience by touch, taste, sound, and smell. The imaginary colours of dreams and make-believe often cloud even reality. For example, my brother's believed they really could be Spider-Man if they got bit by a spider and… Continue reading How Quickly we lose the Awe
The Ride
Illustrator-Anne Uku This Saturday started grey, typical of a winter mood only that it is autumn. Leaves are starting to fall, turning the shade of reddish-brown, burnt orange, the crackle sound of crunch under fashionable or practical boots. The two friends stirred contemplating breakfast and wondered how they were ever going to get out of… Continue reading The Ride
REJECTION
Painting by Nora Ampova The etymological interpretation of rejection in Latin is retrieved from the word rēicere which means thrown out... Nothing describes the sting of rejection better than the emotion of denial and ostracization even when we did not particularly care to be chosen. Beauty, fame, wealth, or even skills does not preserve one… Continue reading REJECTION
On the other side
Painting by Julian Opie When Adele sang "Hello", never in my wildest dream did I imagine that I'd be using my lunch break to draft the implication of a call from the perspective of the caller and the receiver. Most of what I will consider my childhood was spent out of my home than in… Continue reading On the other side

I MISS THE THINGS I USED TO WORRY ABOUT
Adapted from Pinterest. I heard this line from a movie and it inspired this post.. At this phase of my life, I am particular about achievements and milestones, when specific events happen for me? For instance, when will I find the one or will the one ever find me?😂 When will I make my first… Continue reading I MISS THE THINGS I USED TO WORRY ABOUT
Impersonating your happiness
Culled from Pinterest. We call it imagination but I'd call it courting an idea. It's similar to marinating in cook speak. We all function on this level. For some imagining is vivid while for some others, it is a mirage, easily fading away, not so easy to get a hold of. The vivid dreamers walk… Continue reading Impersonating your happiness
