يعني انت قد شوشت استقرارك اولريدي
و تخليت عامدا عن مجمل عاداتك و متعوداتك
مسافرا مغيرا متطلعا
متحملا ساعات الحجز الجوية الغير انسانية
و تعامل القطيع المطاراتي
و التعذيب الرهيب في الالتزام بحجوزات الطيران و تذاكرها و مخاطراتها

To let go isn't to forget, not to think about, or ignore. It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn't about winning or losing. It’s not about pride and it’s not about how you appear, and it’s not obsessing or dwelling on the past. Letting go isn't blocking memories o... Read more of this blog post »

Being a writer and an artist means that I'm constantly flip-flopping from one discipline to the next, and it's a great way to go! It's easy to become writing-intensive and to get lost in your written world... it's a nice feeling getting lost in your writing but sometimes it can create an overload...
