Modern Times
A thought has been bugging me lately about how people make money on social media. There are so many “influencers” nowadays, that is truly hard to believe that the purpose of those people’s lives is creating content. I think that thinking about the meaning of life will come to everyone one day or another. And…

10 Reasons NOT to be like Amber Heard
If you’ve been reading my blog, you know that I haven’t posted in a while, although I do want to and you do know that I don’t post celebrity stuff, however, Johnny Depp is my favourite actor of all times. He’s always had interesting roles and to be brutally honest, he’s an artist: from the…

Labels & LGBTQA+
The author of a book I read claimed she hates labels. She had written a male-male (MM) romance (sex description included) and her characters were trying to not be labeled as gay because it was the first time they were doing such a thing and despite the fact that they enjoyed each other’s company, they…

Focus on ROI
How many times have you heard this phrase? “Focus on ROI”. Basically we are told and taught that we should focus on what’s in it for us, right? What will return to us from our investment. Why can’t we do something out of kindness, without expecting returns on our investments? Granted, in business, whatever it’s…

Where is the life?
You wake up in the morning and you unlock your phone. The screen lights up and you glimpse at all the notifications, useless ones, important one, unexpected ones, looking for the ones that should have been there, but are missing. You start scrolling different apps, trying to “catch up with things” (how much did you…

Disappointements
I wonder why we are so keen on not disappointing others, but we have no real issues with disappointing ourselves… It really takes a toll on us, doesn’t it? Have you noticed how easy it is to just find excuses or get over the fact that we didn’t do what we ourselves planned to? Let…

Hate vs. Love
Dunno if you’re noticed, but it’s a lot easier to be mean than to be nice. Why’s that, I wonder? Is it the conservation instinct or simply just because we are so bombarded with information that we feel the need to put up all our walls and we react before we filter or understand our…

Modern Women
As a matter of fact, I don’t have a very good opinion on modern women. Most of them don’t have a back bone. They don’t take responsibility for what they should be doing as a woman. They demand and demand, yet they don’t offer too much in return. Makes you wonder where’s that silly equality…

Comfort vs. Growth
What do you think of teens these days compared with your own self, back in the day? Have you thought about it? Are you able to assess how things have changed since you were young and life was filled with books and atlases compared to tablets and smartphones? It’s amazing how lazy children have become.…

What’s the rush?
So… I saw this Instagram story with a young psychologist saying that she is trying to get rid of the habit of using her phone right before bedtime. The other night, I placed it on the cabinet which is slightly farther away from the bed. It was on silent mode. I sneaked into the covers…

For or Against ourselves
A thought popped into my mind the other day. Why are we so eager to not disappoint the others? Why do we care about what they think about us? Let’s get this straight: I am not implying we shouldn’t care about what others think. I just wonder why we are so eager to do things…

Monkey see, monkey do
We tend to blame people for imitating others, but when it comes down to it, isn’t life just that in the beginning? We imitated the adults when we start walking. It’s not like they sit behind us and put our feet one in front of the other. Or take laughing, for another example. No one…

Respect me first. Love me later.
Don’t say the words. Show the feeling behind them before anything else. What do I mean by that? Definitely nothing as trivial as what love apparently is these days. I am talking about respect. Hardcore respect. People say respect is not a given. Instead it’s earned. That’s true. It’s also true that if you want…

Life is like a box of chocolates…
No, it ain’t. When you open a box of chocolates and start eating the ones you are uncertain about, you don’t shove them in your mouth completely. You just take a small bite, chew a bit and see if you’d like another bite. right? If you don’t like it, you can spit it out and…

Hypocrisy
A strong word for a title, huh? But let me tell you what I mean by it, oki? A few days before I saw on a fitness girl influencer’s instastory that she was talking about something disturbing that had happened to her during one of the live workout she did. I was curious so I…

Why don’t we believe in…
…people giving out free stuff? As in, when we see it’s a new business trying to make its way through the market with a giveaway, why would you not trust it? Why is it that we only trust people who seem to have a benefit from helping us? Are they really that much more trustworthy?!…

Growth and Change
Growing together means nothing more than being part of your partner’s change. That’s why we are so surprised of how someone changed when we meet them after a long time. It’s only because we didn’t witness their change throughout the time we weren’t together. We don’t always grow, but we do change constantly. Being next…
Keep readingShow it if you mean it
If you say you’re excited, I’ll believe you *if* you’re going to show it, too. If the behaviour doesn’t match the words, then questions will pop into my mind. 🧐 Don’t y’all feel the same?… Lately so many people say with the straightest of faces “I’m sooooo excited to do this and that”. How can…

Payback
You know that saying that goes something like “I don’t get mad, I get even”? I don’t know who said it and, to be honest, I am too lazy right now to look it up (on a side note, if we didn’t have internet, I would have probably remembered who said it…). Question for this…

Routine = Expectations
When you do the same things the same way every single day, you know how your day is going to unfold. I am not talking about planning your day. That’s something totally different. I mean doing the same things every day, in the same order. Routines are good. They give us a sense of comfort,…

Where we assign value
Money has value because we assign it to it. Without us saying “money is worth this or that”, there won’t be anything to it, right? I was thinking about what money is and I realized that it might just be just a physical quantifiable measurement of time. Years don’t count, because you can’t see years,…

Multitasking
Puteți să multitask? Vă iese bine? Câte task-uri puteți face deodată? Am fost învățați că este imperativ să putem să multitask, nu? Că firma unde o să ne angajăm asta își dorește și dacă putem să o facem, o să avem un avantaj în fața celorlalți candidați. Dar… Oare chiar așa e și în viața…

Information vs. Education
There’s a meme on the internet saying something along these lines: “remember when we thought that lack of information was the cause of people being stupid? Yeah. That wasn’t it.” I can’t find it easily and to be honest, I can’t be bothered to look for it. I know that you know which one I…

Valori
Mă tot gândesc cum să scriu articolul acesta de ceva timp. Stau și mă gândesc dacă nu cumva din cauza vârstei gândesc așa, deși la 33 de ani nu ar trebui să îmi fac prea multe probleme, nu? Nici nu știu cum să încep, așa că o să aștern gândurile așa cum vin. În primul…

Bad things
Do you know those words (that will probably become a saying soon) “You did a bad thing. You’re not a bad person.”? What do you think about them? I believe they are very real because every person at one point or another in their life will end up hurting the people around them. Why? Simply…

Not giving a fuck
I guess people are quite stressed out from modern living. Despite our lives being more comfortable than ever, we find new and new ways to be miserable. Because we like the feeling of happiness when the misery goes away. Perhaps… :-) Anyway, along came stress. And stress accumulates and drags us down. Then, we found…

Empowerment
Lately we’ve been witnessing a rise in women empowerment content. For example… the latest Star Wars film. Oh, you do have to watch this video below about it. It’s hilarious! Unfortunately it’s also very true… I shouldn’t digress. I was saying that we are witnessing a trend of women empowerment content that’s being released. That’s…

What a wonderful world!
Sometimes I think of it as Louis Armstrong saw it in his exquisite song. Remember it? Other times, I just say it in a very… sarcastic tone. Observing people’s reactions has been for years one of my personal curiosities. To be honest, what I have noticed the most is that people don’t really know how…

Ups and Downs
Life is quite simple. There are good times and then there are challenging ones. But they are only good or bad as we see them from our perspective, isn’t it? It’s the way we perceive life: we either feel it’s tough or easy. No matter how challenging it can get, you have to know you…

Good morning, lovely people!
Ce mai faceți? :-) Toată lumea bine, sănătoasă? Anyone missed me and my bright ideas? :-)) Adevărul este că a trecut ceva timp de când am scris aici ultima dată, însă intenționez să revin în forță și mai mult decât atât să pun blog-ul în ordine. O să încep să scriu mai multe articole în…

Viață virtuală
La cum este lumea în ziua de astăzi, este „normal” să avem o viață virtuală. Cât timp alocăm și ce „ne iese” din acea viață virtuală este decizia fiecăruia în parte. Sunt mulți mini-influencer-i care postează la stories absolut tot ce fac! Ceea ce mi se pare interesant este că vezi cum iau decizii unele…

Să citești o carte este un lucru extraordinar. Vorbim de beletristică acum, oki? :-) Pe lângă faptul că intri într-o altă lume, îți dă o vedere asupra a ce gândește autorul. Mi se pare extraordinar și mă bucur că pot și eu să creez astfel de lumi în cărțile pe care le-am scris. Însă de…

Noi de atunci și noi de acum
Mi-am dat seama zilele trecute care este diferenta dintre copii și adulți. Dintre noi de atunci versus noi de acum. Știți care e? Cât vorbim. Nu putem să zicem că atunci când eram mici vorbeam mult și prost. Nu, nu, nu. Vorbeam mult din lipsă de experiență; să ne auzim vocea și să ne exersăm…
