There is this misconception in the world that people without a certain degree, knowledge (studied it), experiences (children) and everything you can think of, doesn’t have the right to say, give advice or their opinion on the matter.
It triggers me, because the lack of that type of understanding is mind-blowing for me.
After 7,5 months staying and living in the United States of America (USA) I was excited to go back to my home country, Suriname. I was excited, because of how I would be perceived. But I was easily triggered.
There is a lot of cultural, emotional and physical baggage where I grew up my entire life.
You are raise with a set of values, morals, habits and so on.
You want to find on top of that your own identity.
Which for some is such a long process and journey.
Some never find out who they truly are.
For what I know; people have so much to say, there is always something to say and not in a positive way- more in a reproachfully manner.
Love Language to work a Long-Distance Relationship
Since July 17th, 2021 I am in a long-distance relationship with my American boyfriend. I am surviving it, but it hasn’t been easy. The relationship itself stands on its own and the only work we needed to do is communicating with each other. Constant and every day conversations. What t.f. would we communicate about every single day, you might ask? Well, for starters about his day, or mine. Me wanting to just have someone to listen to me, while he still sleeps. Keep in mind that our time difference is -4 hours on his side. When he still sleeps, my day already is bright and sunny or rainy, depends on the season. And the best part most of the times is his handsome face I just want to see or be annoyed by.
Every year when the clock strikes 12, and even before, we set New Years resolutions. My question is; why do we even set some new years resolutions? What is the purpose for having new years resolutions?
How I reread my diaries (some 1 on 1 wisdom nugget)
It’s Christmas, first day of Christmas in Suriname. The neighbors are celebrating and it bothers me slightly. I have my music on, and am cleaning up the second room a bit.
A few days ago I was looking for something in my book container. It is impossible to put the books and diaries in unsorted, so they lay on the floor for a few days.
So as I take the time tonight to re-sort the books and diaries, I’m flipping through my old diaries and reading a few pages.
Made myself a tea and eat cake from the night before Christmas party.
When I read, I encounter myself again and relive the moments.
Thoughts that remind me of all the goals I so desperately want to achieve, and also times when I’m at a loss with myself.
As always it happens that I get even more paper (than is already in the container), also my laptop and then I write. I also promised myself to publish a post every Sunday for Perixcope.
Writing & Resorting Diaries on Christmas Night
Translated question: From which little things do you derive happiness?
My Diary is written in Dutch and English – how I think I need to express myself
What is my the challenge? I love attention; men’s attention. The feeling I get from it is- ooh, I feel very much in control and have power, because they want me again, which allows me to decide if I give it to them or not. They get the vibe; -the door is ajar- find your limits. Am still in esteem with them, despite being in a committed relationship.
My third and final question that needs to be answered is about the subject love. In my previous blog I told you about a missed opportunity to be published as a guest writer and that I received some questions from the friend to answer. The second question was a heavy one and I let you in something very personal of my childhood. So, with the third and final question, let’s immediately dive into it!
The third question is ‘What do you want people to know when they are thinking about love, art or intelligence?’
The Social Media Conference Suriname (SMCS) has been successful executed since INEFFABLE N.V. starts it in 2017. To bring national and international speakers together who shed some light into the business of social media. The past five years, this SMCS, evolved from a one day event to a five day event in 2020. During this year, the Social Media Conference Suriname, honored their own name, by going fully digital. It was also the year when Suriname had their first COVID cases.
In my previous blog I told you about a missed opportunity to be published as a guest writer and that I received some questions from the friend to answer. Let’s immediately dive into it! The second question is ‘Can I give advise to my daughter if I would have one?’
This is a closed question. I can answer it with ‘Yes’ and be done with it. But I guess that is not what you want. If that is the answer I have nothing more to add. Let me rephrase that question in: What advise would I give my daughter if I had one?
Due to my own insecurity I missed an opportunity to be published as a guest writer. Around 2019 a friend I know asked me to write a guest post on a few topics concerning the female perspectives. I shared a lot of my personal experiences with men up close on Facebook. My insecurity let me postponed her request many many times. Finally on March, 13th 2020, I wrote the guest post. Till last year I haven’t seen my post on her blog and as of last night her blog is not active ‘This site can’t be reached’. I missed on a good opportunity to be published as a guest writer.
To be honest, I haven’t texted her about her blog, yet. It is also two years that the story was written. I follow her and she is pretty busy with her personal & professional life. And since I am starting to be more consistent I could just write the story on my own blog. I read the story again and I definitely should rewrite it, which I will do. Don’t worry – I will use the written story – but I will put it with more flow and coherence.
