The truth is, I have no idea what "me" is. Do you?
If you're likely to even ask this type of questions, and if you think you have the answer, you might have probably given yourself some sort of label: "I am Serbian.", "I am an accountant .", "I am a homosexual with passion for straight men", "I am a Lopez", "I am Aquarius with the ascendant in Aries", "I am (his) girlfriend", "I am a punk rocker, I am nothing you want me to be!", etc. People need to know who they are.
You might have gone one step further in contemplation of self and said: "I am a universe experiencing itself through my existence.", "I am all."... which... you probably are...
But, how does "a universe" wake up in the morning and go to work? How does "a universe" get hurt by a friend it confided in? How does "a universe" get its whole world around a new person it brought to earth as its child, to feed him, feel him, know him? How does "a universe" get fatally sexually attracted to a person it has looked in the eyes only once?
The truth is, we are all of that.
We are both "geniuses" and "saints" with the power we have within our minds, as we are physiologically animals. Mammals.
And most of the time, actually, we are something in between.
And there goes a person I wake up every morning to be, wandering around this world wondering (or wondering around this world wandering).
Trying to understand us humans.
Our labels. Our acts. Our grouping.
Trying to find the balance between learning and concluding.
Being compassionate, but trying to keep true to herself.
Balancing between being safe and trying everything.
Balancing between genuine value of things and values my labels brought to me, genuine value of things and the value constantly commercialized to me by the media I am a daily consumer of.
Trying to understand what "me" is better and what all of this is about and what for (I mean, life).
And therefore the blog.
I walk through life experiencing lots of stuff: I meet people, travel places, watch movies, read, listen to music, consume art and it all is a part of my life and about all of it I am having this thoughts and polemics in my head.
I write them down to my diary (for about 15 years now I've been keeping one).
Finally I decided to share parts of it with you, World.
It was about a year ago that I started traveling, and somehow the travel blog was expected.
And the truth is, I am actually making one.
About my own journey.
I'd be happy to have you on board!
