Something which has fascinated me for quite some time is this shared feeling many of us have, a feeling of internal friction. A part of us is pulled towards wanting to feel unique and feel like an individual, while the other pushes us to want to fit in and conform.

‘Tis The Season To Be (Un)Motivated
Has everybody’s motivation to do something productive been pretty much thrown overboard, and chained to a concrete block the size of a small car destined to sink to the bottom of the Mariana Trench never to see the light of day again? Or is that just me? As a human being I like to takeContinue reading “‘Tis The Season To Be (Un)Motivated”
I’m Motivated At Being Unmotivated
I’ve become really unmotivated lately. I find sticking to schedules more painful than the thought of chewing shards of bottlegreen glass as if they were cornershop penny chews. Working remotely at my 9 to 5 is doable, but it’s the goals I have outside of this (as we all have) which I feel completelyContinue reading “I’m Motivated At Being Unmotivated”
Too Narrow-visioned

It seems the past always repeats me, A path of unraveling seams. Whispered regrets always greet me. My childhood career wasContinue reading “Poem: A Job Is A Job”

Poem – Money
Money, It slips through my fingers, Like slithers of bottle-green seaweed submitting to gravity. I chase it every day, But yet I still feel drowned at its mercy. I am submerged. Will anyone take mercy? Celebrities live a life of luxury, Yet still, some show signs of misery. If more money is allContinue reading “Poem – Money”
