Do you choose Love or Destruction?
I am done. Not out of love nor forgiveness. Just because I am sick of filling my head with other peoples crap. Stubbornness. Maybe that’s the way I have to take it. In the end, that is, what brought me so far in life. Stubbornness for everyone who told me it wouldn’t work, everyone that…

Violent storms and kind strangers.
The sixth day of bikepacking in France by myself. The chirping of the first birds on the morning wakes me up. Through the windows of the barn that was my shelter for the night I see the sky, still dark, a few clouds. As more and more birds enter the morning symphony, I pack up…

5 minutes a day are 30 hours a year.
“If only a week had 10 days” and “If I could add a few more hours into the day” Who isn’t guilty of thinking or saying something in those lines out loud at least a few times in their life? Doing more. We always feel like we have to do more of everything. More work,…

Focus and Freedom : How do you create your life?
Where do you set your priorities? How do you create your life? Focus on less and focus on it better. Not in these words, but with the same meaning, is one thing Marcus Aurelius mentions in his meditations. He has a point, of course he does, one that resonates with me. And maybe with you…
