Life transcends our human existence, emphasizing the significance of being present in the 'Here and Now.' In my world, life's challenges resemble a surrealist painting. This blog space serves as our shared artistic canvas, confronting existential depths and navigating human experiences to foster understanding and connection, even in the midst of navigating through agonizing pain.

Words for a Tombstone
How do You Summarise Words for a tombstone?
How do you summarise a life?
How do you minimise words into something meaningful and everlasting?
How do you deal with the final encrypted words - never be to erased again
How do you know the words written, encrypted and never to be erased again are sufficient?
How do you summarise a life?
How do you even start this process?
Do I even want to start this process?
By starting to scribble something, it symbolises yet another goodbye
How does one even choose if a tombstone is the right one?
Do I even want to choose, or would it be easier for someone else to do it?
How does one process the final sealing of the grave? That in itself means, yet another goodbye and a further distance, a concealment and containment of our love
Would I even want to be an active participant in this process, for I feel that even though this is yet another goodbye. For there are still more processes to come, of saying more goodbyes.
Would I ever be ready to re-visit your grave site after the first time?
Would I even want to? For I feel even though I saw you laid there in multi-layers of soil, that place does not symbolise you
I feel you and see you, therefore you are everywhere.
