300 post! (now 301) - Mantra

Waauw, Just just realized I wrote my 300 post! 300 little posts in a little over 2 years mostly about nothing really. More of a online little diary as I sometimes look back a month, a year or 2 years to see what I did then. Because in  intention of starting a blog I really haven't come up with a solid theme to write about. I can't find my passion.

That's my problem a bit. I am restless like that. My mind as well. I did start my own mantra to help my mind relax at night or at times of stress. Been doing it for a couple of weeks now and I feel like it helps. While repeating my mantra it helps me relax a little. My mantra goes like 'rest, relaxation, I am powerful'. Just last week I repeated it while driving from one work location to the other and I felt my muscles relax. it helped my mind to settle a bit. It just goes on and on and on. Especially in bed it tires me, but not in the good sleepy way. Keeping it occupied with the mantra helps. Even though I have to consciously keep repeating it or my mind will start to wander again.

Ciao!

One week anniversary

The life span of my blog is little over a week now. On the contrary to the statements in my very first post, I did manage to put up 8 short stories. This comes down to an average of 1 story per day. I really like making these blog posts and I really enjoy writing them. It provides an outlet for things and topics I normally would not say out loud, but it helps to write them down. At moments I'm over-floaded with inspiration, but at other times I have no clue what to write about. Maybe it's because I'd like to update by blog on a regular basis, but I'm lacking one clear theme. Currently my short stories range from my desire to start eating in a more heath manner, to movie wisdoms, and from poems to my very first pair of Birkenstocks. 

During this first week it surprised me to also have had visitors form other countries. I could welcome readers from Germany, Belgium and the United States. Chances are you guys just stumbled upon my blog accidentily. But I'm going to take a try, and write my blog posts in English upcomming week. Since this blog started out of curiosity, I'm curious to find out what a change in language will do.

Ciao!
