“Do you still remember him?”
“Just one or two moments, yes.”
“What do you most remember about him?”
“When he looked me in the eyes in front of my door, saying, ‘please, Dira. I love her’“
I came back home from work, feeling tired and exhausted.

As a kid, when I had just reached the age of having or going to sleep-overs, there was a constant source of friction between me and my friends: they would want to watch television, and I argued that we could watch television alone, so it was a waste of our time together.

So I moved to Calgary on a whim. I drove down there to pick up a bike with a buddy. I was astonished at the beauty of the city. But I don’t really want to get into that. Because in about 9 months I was down to 500 bucks and 90 passed do on my truck payment…

So I tried to do some serious soul searching in 2017 to get to the very bottom of why I feel so comfortable being single. Why I always feel the need to push people away the minute I realize they are getting close enough to see my vulnerabilities.

Walking outside into the cool crisp air, barely light out, I open my car door, place my things inside and turn around to the most beautiful sight. A bright eyed stunning smiling face, ready to take on her day, after an evening of laughter and again a much bigger atomic bomb shock wave of pleasure…
Exciting, intoxicating and from another planet. Yeah I get that’s a regular interpretation and this is the very reason why I don’t have the ability to just casually date. Everything I do in life I jump in head first without holding anything back. I give my career my all, my study my all and my…

Honestly, I don’t understand on how could someone or anyone enjoying themselves in their own comfort zone for years? Have life become so meaningless for them?

Detox to retox. That is the vicious plight of a millennial these days — we are constantly struggling between our past selves and the outline of who we are meant to become. It’s not phony or fake, it’s just being young and unsure. We know we should be taking care of our bodies (hello…

Instead,
They are the quiet acts, barely seen.

I want to believe that I am still 25.
Accepting limitations is hard. Nobody wants to acknowledge that they are not the person they used to be.
What do you see?Aren’t we all in this together?One planet, one experiment.
Perhaps my heart still aches,
Even ever so slightly;
Whenever I see your name, though it wasn’t you;
Whenever I listen to heartbreak songs, which lyrics are so eerily parallel to us;
I thought that loss would be easier to master,especially when it wasn’t my intent.But it seems I just create disaster.
It’s been five months; no day regains its luster.I wonder where my optimism went.I…

You are not alone in those feelings Selma. I’ve struggled myself with them and I know I have so much more to learn. But it helps me when I remind myself there will always be something to learn. No one knows everything no matter how far ahead of us they are. I’m happy to hear my words brought you encouragement and grace.
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing.
