When you don’t know what to write, just write

I’m not sure how many times this year I’ve had to say this to myself. I also…

A day like today

6 years ago…

Why?

Why my brain works this way? Why do I work this way? Why do I keep doing this to myself?

These are the question that I ask myself regularly. These are the questions asking to myself right now, where after a day of rest and recovery and got me on the opposite of the spectrum again. A day where…
