conceptual paths

So, it’s been a week, since Pekarna has a new volunteer – me, Ieva.


Last thing I remember from Latvia, was a crazy morning – my friends were playing a song, specially written for me, and the the main verse said – „ Tonight we're drinking heavily cuz we're loosing what we've got... even though we know that you’ll come back and we will never be betrayed, the sence of uncomfortable silence in the air - we want your flight to be delayed. Forever.”

For that moment I thought quite exactly the same.


And you probably know how can power of thoughts work.


So I was almost too late for the plain.

Before I stepped into the plain, I received a last call –„ don’ t go „ , and then the battery of my phone went off, and was never recharged again.


But you know, there’s another power working in the path of life –

every time you make up your mind on one cause, there comes another things to change it other way around.


And that’s what happened throughout whole last week.

I love the people, I love the place, I’m full of energy and willing to do something to help and improve how everything’s working here, and I’m here for good.

At least for this year.


Thanks to all who made me feel like home here!

Psycho health

In this society, only stupid people can stay sane.
Because it's designed for them.
For people without brain.

All others are doomed to psychological disfunctions, complexes.
I think there's even a research proving that more intelligent you are, more probable you will have some sort of psychological diagnosis, in your (adult) life.

Does it make sense?
Of course. Just think about it.

Or no. Don't. Rather stay normal and healthy.
Live your own thruth.
