Postcard Collaboration: Postcard # 1 (Greece)

Image
Ideas come and go. Sometimes we think about them in a moment, for a second, and then forget about it or we think about it, deeply think about it, think about it more, and then try to allow its existence to the world. For countless times, I had made some of my ideas into the real world (discreetly, academics/work and other important things aside, like making small bookmarks with words of encouragement on them and insert them into random books at my university library. There are other things, too; you'd probably know them if you try to read everything in this blog which will cost you time so you don't want to do that!) One of them would be this collaboration with photographers all over the world.   ABOUT THE COLLABORATION: Back in 2012, I wanted to write a poem for each kind of poetry there is out there.

I just finished my casual employment as a junior system administrator. It was fun but I have other choices and decisions to make. So, here I am again. Back to basics. Today, I spent my mornings and afternoons sleeping. I slept in my bed and then on the sofa (while my sister was baking cupcakes!). I ate a lot. I get annoyed easily as well but that's probably because my mind is not ready to think about other things yet. It just wants to focus on what's going to happen next week. I've read that when a person sleeps a lot, that person must be dealing with depression. And somehow that's how I see myself as for today but I don't see it as a weakness....
