How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?
My travels, art, and mindfulness events shape how I see life. For me, each moment becomes a chance for growth and connection
With time, I’ve learned to set boundaries, practice self-compassion, and find balance. Every experience, whether joyful or challenging, deepens my understanding, making me more present, resilient, and appreciative of the journey …
Over the years, I’ve learned that there’s no such thing as failure, only learning and growth. Every experience, whether it goes as planned or not, teaches us something valuable. Challenges shape us, mistakes refine us, and every setback is a step toward wisdom
Life is beautiful

I agree that the things we experience, both good and bad, help to shape us and influence our creativity. Joy and happiness can be expressed in bright and colorful works, while the trauma and sadness can be seen in our darker pieces. But in the end, it’s all ‘us’, who we are, and who we strive to be.
Lovely photo, Roksana. You look so happy at peaceful. 🙂

Beautifully said! Every experience, whether joyful or painful, becomes a part of our creative expression and personal growth. In our case, it’s amazing how art allows us to capture all those emotions
And thank you so much for the appreciation!
In that moment, I almost felt like Mother Mary and experienced a deep sense of peace within myself
Have a wonderful life, Richard!

You’re such a wholesome person that I’m amazed at these positive perspectives of yours. Unfortunately, I’ve had trauma and disappointments in life and my outlook seems to get bleaker all the time. I still find beauty in nature but very rarely do i find it in people which is why I’m a recluse and why i stay hidden.– Travel did make me aware of all the wonderous cultures who survive in means and methods unlike ours here. Sometimes I wish i could escape to some of those areas where life seems more peaceful. It’s a rat race here and my travels here are more stress than pleasure. I dont care for art or yoga or all those things that help relax the mind. Maybe i should try more meditation….once upon a time i found comfort in fantasy and visual escapes but those illusions are gone. I already mentioned disappointments, didnt i….sorry so sour and wish i could be pollyanna like you, my dear. but thank you for writing and assuring us that you are well and happy. That is appreciably good to learn. Carry on and keep that bounce in your step. 🙂

Stefie, I m so grateful for your presence on my posts! You’re very kind
And your words carry so much depth, and I truly appreciate you sharing them. Life’s weight can be immense, and I completely understand why you feel the way you do. Disappointments and trauma can reshape how we see the world, and it makes sense that trust in people might not come easily. Yet, the fact that you still find beauty in nature and wonder in different cultures says so much about the resilience in you
There’s no right or wrong way to seek comfort, whether it’s through travel, solitude, or even just moments of stillness. Meditation might help, but so might simply allowing yourself the grace to feel as you do without judgment. You don’t have to be Pollyanna to be valid in your experience. I just hope, in whatever way feels right for you, you find pockets of peace. And for what it’s worth, I see and respect where you are, without expectation for where you “should” be
Have a great life, dear Stefie!
