CALLING THE SHOTS

  Hi, I’m Sam, Each decision we make, no matter how serious or irrelevant we may think it is ultimately impacts the course of our lives. I like to think that we're our choices irrespective of the reason behind the decisions. Sometimes we make certain choices without thinking and that is a result of a history of making similar choices. The direction of our lives is altered or improved by our choices in various areas of our lives, so have it at the back of your mind that every decision matters big time.   Mornings are usually vibrant, with so many different choices, no matter how insignificant or major they may be. There's always a fresh feeling attached to mornings, like an opportunity to make things fresh and new. So many choices are attached to mornings, whether to have a slow or rushed morning, and each decision is like planting a seed for how the day will go. Some people have decided not to ever joke with their morning decisions.   I think it's both liberatin...

NOSTALGIA IS MY FAVORITE PLACE TO BE

  Hi, I’m Sam,   Where memories blend into soft edges, and time slows down just long enough for me to marinate myself in the moments that once meant so much to me and ultimately framed me. It’s a period where the past becomes more vivid than the present, and I can give a lot to spend as much time as possible there, in a place that seems to feel very familiar and so peaceful. In this place, everything feels just right as if nothing truly fades, and I find comfort in the echoes of what once was.   My favorite thing to do is sitting alone, listening to music playing in my ear, the bass almost vibrating my brain, and then taking myself back to past moments. My trip down memory lane can be just memories or a blend of memories and daydreaming to make it even more interesting.   Another favorite thing I love to do is scrolling through my gallery to relive moments. There is a very indescribable feeling you get when you start scrolling from the present to day...

SMALL ACTS, BIG PRIDE

  Hi, I’m Sam,   It's intriguing living life in retrospect and it’s also an eye-opener for me. It is very easy for me to gloss over moments as they happen and it happens to someone like me who tries as much as possible to live in the moment. I love sitting alone, listening to music playing in my ear, the bass almost vibrating my brain, and then taking myself back to past moments I may have overlooked. And the weird thing is that the moments I go back to almost always have nothing to do with what is happening around me in the present.     Sometimes I try to think back to little prideful moments around me and I ask myself what little things am I proud of. I always end up listing things as little as being about to finish 2 or more chapters of a book despite having a chaotic day that the old me would rather use as an excuse not to read, or stay hydrated, I even had to buy myself a big water bottle to help me always achieve my goal of staying hydrated or keeping m...

THE FIRST

  Hi, I’m Sam   I am not the first, do I even want to be the first? I don't think I have given the idea of being the first an actual thought, it is always an in-passing thing for me. It feels good to be the first but I don't think being the first is what motivates me to keep doing anything. Should it even be enough motivation to do anything? That should be the correct question. I believe it can be one of the reasons to keep at something but if it’s the only or major reason, the motivation cannot be sustained.    I am the last baby in the house, so I am very much used to learning from people ahead of me. I still make my own mistakes but I try as much as possible not to repeat any mistake someone close and older than me made, that would be dumb actually. I have always thought that being surrounded by older people would shield me from making mistakes, but that would have been likely if there was always one wrong way to do something or one right way to do things....
