With today’s article I would like to raise awareness and make people reflect on the beauty of life, but also on its genuine simplicity, in trying to discover and appreciate that unique and special value that we often tend to forget in the fog of our thoughts.

I often find myself thinking about how absurd this journey we are all on — life.

It has this fascinating power to be able to surprise and kill us at the same time, the power to make us extremely happy or drastically sad, angry and disappointed or happy and carefree.

And while many people may find this extremely frustrating and unfair, I see so much magic behind it all.

Indeed, I find it wonderful how everything is a continuous up and down — a lift without buttons, in which we cannot decide where to go, yet we can decide how to approach all this unpredictability.

This constant going up and down can often be mind-numbing and rather stupefying to our minds and yet, underneath it all lies a special magic.
