    Sparkling eyes build the world

    ByIris 31 August 201711 August 2024

    To start this blog, I can happily share with you that this is the first blog of many to come written from my cutely small travelling laptop or tablet attached to a keyboard, whatever you like to call it. I received this gift from my family because I graduated in June and because I am…

    People may be nothing like you expect them to be…

    ByIris 15 August 201711 August 2024

    A hospital, a place where the extremes of life come together: birth, death, untameable happiness, uncontrollable screams filled with pain, relief, fear for the future, determination, tears and hope. People are strong. People cope in the most wonderful, unique way. Stories are difficult. Every day you hear something new. Parents losing their children, people hoping…

    Home alone

    ByIris 4 August 201711 August 2024

    Amazing how much time you have when you are home alone. It is not lonely. Rather it is time to be yourself. I would even say it is good to know how to be alone. It reminds you of who you are, what defines you and what you want from life. Being alone reminds you…

    Rookie miscalculations, life and alienating movies

    ByIris 24 July 201711 August 2024

    A rookie miscalculation wonderfully made me run out of fuel on the highway while trying to pass some cars. Quite scary to be honest. I suppose you are now wondering how this could happen. Well, quite simple actually. I do not have a fuel gauge on my bike, nor do I have a light to…

    The big questions…

    ByIris 10 July 201711 August 2024

    Graduated! Amazing, wonderful, crazy, fantastic! But now is also the time that all those big questions arrive. What are you going to do with your life? Do you have a job? What are your plans for the future? When will you have children? When will you marry? Will you look for a house? Well, to…

    It always looks impossible until it’s done

    ByIris 1 July 201711 August 2024

    Sometimes you feel pretty, sometimes not. Sometimes you feel like you can conquer the world, sometimes you feel the world has conquered you. Sometimes you feel you have reached your goal, and sometimes this is exactly the case. In this case I have certainly reached my goal. Well, not all my goals, but after 5…

    Fragile life

    ByIris 16 June 201711 August 2024

    Today is such a beautiful day. These days are so beautiful. Sun, flowers spreading their perfume and life. Aching, amazing, shimmering life, but then I realise, not for all. It hurts when you really let this sink in. So many people losing their life because of war, because of anger, because of warmth and because…

    If it’s not all right, it is not yet the end

    ByIris 24 May 201711 August 2024

    The sun breaks through and the world seems to wake up from its everlasting sleep. With days growing longer and blue skies overhead people suddenly start coming outside, smiling to each other and enjoying life. When walking along the streets it feels as if the atmosphere has changed, the world feels more vibrant, more alive….

    Time is life

    ByIris 8 May 201711 August 2024

    Time passes by. Sometimes it more likes slips through your fingers. Time not spent working on something useful so easily feels lost, but why? Use time wisely! Yes, I agree. But it can be damn hard to decide what wisely really means. If you enjoyed wasting time, was it then really wasted? Is wisely working…
