Everything is tense
The soul, the body, and the mind
Will I pass the test?
Remarks by the author:
Many of my friends and also myself often feel a lot of pressure and anxiety. It can be a good thing in order to focus, but when it is too much it rather leads to procrastination and unhealthy habits.
Whispers of the wind,
Nature’s symphony of sounds,
Echoing its truth.
Remarks by the author:
Sometimes when I walk in nature, I try to listen to her (yes, she is definitely a woman!), I like to imagine that the sounds that we hear are actually stories and wisdom of nature, maybe sometimes also expressions of the souls who have lived before us.
Silent river flows,
Time’s embrace heals all unseen,
Hope blooms in soft dawn.
Remarks by the author:
It has touched me a lot to think about healing, and to see it not only referring to myself, but also to the people around me, and even nature. They say time heals everything, and I think it is true. We need patience, and we need to be humble and grateful.
Fragments of a tale,
Lost in the translation breeze,
Misunderstood hearts.
Remarks by the author:
While I enjoy living here in Austria, I often feel misunderstood. The language is a big obstacle, but also our values and how we behave is very different.
Steel and glass shadows,
City pulse, relentless grind,
Humanity strains.
Remarks by the author:
I come from the countryside. To live in a big city now feels violent to me, I think we created an environment that is brutal.
