Who Am I

 These thoughts turned out to be rather difficult but solvable for me (it says the mathematician in me). I was probably not very lucky, but I started asking myself this question after I graduated college. Having finished it, I seemed lost in life. I didn’t know what I want and what is really interesting to me. I liked my occupation, but it is too limited in its capabilities. I even started to regret that I refused to go on to study and continue research (although it was very interesting to me). Losing opportunities, we don’t always believe that we can find others. I tried myself in different ways, but everything was not interesting and trivial to me. Everything is predictable, words, actions, behavior. I was as if under water and could not inhale full lungs. If I say poetically, then “spread my wings and fly towards my beautiful future.” It’s hard for us to imagine the future if we don’t know about what to dream. I met my soul mate, which was filled with many storie

How I Started Developing Myself (Good Things Happen)

We often ask ourselves questions, we often find answers to them, but we are not always able to correctly notice and recognize them. Since childhood, I loved to go for a walk, sit in a park, or just be away from the city and enjoy the starry sky. The stars were always sacred to me, and the surrounding sky, I compared with the ocean. Maybe that's why I started learning astronomy, to be closer to the stars and the sky. But as it turned out, dreams remain just dreams. People still cannot go to the stars and new planets as we walk to our favorite shopping mall or cafe. All these thoughts didn't let me sleep and eat. They are like big bees constantly flying around my head. When I returned from a walk on one clear night, I was determined to write about my experiences and the torments of my soul. A few hours later, my short story was written, I was happy and tired, so I went to bed. When I woke up, I read my work, and it changed my whole life. The realization of who y

Who are you?

Recently, I try to understand who I am? But I cannot find the definitive answer. A lot of things (but not all) interest me, and I'm personally passionate about. I know what I do with a great pleasure for a long time in my life. But I still cannot find the correct definition or words for that. My brain is stubbornly unwilling and unable to solve my equation. In my life, I was a student at school, a student at a university, did research work for a year and a half, worked as an engineer, achieved improvement of qualifications and certification for a company's product, worked in Internet resources, launched new brands to the market and then left it all. And then I was trying to find myself. It seems that I have found; I know what I love to do. But I still cannot say exactly who I am. Who am I and who are you? Without knowing who you are, you risk becoming faceless and doomed to be unhappy. xx Maya

Meerkats are waiting for the end. RoH

All my friends have always told me it’s hard to start doing something new. It’s hard to create something new on a white sheet of paper. I let my thoughts fill it and the pen starts writing letters on it. It’s difficult to write a word by word, so my friends told me. So I thought before. But the more I wrote something, the easier it became to overcome the abyss of doubt. I decided to keep these words to myself as a reminder. I need to move forward towards my goal. I almost write my book “Realm of Hope". I finish the final chapters of the manuscript and enjoy the hard work done. It’s difficult for me to imagine that moment when I stop looking at my laptop’s screen, look at the picture on the wall and write ‘the end’. But it was always in my life, I love to live and think like my characters. I like to think through every detail of their story line or every personality trait. And every time, no matter how many books I write, I can’t imagine a moment when I need to write two

What does being a writer mean?

Anyone can write and be a writer. Everyone has their own opinion about it. But to me, as a person who wrote his first poem and short story at 6 this word means something completely different. For me to be a writer, it means developing my imagination. Learning to see not the forest but every detail, every tree separately. Create your own universe of the smallest details and make it live by its own rules. This is the only way to create a new character or write a new book. The most difficult thing for this profession is to find yourself and be honest with yourself that you’re one of the creative personalities. Then certain things will become familiar to you. Instead of drinking coffee in the morning or being on social networks, you sit behind your notebook with ideas and write and write your new thoughts. It will be normal for you to think of a new character as your friend or enemy. And it’s absolutely customary to put your thoughts on paper faster than telling your friends.
