500 WORDS, DAY 83: Spontaneous Writing. Life Keeps Going.

I’m a person. I’m a human being. I love life. Life is hard. Hard things are often worth doing. Life is a challenge, but it’s a blessing to get to live it.

500 WORDS, DAY 82: Blessings in Disguise: Take Nothing for Granted

I’ve always been fairly healthy throughout most of my life. Although overall that’s still the case, and I’m extremely grateful for that, this year has been slightly different than every other year I’ve lived through so far. Towards the end of 2023 I started getting all kinds of symptoms of what I eventually realized was … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 82: Blessings in Disguise: Take Nothing for Granted →

500 WORDS, DAY 73: We’re Not Always Aware of Our Impact

It's crazy that many of us never fully realize just how much of an impact our very existence has on the people around us, and just how much we might matter to certain people. We might not really feel too connected to anyone in our lives, so we could feel like we don't really matter … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 73: We’re Not Always Aware of Our Impact →

500 WORDS, DAY 57: Fascination with Life and its Mysteries

Everything seems corny and stupid to write about sometimes. Every idea seems ridiculous and simply not worth mentioning. I don’t know why it happens, since other days I write the exact same kinds of random things and I feel like it’s all good, like it just works. Today it just feels weird though, like, why … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 57: Fascination with Life and its Mysteries →

500 WORDS, DAY 43: Ongoing Weed Addiction

Yesterday I wrote about my ongoing addiction to weed, and the different ways I’ve tried to manage it throughout the years.

500 WORDS, DAY 41: A Series of Unique Encounters and Experiences

Life is a series of unique encounters and experiences, and it’s up to us to learn as much as we can from as many of them as we can. I would even say it’s our responsibility, but not because it’s expected of us, or because its’ the right thing to do, or because of anything … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 41: A Series of Unique Encounters and Experiences →

500 WORDS, DAY 40: Time Can’t Be Easily Defined

Yesterday I wrote about time. It’s been a recurring topic all throughout this newest writing experiment of mine, of which today marks the fortieth consecutive day. Time has also been a recurring concern of mine for as long as I can remember. Time; this invisible yet inescapable, incredibly mysterious concept that seems to be totally … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 40: Time Can’t Be Easily Defined →

500 WORDS, DAY 39: Hidden In Plain Sight

I’ve been writing about time and about life and death in general, as well as what I think are some of the most important ideas associated with these topics, mainly topics that come up whenever we as humans contemplate life and death.

500 WORDS, DAY 38: Taking Responsibility for Our Time

Today is the 38th day of me posting at least 500 words on here. When I first introduced this experiment, I mentioned that my intention was to write as much as I could ahead of time so I wouldn’t necessarily have to write 500 words a day, just as long as I posted 500 words … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 38: Taking Responsibility for Our Time →
