This post is part of an ongoing series, or writing experiment. I’ve challenged myself to post at least five hundred words a day on here, indefinitely. Some days I write the post that same day, some days I use something pre-written. I started with the idea of each day’s topic continuing from the previous day, … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 123: The Joy of Reading and Art

500 WORDS, DAY 118: Melancholy/Nostalgia
Joy and sadness all come over me and converge into a constant feeling of melancholy, a faint satisfaction which is strange to try to describe, as I think of what I’ve sacrificed and what I’ve gained, both consciously and unconsciously, throughout the fleeting years of my life up until now. That melancholy has become so … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 118: Melancholy/Nostalgia
500 WORDS, DAY 117: All Uniquely Similar
I’m not a guru of any kind. In fact, I’d consider myself somewhat of an idiot in a lot of ways. Don’t get me wrong, I do have confidence in myself and I’m quite proud of some of my achievements and some aspects of my personality. I feel like I’m very observant, and I notice … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 117: All Uniquely Similar
500 WORDS, DAY 111: Learn to Love It
Time moves forward regardless of our opinions. The days are shorter and the past is fading. Every day farther away. Everyone claims to know the truth, yet we all are truly blinded, if not by one thing, then definitely by another. Illusions. Mind games. Division. Reality is too real to ignore. It isn’t healthy to … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 111: Learn to Love It
500 WORDS, DAY 100: I Appreciate You Reading!
Today is my hundredth day in a row of writing and posting at least five hundred words on this blog. It’s cool to see that my thoughts resonate with some people, even if it’s just a few people here and there. One of the coolest things about reading something like philosophy, or other people’s ideas … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 100: I Appreciate You Reading!
500 WORDS, DAY 96: Stream of Consciousness (Pt. 2)
Apathy. Sometimes I can’t be bothered to think too much. Thinking is good. Thinking and thinking is interesting. Thinking and thinking and thinking is fascinating, but just when do we cross the line into overthinking? Overthinking is exhausting. It’s relative though. What’s overthinking to me might not be for you. Who knows. We all have … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 96: Stream of Consciousness (Pt. 2)
500 WORDS, DAY 86: Today: A Moment in Time.
Here I am once again. Drinking a cup of iced coffee while writing for today’s post. Listening to Hiroshi Yoshimur’s ‘Green’ album. I’ve been listening to a whole bunch of ambient music I never knew existed during the past few years, and it’s really become one of my favorite musical genres. There are so many … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 86: Today: A Moment in Time.
500 WORDS, DAY 77: Motivation & Inspiration Meet
Day 77 of this writing experiment and I still struggle with a lot of the same obstacles I faced when I first started this. I’ve written a lot about the waves that hit me oh so often that I barely find time to truly dive into one thing before the next fascination comes along. I … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 77: Motivation & Inspiration Meet
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 34: Time: Ultimate Reality or Ultimate Illusion?
Yesterday I posted about my newest musical release ‘born to run’, an energetic, electronic EP produced on the Elektron Digitakt. If you haven’t heard it and are interested in doing so, you can check out yesterday’s post (DAY 33). I would really appreciate you taking the time to listen to it. Today we are continuing … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 34: Time: Ultimate Reality or Ultimate Illusion?
