As negative as they seem?

March 15, 2019January 10, 2019 ~ josemsantiago ~ 1 Comment

Regrets, sorrow and anger. Three emotions we all feel at some point. Inherently thought to be negative and part of an unnecessary but inevitable feeling of guilt. We are taught to neglect these ¨negative¨ emotions and move forward while placing them in oblivion. However, I challenge you to do something technically different. I challenge you … Continue reading As negative as they seem?

His facade

March 1, 2019April 9, 2019 ~ josemsantiago ~ Leave a comment

Slipping through the small cracks of the closed windows, a golden ray finds his way to the slumbering face of this young man. This gentle warm touch wakes him up and, reminds him of the beginning of a new day. A new day, to give it his all. The young man tries to brush off … Continue reading His facade

As a whole

February 15, 2019January 10, 2019 ~ josemsantiago ~ Leave a comment

Constantly regarded as one but, never as a whole. Constantly remembered, compared or judged as just a piece of our persona. The complete sense of ourselves lost in a perspective imposed by others. Bound, to be just one piece of myself and never to be recognized as my all. We are born as this, we … Continue reading As a whole

My eternal mistake

February 1, 2019January 10, 2019 ~ josemsantiago ~ Leave a comment

Young and destroyed; I have experienced the grace of heaven, the struggle of being on earth and the agonizing flames of hell. Letting go of what was important I engulfed myself in selfish desire. I decided to throw it all away just to have a taste of their sinful pleasures. A moment so short I … Continue reading My eternal mistake

Out of the mind

January 8, 2019December 29, 2018 ~ josemsantiago ~ Leave a comment

Gone once again. “Lost in my own world” as they say. Looking into the nothingness of my sight. Having complete control of my view but not of that moment. Just looking at it, lost in thought but, not really paying it any attention. The feeling of just being there entertained in your consciousness for a … Continue reading Out of the mind

That one friend

January 1, 2019December 28, 2018 ~ josemsantiago ~ Leave a comment

The one who sees through my everyday façade, pushes me forward and gives me the courage to continue. That one special person I can count on no matter what, always looks out for me. The only one that truly knows my soul and can build me back together after crashing down. The one who can … Continue reading That one friend

Obliterating our possibility

December 26, 2018December 30, 2018 ~ josemsantiago

Scared, terrified even, of moving towards what we feel it’s right. Frozen in the fortress of our mind being the witness to the constant clashing between our desire and our conscious inhibition. We stop in the time of our thoughts, paralyzed, giving up to our everlasting fear without trying on our most precious and concealed … Continue reading Obliterating our possibility

Ownership deception

December 25, 2018December 30, 2018 ~ josemsantiago

Haven´t we all been in the predicament ¨ I have nothing to wear¨, ¨ I need new clothes¨, “ l just don´t have the right thing¨ while being well aware deep down that we actually have more than enough.  Yet we fool ourselves to believe that we need to own something different to be complete … Continue reading Ownership deception

No longer with us

December 20, 2018December 30, 2018 ~ josemsantiago

I’m a morning person.  I love mornings and usually I’m very energetic.  I arrive to work and make sure to greet everybody and wish them a great day ahead.  Today however, I was met with silence almost as soon as I came in.  For you to have some background, we at the company work in … Continue reading No longer with us

My Co-worker’s muted voice

December 18, 2018June 27, 2020 ~ josemsantiago

I had a co-worker that one day said to me “Anxiety has destroyed my life” while we were joking about who knows what but, I’m sure it was a completely unrelated topic.  At the moment nobody in the conversation gave it any mind but, it stayed with me. Resonating deep within my consciousness. That sentence. In my … Continue reading My Co-worker’s muted voice
