be gentle, rest often

WELL HELLO ! :)

Hi there!!

It’s been a minute. Coming back on here even for a second is surprisingly comforting. I miss sharing outlets like this one- they feel so much less bombarding and much more intentional.

But I’m not just here to share my inner turmoils- actually, I’m in need of your help.

This last Oct I (mostly) made my very first short film. Written, directed, and starring myself. I funded 70% of it and am now doing funding for the final shooting and the post production. If you are interested in watching the Funding video or the Trailer please click away!

And if you feel inspired to donate- it would truly mean the world to me.

Here is the link-

Even $5 and $10 donations make a difference, and if you can’t swing that just sharing my posts means a lot.

Thank you Thank you Thank you

Alina

If you expect honesty, be honest. If you expect forgiveness, forgive. If you expect a whole person, you have to be a whole person.

Contrary to popular belief, beauty is the light inside of us that shines out when we smile, laugh, talk passionately or deeply. It comes out when we’re vulnerable. Everyone I see is beautiful to me lately. What media and confused individuals have told me about beauty, is wrong. We fall in love with people because we see their souls, very sweetly opened up. We peer into them and with unyielding gratitude say “you are for me.”

Creating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it’s to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential — as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth. You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them. To invent your own life’s meaning is not easy, but it’s still allowed, and I think you’ll be happier for the trouble.
