Oldies, when I used to paint in Photoshop (circa 2010)

 

Cry for Help for Serbia, people, nature and animals

Update:  I was to optimistic thinking this will never happen, but it just happened. People, we are all dead! This will arrive to the rest of Europe, keep that in mind! It will not stop. It will go into Danube and other rivers, and every water around, it will arrive to your country too. Don't ignore it! Sulphuric acid will be poured into ground in thousands and thousands of tons! It will go into underground waters and rivers, and it will spread. It will reach Danube and Europe, and pollute every single water in Serbia and Europe, making it toxic. That will make all the fields toxic, all the food and all the animals dead! For a little amount of lithium we will all be DEAD! Just because some government wanted some money. You are NEXT!  I believe everyone knows about "Rio Tinto" affair by now. This is blacklisted, notorious company that leaves nothing but misery, destruction and bare land after they do their "work". Serbia is beautiful country with beautiful nature,...

Life could be, should be great

 Most people today are miserable. Even people you see on Instagram and other social networks looking like they own the world, in best hotels, smiling in bed over the fancy meal, looking like beautiful paintings, they are mostly if not all, miserable. It's the set up. It takes hundreds of photos to get a good one, the lovely looking meal is usually not real or not being eaten, hotel room is costly and most photos don't look that good. It's nice to believe in myth there is such ideal life, and to believe, if we are just beautiful enough, slim enough, if we could get enough money and followers, we could be happy too. But would we? Now, the large percent of people don't have Instagram life, real or faked, we live in our tiny apartments, or larger apartments, no difference, we go to work, we sleep and eat, and life is just passing by. Some think, van life, life off the grid is the answer. It might be, or maybe not. Problem is, we are not all the same, there is no the same so...

More places I'd love to visit

Moscow First of all, I would love to visit Russia, at least once in my life (so far, no such luck), but Moscow is on my top list of cities to visit. It looks like you are in fairytale! That architecture is just amazing. And I am a bit of a sucker for Russian candies and cakes. Who knows how many things could amaze me there! Sindey Never ever been to Australia, but I would love to! Apart from my fear of giant spiders and snakes, I would still love to visit great city of Sidney. Now, who wouldn't? It looks so alive and I bet it has great food and great beaches. Sadly, given how things are now, this will not happen soon. Oslo Norway is always mentioned as greatest country to live in. I bet it is. I am not great fan of winter and very short daylights but for a visit to Norway I would get over it. Oslo looks like a city worth visiting for longer time, if I am lucky (very lucky) even staying and living in it. It looks just so friendly, like you can have a really nice life there. Amalfi, ...

Places in the world I would love to visit

 I didn't travel much. There are some reasons why it is like that, I am single mom, not enough money, not enough Vacation days to go really far, flights are expensive, I have cats and one of them has extensive fear of living the apartment, and now there is this virus... mostly those things. But life is short and some recent health scares reminded me of that. I have no idea how much I have left, maybe 20 years, maybe 2, maybe it's months. How much of that is quality life? We have to live in the moment, so why is that so hard? There are many places I would like to visit. If I had time/money/opportunities I would like to see every piece of this world, no exceptions. So what would be interesting on the top of my head? This list is not final, but if I had a bucket list, these would be like first to come in mind: Tokyo of course I would love to visit Tokyo! It looks so different than any city or country I have ever been to. And it has so many interesting things to see, experience, fe...

How we lived before internet and social networks

 There was a time back then, when I was 19, 20, 25... back back in the '90s. It was different times, so much different than now. I can see that because I was there, and I am here now. I am not young anymore for long time and I can't even imagine how it is to be born right into the world of social media, internet, hundreds of channels on cable, Netflix, Hulu, reality shows, everyone's opinion online, everyone's life online, every single opinion out in the open... so much information, so many things, so so much of it right into your brain since you were born. Yes, internet, electronic media and social networks can seem like a great things that make life so much easier, but now, everything about everyone is out in the open. Your life is in the open, and what is worse, your lie is worth nothing. You are just a number, a small human in the sea of 7 billion other humans, and only lives that are "worth" (not really but you know what I mean) is rich, super rich people...

Why media people do this?

 When I sit to think which profession causes people most anxiety, most fear, most aggressiveness, which profession causes most wars, civil fights and rise of depression and other mental disorders in people, I can't but to think about media, journalism and everything else involved into that area. Why journalists do that? Are they even aware of damage they are making or is it all about likes and number of readers and views on page? Is that everything the world is about today, not to make the world better, not to make people more loving, more caring and to bring peace and awareness but to create more abuses, more violence and more anxiety? I made mistake and read few articles with news today and my anxiety went sky high. So much apocalyptic news and predictions, so much oh so inhumane and dangerous, rude and violence provoking statements from people who are making important decisions on our lives. So many comments from readers, riddled with aggressiveness, hate, anger, violence, ignor...

Plastic surgeons and doctors for Aesthetics procedures on youtube

 Recently I get a lot of videos made by plastic surgeons and various physicians in Aesthetics procedures in my youtube recommended. I am not sure how this happened but I watched a string of these videos by various medical doctors just to see what it's about. I have nothing against medical procedures that exist to make you feel better about your looks and make you feel beautiful or look younger. That is actually a great thing. If I had money, of course I would like some of these procedures on me, mostly non invasive ones because I am scared of surgeries. I can also understand these highly educated people live from these procedures and of course they will promote it. But there are differences in ways they do it. Some do it in good ways, giving advice on each procedures, warnings what not to do, recommendations of what is best for you, how to get the best results etc. Some are even fun and create creative videos that are as funny as they are informative. But there are some that kind o...

How Hollywood sees people of different ages

Children, small and a bit bigger up to maybe 15 - creepy (very small children especially up to 5), scary, or quite annoying and bratty, lots of screaming and tantrums, sometimes children of 8 or 9 years annoyingly smart like they are 101. Teenagers and young adults up to maybe 28 - stupid, overly too sexual, targets to maniacs and killers, in almost every single horror, or annoying and clingy, sometimes heroes and last girls standing. Adults from 28 to circa 35 - engaged in thrillers, dramas, marriage stories, serious topics, usually with lots of sex scenes. Adults from 35 to 55 - moms and dads, serious, side characters, boring, sometimes play cops or detectives or doctors but almost never as main characters. Older adults - over 65 or 70 - cute and silly in comedies, sometimes dirty and evil, or overly creepy, scary, trying to kidnap you and steal your youth.

I am very tired

First thing to state, which is a fact, a fact most people forget until it's too late. Here we go: Life is short. Second fact: You live ONCE, only once, you are young once, you are 25 (for example), or 35 or 55 once, and then you are older. Even if you believe in reincarnation, even if you are religious, the fact is, your life in this body you have now, will be just once. You have no idea if you will be born second time and in which circumstances and if there is heaven or hell and where will you end up. Or if there is only emptiness after life. Whatever it is, this body, this life you now have, will be no more. Just remember this next time you get mad about something someone said about you, or when you are upset about something at work, or when you accidentally "embarrass" yourself like for example fart in public, or whenever you are sad or upset about the current state of the world or something you can not change. Or when you are sad and worried and miserable over somethi...

Expectations of life

 Are great or less great expectations of life harmful for us? They might be. Everyone has goals,  expectations, plans and wants that to work. But, what happens if that doesn't happen for us? Because, no matter how hard we work, no matter how hard we try, push, life is not predictable, more often than not, it doesn't go our way and it's not "working" as we want it. More often than not things don't turn out as we want them. Note:  Of course, I am not super smart person, or life coach or educated as psychologist or whatever, so all this is just my opinion based on my experience. What are some common expectations? Sometimes, we work a lot to get a job of our dreams, or be famous. And we work really a lot, looking at people who got famous, who got that dream job, but with far less work, far less competence and less talent than we have. So why wouldn't it work for us? Because, sometimes it doesn't. There is no explanation, everything that happens is a comple...
