It's not us anymore


It's not us anymore


He turned his head and it hurts you, he looked back and it hurt you again. And this because he’s not looking after you, but after somebody else. He's distant and doesn't listen, he's pulling his hands back when you try to touch him and you feel in pain. I wonder when we became invisible, lost ourselves, like we are trying to breath and we don’t have enough air? He took it all!


And they walked together in the sunset…



What a cliché and how difficult it is to build that perfect relationship!

We dream, we make wishes, we search greedily for advice in magazines and all over the internet. But when it comes to actually doing something, that’s when reality knocks you out. A lot of effort, plans, fears of being rejected, fear of suffering or to seem ridiculous… All these together lead to a wasted life in the kitchen or in front of the TV watching a cheesy soap opera, dreaming of prince charming, which will come to rescue us from our domestic prisons.

We look around and see women, some not so handsome, some not so bright, but all radiating the glow that only a fulfilled life and a successful marriage can give you. Each and every one of them managed to find their perfect one. That’s the moment when we start wondering – What do they have that we don’t? What is it that we lack? Could it just be luck or destiny? Or maybe the repressed flawless pattern of our imaginary better half plays against us? What if it’s all a matter of too high expectations that would scare off even the mightiest and the fittest of our possible suitors? In most cases the problem lies within us. The surrounding environment has rarely devastating influence on the outcome of our lives. The opportunities are equal to all of us. We are the ones who decide whether to pluck up the courage and use what we are given, or to just sit back and watch  life passing us by, fantasizing again and again about the same impossible, perfect story we’ve been told when little.

The time of fairytales is long gone. We need to wake up, swim to the surface and take a breath of fresh air. Our fantasies only pull us every day further from our own picture of the two lovers, walking hand in hand towards the sunset…

It seems to me that the higher the stakes we’ve set, the greater the fall will be. Why do we knowingly sabotage the only chance we have at achieving the balance we long for?
