A chocolate bar after a workout is never a good idea and against all gym protocols - but I am done arguing with my body, whatever it desires, it shall have!

Happy birthday Mom. I know you will never read this, but you are the only constant in my life, from even before I was born. Your daily hugs, kisses and prayers, even at this age, still give the warmest feeling I can possibly experience. Only unconditional love I will ever receive in this lifetime!

If not told -don`t ask; If invited late -decline; If not invited -don`t go; If left out of plans -move on; Always initiating -step back; Feeling used -set boundaries; If taken for granted -value yourself; Constantly explaining -stop justifying; Feeling unappreciated -distance yourself. #LifeHacks

One that requires little, doesn't mean that the same would settle for the minimum. A person can well be a minimalists in needs, yet a maximalist in high standars. #LateNightThinking #SelfWorth

Rockin my earbuds, Rockin my car and then my tv and office - a song I just can't stop playing. A tune that will live long, just like his few legendary songs. youtu.be/nLL7Mfz9SxQ?...

Time never heals what you fail to make.

The beauty of being an early-riser is that I get the streets to myself, the gym to myself, the coffe-shop to myself, like the whole town all to myself. If I only had all I ever wanted, all to myself! #whatIf

People of patience, have beautiful endings!

Walking around Prishtina with my cousin while having Aba burgers followed by Rinia ice-cream take me back in my student years. Never thought this city was able to make me nostalgic and yet tonight it did. #Retro

Some two decades later, I rewatched 'Bridges of Medison County', from a whole different perspective now. What a story, what a piece of art. 4 days that would change the life of 2 mature people forever. A meeting so unexpected, resulting in a love so profound. Life coule be so sweet and yet brutal.

What you hide in your heart, appears in your eyes! - Rumi

Armend Rexhepagiqi`s new album send shivers down the spine. One song better than the other: all ode to love and everything that comes with it. Amazing material to listen over the summer and longer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDbM...

Streets of Prishtina!

That feeling when my mom makes coffee and we just sit and chat are priceless. The magic of those moments never fade. It is a treasure I hold on to very tight. #Purelove❤️

True! Or maybe not!?

"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by number of moments that take our breath away" #quoteoftheday #life

When you are with someone long enough, you kind of develop a private language. And because you are not with that person any more, it's not like you wake up and suddenly forget how to speak it! - "Your friends and neighbours" turning into my favourite tv show of '25

A person`s tongue, can give you a taste of His heart. - Ibn Al Qayyim

A highly rated film, on simplicity of life, on finding happiness in your 'boring' routine. A film that most would find unwatchable, as you have to walk in Hirayama's shoes to fully comprehend such a way of life. A film that touches the viewer and offers different perspective on life.

Stop making homes out of people who treat you like visitors.

"Of all the hardships a person had to face, none was more punishing than the simple act of waiting." Powerful and heartbreaking. A book one must read during lifetime. A story of love, hate, resilience, hardship and what not. /Book of May; 7th of 2025/

It is a hell of responsibility being yourself. It's much easier being someone else, or nobody at all. - Sylvia Plath's quotes are very deep, dark and hit different.

Sometimes, both a yes and a no could generate equally disastrous consequence! #life

- Central Park - Ellie - Perfect spot - Home made burger or crunch chicken sandwich - Double espresso and 2 ciggies - A bunch of crazy colleagues #PerfectLunch

Cancelled meetings are my favorite types of meetings! 😁 /Office fun and pun/

"I loved you as one loves tragedy, fully aware of ending, yet unable to look away" /Fragments/

More often than not, what people leave unsaid and undone, is far more telling compared to what was obviously expressed. One only is required to pay attention. /Morning contemplations/

In this awesome and peaceful rainy day, a good tune is an added value. Teddy Swims killing it here, better than Shania Twain`s original. #music #life #weekend www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu27...

Love me or hate me, Both are in my favor... If you love me, I will always be in your heart...if you hate me I'll always be in your mind - W. Shakespeare #peakliterature #finereading

No one tells you that adulthood is just gaining and losing the same 15 pounds until you die. #deliciousfood #diet #life

Half of May already and I barely had few days in the office. Yesterday was allowed to work from home, to my absolute delight, not having to make the usual commute. Today, another farewell lunch, having to say goodbye to one very dear American colleague. #workLife

I once dated a man who never asked for anything. One day, I asked why. He looked at me and said: "Because when I ask, people disappear." That sentence hurt more than any breakup I’ve ever had. /Late night reads and quotes/

Awesome to be back at work after a week, finding enthusiasm from colleagues and having plenty of stories to tell. An outside lunch with so much laughter makes this work day more socializing than proper work. #officeLife

My constant travel dilemma: capturing the perfect frame or soaking in the moment. Such a tricky balance between enjoying astonishing architecture and documenting it. My camera roll full while my inner self filing complaints!

Getting around the huge Vienna train station is quite a hassle: such a massive place with so many people running around. Managed to find my train to Budapest, gate AB 12, full of Asians and old Americans, adding some adrenaline to this adventure from the very morning!

Absolutely mesmerized and absorbed by Vienna. I was told she's a beauty, but never imagined to this extent. Every cobblestone whispers history and every royal palace takes you back in time. This city is a walkable dream and a must visit: when u visit, you'll see for yourself.

Wait, it`s May 7 already !!? When did May even start.

There are two tragedies in life. One is not to get your heart`s desire. The other is to get it. - George Bernard Shaw

Beauty in simplicity!

I have to stop overspending on books. This much I know.
