Hello June!
Somehow I can’t realize how it’s possible that we are already stepping in month number 6 in the year 2020. Hopefully, June will be evolving itself into better tomorrows and this pandemic situation will start becoming better and better and the world will have a chance to start returning to normal again. As normal as possible, as we knew it before. Yep, I am talking mainly about traveling. I am specifically interested in this subject, especially because now with the current travel ban I and my boyfriend are separated in other countries from each other with the official government’s approval that we are not able to see each other now. And it’s already a freaking long time. So I hope our two countries will open each other as soon as possible so we can finally spend some face-time without a screen between us. So Hello June! I really hope better tomorrows are on the way!
Probably it’s a good sign that this month begins with The Children’s Day. I would like to make a little stop here. Do you have children? Are you celebrating today’s day in your country? In your city? Some interesting traditions to share? Leave a comment below! I feel there is a social pressure around this topic. Society lined up the “right” timelines for us and there is really pressure especially for young women who are getting close to 30. I will be 28 this year. And I don’t have any thoughts about ticking clock and blah blah blah. I hope this is not controversial… but. I have girl-classmates from college who now have kids in kindergarten. Daaamn, I have even girl-classmates from primary school who have now their own kids in primary school.
But if 80% or more of your peers have their own kids it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should already have your own kid now also. I am mainly speaking to girls now. If you are 28, 29, 30, whatever age – it’s not your obligation to have a kid before 30! It’s not your obligation to have a kid at all if we speak about it.. I mean, f#@k society expectations, f#@k stereotypes about what is “right” at a certain age. It’s your body and your mind it’s your decision if you’re not ready for parenting life yet, it’s okay!!! It’s 100% okay!!! We all have our own timelines and nobody, NOBODY, should start stressing about this just because society it’s expecting this from us. Nothing is wrong with you if you still have other interests and other priorities now than is starting your own family. It’s okay to have your own timeline and it’s okay to start thinking about it when you will start to feel ready for it. If you’re not ready don’t let anybody suggest to you those thoughts like there is probably something wrong with you because you’re still single and without kids. There’s nothing wrong with you!!
I am surprised how this post turned out. I didn’t expect from myself or planned to talk about this. But when I mentioned Children’s Day it was somehow convenient and it came naturally to me. What do you think about this? Share your opinions with me in the comments.

We Must Move Out of Our Fear
The fear is almost as deadly as the corona. Fear is real. You have to understand the origin of the fear. Because the same way the corona stopped us, fear has stopped us.
What fear is stopping you from following your dream? Are you worried that it will don’t work? That you will fail? What will happen if you will take a risk into the unknown? Is fear whispering you that it will be better to stay where you are (comfy, comfy, comfort zone)? I will tell you what will happen. If you don’t will take any action today because of what all could go wrong on your way in the direction of following your dream, your tomorrow will look like the exactly the same way as today. Pretty simple. Do you like that image? Are you happy with your place in life right now?
Would you like if it would look the same in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years? If you just smiled, everything is alright and this is not your case. But if the reaction of your face wasn’t really “a happy face”, maybe now is time to shift it into to be scared that your life will still look the same if you don’t will really start to move hard with your ass right now in order to change something.
For a better tomorrow, forget about the past, make a new start, live for today, and don’t let anything hold you back.

Dolores Umbridge Was The First For Social Distancing
In days like those, it’s important not to lose a sense of humor! 😁😁 And like a 90’s kid who grew up on Harry Potter, I simply love this short video
😁
If coronavirus had a name it would be Dolores Umbridge. Best comment under the video is a quote from the movie: “Boys and girls are not permitted to be within eight inches of each other” and in the book, students aren’t allowed to congregate in groups of more than three.”
Any Harry Potter fans around? Admit that you hated Umbridge more than Voldemort also 😁😁
Anyway, even if the restriction in some places becoming less strict, stay home if you can and just follow Dolores’s rules and you will be fine 🤗
