Hello '26

🤔

Where to start, what to do…I'm as nervous as a six year old on his first day at school. First Substack of the year. First Substack ever. This publication is a journey of what was, will, and is to come.

Believe me, this is how I look irl.

Challenging myself has been quite disorienting, since I want to do everything and be everywhere, all at once. Ideas in my head are like the elements and characters in the JPEG below. Imagine them toppling over each other, and trust me it's a tug-o-war just to keep them in line, since these little rascals are so eager to get ahead of one another.

Creativity indeed thrives in chaos.

Imagine yourself plagued with the gift of self-expression…Contradictory right? Yea, I'm a walking contradiction and I seldom believe that WE all are. Humans never fail to surprise me anyways, and they must have that same effect on you too.

The underside of self-expressiveness…You know what to say, you know what you want to do, you know what you want to write about, yet its description plays hide and seek with you. Because when it's time to bring these ideas to life, into the real world, your mind decides to take a vacation and morph into the infamous SpongeBob meme.

Contradiction..I believe, is the Ying and Yang of the human existence.

That brought me to the unanswered question..where is my mind? What replaces my mind when it's time for the actualisation of these crazy ideas?

Until I find an answer, I will relish in the dopamine I get from the tussle between the heavyweights. One splitting the wig of another, while I watch as the lesser gets trampled in the stampede.

Intrigued by the beauty of these ideas amidst the chaos, the noise! Like..Yea, the World is ending but what does it matter? Why hurry? God is directing this.
