From My Corner of the World

This is my personal diary — a space where I try to make sense of the world around me. You'll find short prose on contemporary topics that catch my interest. What can you expect? The best adjectives? … maybe, once in a while. Flowery verbs? … not really my thing. Haiku-like brevity? … I try. Thanks for stopping by — hope you’ll visit again.
