• Rabbit, spider … or something else?

    Normally I publish the articles after having had a good thought through everything. More of less. In case needed, I research longer and then start writing … but for this one I thought I would change the rule. I will just let you be part of my thought process of how things usually develop in…

  • A very unnecessary collection of necessary things

    If you are anything like me… you probably have 100,000 screenshots on your phone of things you didn’t want to forget. But of course you forget anyways .. they quietly disappear into the never-seen-again abyss of your camera roll… only to randomly resurface when you’re looking for something completely different once in a lifetime. And…

  • Support should not be a privilege

    I have been taking care of a little 6-year-old girl who is the most adorable little thing you could ever meet. Her mind is all over the place, she sometimes seems lost, but the most caring and loving little being. Her teachers were at loss with her as she could get lost so easily. She…

  • Bruce Lee – Resilience comes from who you really are inside … not what the world wants you to be

    My colleague told me “I saw xxx in the bus yesterday. And all I could think of was “this is Svenja’s work”. What he meant by that is that the boy he was talking about made a 180 degree change from before he met me as opposed to now. I told my colleague that while…

  • When Survival Becomes Identity

    She sat in front of me quietly and slid her diary across the table.“Read this,” she said and opened it to one specific page.The words were written in big, heavy letters: “Who would want a daughter like me?Who would want a sister like me?A friend… let alone love?” I looked up at her. The interesting…

  • A diamond in the wrong hands is just a stone

    He showed me something like an identity card with Korean writing and “Taekwondo black belt 1st Dan.” He told me that in Taekwondo they have something similar to kata, which is called poomsae. When he got his black belt decades ago, he had to perform in front of a committee of 10 judges from Korea.…

  • Playlist – updated 18.2.2026

    Listen to the song here in my heart = Listen to who I am inside. Who I am. Not who you wish me to be. Not what the world expects me to be. But who I am. A melody I start, but can’t complete = I have started to be me when I was a…

  • Our deepest fear …

    Our deepest fear …

    “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.…

  • I’ve been a little quieter online lately, because I’ve been a little louder in real life.

    I’ve been a little quieter online lately… not because the project or the work stopped … but because it grew.
