Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, cold, sunny and slightly overcast. It is Good Friday, also known as Easter Friday, in Brazil. In Brazil, it is a bank holiday, and everything will be closed. Traditionally, it is the day when people eat fish instead of meat. This is a Roman Catholic custom and remains very popular in Brazil today. In England, […]
Thursday, the 28th of March 2024: “Thinking About Building a New Life in England”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 7 degrees, bitterly cold, grey and rainy. It is the eve of the Easter bank holiday in Brazil, and depending on each business owner in England, it may or may not be a holiday. Officially, it is an Easter bank holiday on the Monday. I spoke to both Nalva and Yasmin today, asking them to buy chocolates […]
Wednesday, the 27th of March 2024: “Redemption In Its Purest Form”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 5 degrees, bitterly cold, with unsettled weather. So, after the devastation caused by Hurricane Richard yesterday, the aftermath was marked by an eerie calm, insecurity, and shame. What happened yesterday, what I did, and what mistake I committed that could seriously damage my life and happiness. I got up, made my bed, and there was no Julie. […]
Tuesday, the 26th of March 2024: “Drowning in Toxicity: A Struggle for Love and Normalcy”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 12 degrees, warmish, sunny and slightly overcast. Today is Tuesday, and it feels like nuclear bomb day! Basically, I’ve been under stress with my mother since I started going out with Julie, and yesterday’s conversation almost led to arguments; the atmosphere in the house is extremely tense. It started relatively mild, with some signs of narcissism, entitlement, […]
Monday, the 25th of March 2024: “Motherly Love without the Necessary compassion”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, bitterly cold, grey and with rain. It is the first day of the last week of the month, and also the first day after a wonderful weekend. My weekend with Julie, probably our first weekend where we saw each other on both Saturday and Sunday, was also nice for spending some quality time with her […]
Sunday, the 24th of March 2024: “Sunday with ‘The MAN’”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 7 degrees, cold, sunny and slightly cloudy. After a marathon day yesterday, I woke up briefly at 4:00 in the morning, then fell back asleep, and only woke up at 9:00 a.m. It was a beautiful, sunny day, with the birds complaining aloud and the local church bells ringing. I wasn’t hungover, but I was feeling slow. […]
Saturday, the 23rd of March 2024: “Our special Day at Worcester and After”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 7 degrees, bitterly cold, bursts of sunlight and sometimes showers. What a Saturday! I hadn’t seen Julie to go out with last night, but I had seen her in the morning when I went to the café. However, we couldn’t go out in the evening, as I had a class at 9:00 p.m. I did a tough […]
Friday, the 22nd of March 2024: “Navigating Through Life and Love”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, sunny but slightly cloudy. Just a typical Friday with classes running late into the evening. The weight of the week is beginning to show, and I am feeling tired. This is normal and common; if I were in Brazil, it would be the same. However, what differs is working until 10 or 11 p.m., which […]
Thursday, the 21st of March 2024: “Serendipity with a Twist”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, chilly, overcast and trying to rain. What a great Thursday! The beginning was a little strange, with twists and turns, but by the end of the day, everything was good. If I hadn’t sent a message to Julie first thing, then she wouldn’t have sent me a message, which makes the whole situation seem petty, […]
Wednesday, the 20th of March 2024: “Looking for Balance”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, fresh, overcast and with rain later. It is Wednesday, the middle of the week, and we’re nearing the end of the month. A lot is happening in my personal life. This beautiful, little, perfect woman has now taken up a large part of my life. It was not planned to be so violent at such […]
