My inspiration for the Chapter 24 of the story "Trying to remember" 🩷

Sunday 🩵💚💙

Real coffee girl ☺️ Well ok, it was just my idea, photo and video (for my work too), but I have perfect friend, who is an artist 🩷

Good morning 🩷

All day today I've been trying to finish writing a chapter (and I will finish it, I know!) and I've also been lost in thoughts about the connection between reality and a virtual reality. At what point does the line between the two become blurred and is it possible to limit it, especially for creative people?

"Your stories soothe and comfort me every time I read them. They heal my wounded heart. The realisation that I’m gonna open the app and continue reading one of your stories at the end of the day makes me feel excited and inspired."

When I received a message with these words, my heart melted and I almost cried, because I realized how my little virtual creativity influences a person's real life and makes it сosier.

What can I say, I myself used to run to the park once a week, buy an Americano and impatiently open a new chapter from the author of the story that had captured my heart. And it's also a mixture of reality and creativity. Needless to say, I was really sad when the author deleted his story and decided not to finish it. In real life, I stared at the screen and thought, why? But it served as the inspiration for the very story whose chapter I am trying to finish today.

Reality and the virtual world... They have long been intertwined, and only man can keep them in balance. We work online, we make friends online, we love online.

I met my husband 17 years ago on social media, and we started a family. My best friend, who has known me since I was 7, has lived in another country for a few years now, but almost every morning we start with a video for each other. My brother and his family live in another city, we communicate through these invisible networks that have enveloped our lives, and here I am baking cookies and sending a piece of my reality by post. I met a girl by liking a photo of her interior, we chatted online and one day we met at a community yoga class coincidentally. We chatted for over three hours in real life, then had a picnic in the park together and now my soul mate lives in Spain...

So is there a connection? Could one be without the other? All day long I keep rolling these thoughts around like shiny balls in the palm of my hand... And yes, I'm finishing a chapter 💛

The end of the season, the rink is empty...

After a break of almost a month, I went out on the ice without my own skates and my first thought was, "Well, why? I could have had a coffee in peace..." 😅

But I'm stubborn, and after a few minutes my legs got used to it, my body remembered everything.

Well, it's a kind of meditation...❄️

One of my favourite jokes 👌

Girl: "I'm fine, no problems, I'm fine!" Also her: walking halfway across town to her house with headphones in her ears. 🙃

"There's a grain of truth in every joke," they say. ☀️

My birthday present from a close friend ☀️

This is a very calming, meditative activity... We both seemed to be lost in our thoughts.

It was warm and cozy in the workshop and it was snowing outside the window... ❄️

My inspiration ❤️ Part 11 🩷

My gift for friends and relatives this year ☺️

I don't think I've ever baked so many cookies, and it all started in mid-December. I even sent them by post 🥲

And baking cookies was also the inspiration for a scene in one of my stories ✨
