I am Matti.
Living a quiet life with:
•dogs
•small cafés
•trips to places near water or hilltops
I love and need my sleep! Once awake, I'm a coffee vampire.
My attitude:
The world we live in moves in duality: Astonishingly beautiful & cruel beyond reason. I see three ways to channel that:
1) Silently endure.
2) Flee into art/ activity or
3) Take action for change.
Sadness is truth. Self-pity is performative. You're into complaining, judging & fingerpointing? Ghost off.
I personally dont understand political theatrics or many things people stress about. We live on a spinning rock drifting through a black void. Wether you appreciate your blink of existence or not: It won't last.
Even If nobody can't outrun their nature, a person who tries to be a flicker of light in that dark matter is remarkable to me. No irony here.
