Hi,

welcome to this blog where you will find insights from my life.

This blog was inspired by a vacation. I visited California in November 2019. More than 150 years earlier, California was subject to a gold rush. People retrieved nuggets of gold from streams and river-beds. As a consequence, California has since then been perceived as a place of new beginnings, where great wealth could reward hard work and good luck.

I did not find physical gold on my trip, but I did something similar to gold-mining. In the mornings, while awake and still lying in bed, I would watch my internal stream of thoughts. Carefully I would be aware of every notion, association and perception that would flow through my body. I was looking for nuggets of thought. Insights, changes of mind and surprising connections that made me feel alive and connected to the source of all being.

And just like the gold-seekers more than a century ago, I was rewarded with wealth, good luck and a new beginning in November 2019.

Every day before getting up to discover new places, I would write down my nuggets of thought.

Later I transcribed them into posts and published them on this blog.

My hope for you is that you will find yourself attracted to the rush of ideas that was given to me. Ideas can only multiply in value if we share them and build on them. So feel free to be inspired, to use the nuggets of thought and to share them with anybody who wants to live a better life.
