27-6-2021Have you ever read Ecclesiastes 2 before? Where you find Solomon kind of monologuing and a bit arguing with himself. Where you find him being disappointed every time he finds out that practically everything he does here on earth, "under the sun" as he put it, is a pursuit of the wind. Bless him. Have … Continue reading A Pursuit Of The Wind
He Will Still Choose Us
“Break my heart. Break my heart into a thousand pieces.” After hearing this frase and seeing the gesture in the sequel To All The Boys: P.S. I Still Love You I went through a moment of reflection. It made me think:This is what Jesus does. This is what He has already done. Lara-Jean is in … Continue reading He Will Still Choose Us

A Short Goodbye and a Speedy See You Soon from Daisy. This will be her last time writing under the L.O.G. category, but for sure not her last time on Tashmness.

To Enjoy Enjoying
I wrote this piece 2,5 months after I arrived in Portugal. That's now three years ago. I'm getting back to these pieces and texts I'm finding that I wrote before. To still share them, yes, but also to enlighten me. It's funny to see that three years ago I had these same thoughts or actually … Continue reading To Enjoy Enjoying
It’s Not About You
Sometimes it's just not about you. Well in this case, not about me. I recently had a moment with my mother where I explained what I didn't like or what I didn't enjoy. And she kindly gave me the reminder back that sometimes it's just not about me. Have you had moments where someone overly … Continue reading It’s Not About You
[WID0056] Guest Post by Rebeca: The Transition Phase
As I said goodbye to 2022, in the middle of December 31st, an overwhelming set of emotions came up taking my whole body into chaos. Sadness, defeat, and anxiety took over me as I looked back to the year I had. So many plans that didn't happen. So many dreams left to be dreamed again. … Continue reading [WID0056] Guest Post by Rebeca: The Transition Phase
Faith Versus Fate
I have been reading the Bible from Genesis to Revelation for about two or three years now I think. Starting first with a chapter a day, then to two chapters a day and now back to one chapter a day. Today I started (re-)reading the book of Acts, where I noted the following: Acts 1:24-36 … Continue reading Faith Versus Fate
[WID0055] Guest Post by Maartje: A New Beginning!
I think I can say that we are all ready for a new beginning, always, that is very human in some way. Many songs have been written (Interested? Then listen to Next Year, Baby by Jamie Cullum) about it and every year you hear, see and notice that people around you share New Year's resolutions. … Continue reading [WID0055] Guest Post by Maartje: A New Beginning!
Who’s Your Audience?
Do you know that strain of thought when you are preparing for something or preparing to go somewhere and your mind imagines the people being there? For example when you have a presentation to prepare for the defense of your thesis and you imagine the classmates that will be present or the teachers you know … Continue reading Who’s Your Audience?
Spiritually Hangry [Part 2]
30-12-2022These past days, like 4 or 5, I've been waking up and allowing my brain to spiral. Not necessarily my thoughts, but really my brain. No proper routine during the day, no to-do-list to check off, thoughts of things I need to pay, but also of payments I still need to receive, plans of what … Continue reading Spiritually Hangry [Part 2]
