Reflections

Klingt voll cool :) Stehst du dann auch auf so nerdy zeug wie cosplays, comic con oder sowas in der art?

Ich kann die Begrifflichkeit nur begrenzt einordnen, aber ich denke nicht, nein. Ich war noch nie auf einer Convention oder ähnlichem und für Cosplays kann ich mich auch nicht wirklich begeistern.

Es gibt ein paar Spiele/Bücherreihen, welche ich recht interessant finde. Dazu zählen zum Beispiel die Monster Hunter und die Metro Reihe, wobei ich bei letztgenannten sowohl die Spiele als auch Bücher sehr unterhaltsam fand.

You can't gain muscle with a vegan diet

Damn, I didn't know that and I've accidentally built muscle. What are we going to do now?

What would be something you would want to say to your younger self if you could?

I think I would share a quote from Robert Jordan with him: "The oak fought the wind and was broken, the willow bent when it must and survived."

As with nearly everything in our world, this quote, offers myriad interpretations. Yet, I interpret it in a way that might have pointed my younger self in the right direction.

The oak embodies strength, steadfastness, and resilience - its very identity. It feels invincible, unyielding, a necessity; should it encounter something matching its strength, it would break. However, as anyone who is living knows, nothing matches life's strength, which strikes relentlessly and unapologetically. An oak, taught only to be strong and never to bend under life's winds, is destined to break. In contrast, the willow symbolizes flexibility, adaptability, and endurance - capable of bending with life's challenges without ever breaking.

The perceived strength of the oak thus becomes its greatest weakness, while the perceived weakness of the willow reveals its true strength.

Yet, I fear these words would fall on deaf ears, for the mindset of "having to be strong" is and always was deeply ingrained within me. Despite years of reflection, I have been unable to purge these thought patterns. It is a deeply rooted behavior, a toxin coursing through my blood, likely forever poisoning my veins.

Hello weltenasche. I know it is kind of a weird question but you inspired me to learn calligraphy and I wanted my first written word to be my name. I try to write with a frakturish (I think that is the font you use?) font but I can't get the "B" to work for the life of me. Could you upload a video where you write a "B" for me? Thank you! - Bella.

Hello Bella, I'm glad you're using me as inspiration to learn calligraphy. Yes, I do write a type of Fraktur script (even a few different ones, to be exact). Don't be discouraged by the majuscules at first; they're really hard.

I've never done this before, but I made a video for you of me writing the letter. Please excuse the messy writing, as it's pretty difficult to write with only one hand while filming with the smartphone in the other.

Just for completeness, I used a "C. Howard Hunt Pen Co, Speedball Pens, C-Series / C-1" for writing. I would recommend a nib with less elasticity for you, maybe one of the Brause & Co, No. 180 series.

I wish you continued success and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Das sind wunderbare Texte! Was inspiriert Dich am meisten?

Meine Feder wird geführt von all den Gefühlen, denen ich auf emotionaler Ebene keinen Platz machen kann.

Die Liebe möchte, dass ich sie nenne, aber nie konnte sie die Muse sein, die Trauer für mich war und ist; Es ist also die Trauer, die ich an ihrer Stelle nennen muss.

Having pencil arms and talking about your passion for sport lmao. Get a grip on reality dude 😂😂😂

I mean, you're not wrong in some ways. There are few things I find more boring than direct arm training.

Was du für mich bist

Die wundersame Melodie,

die in den Winden lebt.

Der flüsternde Regen, 

der auf meiner Haut vergeht.

Die wärmende Sonne, 

die morgendlich in meinem Gesicht erwacht

und jeder zauberhafte Stern

in dunkelster Nacht.

Our Place

Walking through the powdery snow

I passed a place that I still know;

by heart - like every loving memory

that touched my heart so tenderly;

reminding me of all I miss

and every single endless kiss;

mourning as I went my way

I guess nothing gold can stay.

by Weltenasche.

Now that there is a option which says "ask me anything" here i am, i loved your poetry (written in English) for unfortunately i can not read German and looking at those pieces i feel jealous of people who can but my question (finnally) is have you tried typing urself using mbti? I was just hella curious abt ur personality type....now u may say that they r senseless etc......but the cognitive functions just give me an idea, and what was your purpose of starting a blog in the first place .....THANK YOU for giving ur tym into reading this ✨

Thank you for your lovely message. I'm glad you enjoyed my (English) poems. To answer your question:

I have taken a few of these tests in the past due to other people and just took another one and was classified as "ISTJ-A".

Since one of my great areas of interest is psychology, I don't think I need to explain further why I find such tests inadequate and sometimes questionable at best; Even apart of obvious reasons like self and peer assessment.

I'm not sure if the part about why I started this blog was a question, but if it was: It was a decision moved by nostalgia, since I had a blog on Tumblr before, and also a decision of freedom, since Tumblr gives relatively many options for designing a blog, compared to other internet platforms. I also switched from another big internet platform to Tumblr, which can be seen quite well in the anonymous "questions" that are mostly negative; Let's call them remnants from earlier times.

If you have any further questions or remarks, please feel free to let me know.
