The Moment Anyway – A Conversation with Kelly

Today, our attention turns to Kelly — to the responsibility of “deciding who you become when crisis no longer gives direction.” After a cancer diagnosis came treatment, and then the unfamiliar after: the moment when the medical structure falls away, and you’re returned to life without instructions. Nothing comes back the same. As she puts it, “Survival didn’t feel like a finish line. It felt like renegotiation.”

Learning to Notice

It’s strange how small things can make a day feel different. I’ve been thinking about how closely our happiness is tied to believing in the kindness of others — much more than we tend to assume. You lose your wallet, and somehow it finds its way back to you. Returned by a stranger. Someone you never expected to care. And the happiness that follows makes you glow. It surprises you, simply because you didn’t expect it. There are studies that try to explain this, to measure it, to prove it.

The Illusion of Freedom

The concept of freedom has been a significant cultural agenda over time. In books and movies, revolutions and wars, relationships and social institutions — humans are drawn to striving and fighting for freedom. But what is freedom? Isn’t it something given to most modern men by design? Various dictionaries define freedom as ‘the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants’; ‘the power of self-determination attributed to the will; the quality of being independent of fate or necessity’; ‘the state of being unrestricted and able to move easily’; ‘the state of not being subject to or affected by (something undesirable)’, etc.

One Step at a Time

“I am becoming an embodied woman. One who can, or at least tries to, carry it all. But the journey is not linear. It never is.” Soft and intimate, Julia Sara Noëlle  invites us into her world through tender self-portraits taken in the Italian mountains — images that carry the same sense of story and quiet vulnerability as her words.

Wo überall auf immer trifft

Natürlich kann man nicht einfach erzählen, wie eine Reise war und erwarten, dass jemand was damit anfangen kann, wenn er nicht schon selbst da gewesen ist oder die Sehnsucht spürt und an einer Hotelbar mit einem Barmann in Genua oder Nizza darüber geredet hat. Es gibt auf Reisen immer gute Geschichten und lustige, die die Leute mögen und sie wollen diese Geschichten auch hören.

An artist´s life.” The stories of the people behind the art #27 Fabian Perfler

“After finishing high school in Innsbruck, Austria, I moved to Germany to connect with other people. I worked for four years as a photographic assistant to several fashion photographers, which allowed me to fund my own projects, such as traveling and collecting cameras. In 2013, I experienced a mental breakdown for reasons still unknown. As a result, I was unable to work properly for years and had to undergo rehabilitation to find my way back.”

Über den Fluss und in die Wälder

Ich dachte darüber nach, wie wir eine Post gesucht hatten, um den Brief abzuschicken und sie anrief und mir gratulierte und ich nicht wusste, ob sie ihn schon bekommen hatte und still war, zum ersten mal und zum Zweiten, als sie mich nochmal treffen wollte und ich ihr sagte, dass es jetzt nun vorbei sei und sie nochmal fragte, ob ich mir sicher sei und ich sagte, ja. Natürlich möchte man der, die man lange geliebt hat, gerne helfen, aber mit dem, was sie bräuchte, würde man sich aufgeben.

The Unseen Hand

When something is truly meant for you, it won’t trigger chaos in your mind or feed your overthinking. Instead, it will feel like a deep breath, like finally finding your footing after wandering for too long. It won’t leave you questioning every move, swaying between certainty one moment and confusion the next.
