Previously with KITOFOTO ...
The last time I ended up revealing some of my passions, I thought that by unveiling myself, it would break the ice between you and me. I have to tell you that when I thought about the structure of my blog, when creating the site. I had imagined to all of your comments about the previous article in the first paragraph of the new post. But to my utter despair, no one took the time to comment. I feel so lonely ... Well, that's not quite the truth.
KITOFOTO is a project on which I spent a lot, like, a lot of time relearning web programming, thinking about the design and comfort of navigation and also working on my computer to get the best rendering of my photos. I am perfectionist, i needed the website to be perfect before promoting it to my loved ones. As for my photos, I only showed them to a few of them. So I was a little nervous when I posted on my Facebook page a link to my site with some photos. I did the same on Instagram, which I did not use, but, which has become an excellent tool to show my work to the world. Here we are Monday, June 4 at 21:46, me alone in front of my screen and waiting for the fire of the critics. Well... since the publication of my photos, the many notifications of the Instagram application have not stopped boosting my ego. However, the opinions that mattered the most to me were, of course, those of my family and relatives. Thank you. Thanks all of you. I was assailed with compliments, congratulatory messages about either the website design and the quality of my photos. It seriously touched me. Seriously, it goes straight to my heart and it matters a lot to me.
Let's go back to my introduction, rather than talking about studies or travel experiences, I prefer to pick topics such as projects, dreams, goals that you are pursuing. Let's talk about the future, this future that you can choose the shape, the color, the appearance, rather than the past, which is already engraved and which we can do nothing else besides narration. But some cling to their stories and others are afraid of the unknown of the time to come. I have met few dreamers in my life, those who have dreams, projects to achieve and who dare to hang on. I like to believe that I'm one of those.
What are your projects and dreams KITOFOTO?
Before reaching this topic, I still need to talk about me, my vision of the world, the values that hold me. You did not see the counterpoise coming, did you? In the end, I will tell you about my studies ... just a small part. After having started for a few months a Master degree in Accounting and Audit Control, I decided to quit school before "it becomes too serious ". That's stupid but I started this school without really asking myself why. It was just the logical continuation of my bachelor degree in Finance and Accounting. By the way, these matters did not tickle my interest that much. But I knew that if I have persevered in the path, after obtaining the master degree, I would have continued and I would have made my career in this branch, even if it would have made me unhappy.
So rather than persisting towards an unfortunate future, I have decided to take time for myself, to reflect on what I really wanted. The basics. My introspection took me a lot of time and what came out of it is that the urban and modern way of life does not suit me. I suffocate here and I have the unpleasant sensation of suffering from an environment that I have not chosen. I've always been keen of the great outdoors. Anyway, I can't and I do not want to be part of this consumerist society. I'm looking for a simpler lifestyle, more real, more in harmony with nature ... In addition, since my 20 years, my minimalist side asserts itself more and more. I try to consume so as to minimize my ecological footprint and because of this, I consume only the strict necessary. Moreover, it is like commercials, store shelves, magazine'ads have lost all their persuasive power. I feel the need for nothing.
I have the satisfying impression that I have managed to dispel this fog in front of my eyes. You know, this fog that incites to consume constantly. Buy useless things, pile them up, accumulate them. This fog that makes you believe that you will be satisfied, because I have a nice watch, pretty shoes, the latest fashionable phone. I think I have succeeded to get rid of this fog that made me believe that happiness could be bought. And since then, I feel much better, it's the same feeling of clarity that I feel since I stop smoking cigarette, after 10 years of being slave to nicotine.
In the end, I will need a third part to talk about my projects and dreams. I hope you enjoyed the reading. And we'll meet again next weekend for the last part of my introduction. Take care of yourself.
