The Year I Was No Longer Needed – 2025
It’s midway through January of 2026, and I’ve spent the last two weeks sick. In that stillness, I found myself reflecting deeply on 2025 and all the change that unfolded throughout the year. So much shifted in my life, and with that change came a quiet turmoil in my emotional well-being. I had to learn Continue reading

It’s Been A While
I’m sorry for the silence. This platform has always been a space I built for myself—to reflect, to process, to be honest. But for a while, it also became a reminder of just how much has happened. The truth is, I don’t think I ever fully processed the last 11 years of my life. But Continue reading

Rich or RICH
Rich. For the most part, it’s all I ever wanted. I wanted to be rich. Rich enough that money didn’t have to be a part of the conversation. Rich enough that people would stop looking down on me. Rich enough to silence everything. Rich enough to find peace. Money was always a part of the Continue reading

The Weight I Carry
“I could never die, nor even think about something like suicide because, for as hard as life might be, for as much as I’ve been through, there are people I could never disappoint.” I said this to my therapist last year. For the longest time, it had been just a feeling—an unspoken truth buried beneath Continue reading

Watching Them Grow
As you get older, you start to understand the quiet ache that some parents carry—the pain of watching the people you love grow up. At first, it’s in the small things. When the kids move out.

His words scattered like fallen leaves, unheard and unheeded. His dreams were suffocated by his relentless greed, disguised Continue reading

The Calm in Desperation
When there isn’t much hope, what’s left is desperation. You cling onto everything and anything that gives you the strength to continue. When all odds are against you, the choices you have become quite clear, yet at the same time, these choices feel like a blade being held to your neck. Have you ever felt Continue reading

What’s next for Serendipitymind.ca?
“Serendipitymind” has been a safe haven for all of my thoughts and feelings for the last year that I’ve been working on this blog. A place where I could talk freely while building this platform. I was able to share my journey and experiences with all my readers and in being able to do so, Continue reading

Threshold
I would like to believe that in my life I’ve constantly challenged myself and by doing so, built up a threshold that has allowed for consistent growth. Whether this growth was significant never mattered because what mattered most was that I was constantly moving forward. Understanding that within the confines of my life there would Continue reading

Time is Precious
Time is forever moving. Even if our lives stop, time continues to move forward with no regard for what we are going through. Even during some of the harshest times of my life, time was the only constant. As I stood in place, stuck in life, time continued to move. With time also came age, Continue reading
About Me
I’m no one more special than any of you reading this. I work as a custodian during the evenings but every other time of the day I spend chasing a dream I’ve had since I was 16.
I have always believed there to be more to this life and I hope with this blog, my stories and journey in life, that I can share my experiences with all of you.
