Dear Welcome to My World of Dreams Blog,
Thank you for having me! I’m excited to be here and to share some thoughts with you. To me, view is not based on space or room, but on feeling, as in presence and inner clarity. I can write and create anywhere. Whenever and wherever impulses show up, that becomes my setting.
There is no particular, fixed place where I write. I do have a room for training and a vocal booth for recording, though. Everything else happens where it happens. If I were to mention one cozy place I like to linger, that would be the couch with my two little squared coffee tables, which are placed near a big window that opens into a lush, sunny green world. Trees are so beautiful and majestic. Sometimes I feel like they are not appreciated enough for their selfless service. I often drink herbal tea there and watch the fluffy squirrels perform their acrobatics while the birds sing or rest on their favorite branches, both waiting for me to serve them some snacks soon.
My view on the inside is more spiritual. The one on the outside depends on the location in the moment when I feel the urge to hold on to a special thought, writing it down or recording it quickly in voice memos, so that every now and then, I can revisit those ideas and see if my inner voice wants to whisper something new or finalize it.
Whenever something catches my attention longer than usual, I start playing with words. It could feel like processing, or a way of closing, but sometimes, that impulse becomes lyrics, melodies, or even complete songs. It does not matter where I am, because awareness and creativity do not need rituals or a special place to unfold for me. They are a state of mind that can be nurtured everywhere.
Emotions are my drive. Life is my stage.
So, if you ever see me somewhere, nodding rhythmically with no headphones on, in a moment of calm, satisfied flow, do not worry. I am just composing on the go. If you would like to witness how I complete the lyric excerpts from my award-winning book of poetic pop song fragments, Words to Think. Or to Sing., even a little closer, join me on this creative music unfolding journey on Substack. I would be thrilled to see you there!
In intensity,
Yours,
Intensia

Enjoy an Excerpt
S T A I R C A S E I saw red while you held my hand
on that hill in a castle of sand
being nice, coming out of the blue
you were losing me, undeniably true
I was just another trophy for your shelf
overloaded by the further rusty twelve
Dissociating from this charming place
you are a mess inside, I know it’s the case
this romance had better leave no trace
but at sunset we sat here on the staircase
THE HIGHER THE STAIRCASE, THE CLEARER THE VIEW.
