Dreams That Aren’t Mine

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya
  Ever since I was little, I’ve heard stories—of great successes, of glorious victories, of bright worlds waiting to be conquered. I was raised with the idea that dreams are our guiding light, that they are the engine of life, that we move forward through them. But over time, I began to feel that some of those dreams weren’t mine. They seemed to belong to someone else, to an image built from the expectations of others—of society, of family. They were foreign to my heart, yet I carried them like armor that protected me but also weighed me down and held me back. This was one of the most painful truths I had to accept—that many of the dreams I had chased weren’t born of my soul. They were someone else’s dreams, imposed by the outer world, by voices I heard before I had the chance to hear my own. At first, it was hard to admit this. We all want to be loved and accepted, and often we’re willing to sacrifice our own desires just to be approved. My life felt like a journey guided by map...

Have the courage to be yourself without justifying

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya

Life is filled with situations where we are faced with the demands and expectations of others. Social acceptance and approval are incentives that often drive us to change ourselves to fit their ideals and norms. However, in this constant battle for recognition, we can easily lose ourselves. That's why it is important to have the courage to be yourself without justifying.

 
Having the courage to be oneself means accepting and valuing oneself as we are, without conforming to the expectations of others. It doesn't mean becoming irresponsible or ignoring the opinions of others. Nonetheless, it means staying true to ourselves and our values, even if it means rejecting certain standards or avoiding the need to justify our actions.
 
When we have the courage to be ourselves, we expose our true feelings, thoughts, and beliefs to the world. Instead of trying to fit in with others, we choose to be honest and open about who we are and what we want. This allows the people around us to see and understand us in a more genuine way, accepting us for who we are without requiring us to justify or change ourselves.
 
Justifying oneself is often associated with fear of rejection or judgment from others. When we try to justify ourselves, we essentially deny ourselves and our actions. Not only does it deprive us of our individuality and authenticity, but it also prevents us from forming genuine connections with others. By having the courage to be ourselves without justifying, we embrace our true selves and invite others to do the same, fostering a sense of acceptance, understanding, and mutual respect.

Are You Ready?

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya

   Are You Ready? To receive abundance, love, and your own greatness? I sit in the stillness of the morning. I feel something rising from within—like a tide I cannot stop. A thought, a feeling, a realization. I hear it again and again: “Are you ready?” This question doesn’t come from the outside. It is born from the depths of the soul—that quiet yet powerful part of us that knows far more than the mind. Am I ready for the abundance that is already approaching? Am I ready for True Love , the one I’ve long prayed for and yearned for? Am I ready to receive that which I’ve asked for... even when it comes in a way I never expected? Receiving is also a choice Many people believe the spiritual path is only about giving up—desires, attachments, the material world. But there is another phase—perhaps even harder: Being ready to receive. To allow abundance into your life, without sabotaging it. To accept love, without hiding behind the fear of getting hurt. To live joyfully...

The Gardener’s Lesson - The Power of Slow, Steady Dedication and Patience

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya
 In life, we often seek quick results, immediate successes, and visible changes. But true magic, real achievement comes from another quality — patience and the persistence of the gardener. The gardener is a teacher who shows us the lesson of slow and systematic dedication — of committing to a cause with daily work, love, and care. He knows that not every seed sown will sprout immediately, that growth is a process requiring time and attention. This lesson is about that perseverance which remains invisible at first but forms the foundation of every true accomplishment. It is a lesson about overcoming the "lack of immediate effect" — when there is no result, but despite that, a person continues doing what they feel is their calling, their gift. Because a true calling is not measured by the speed of success but by the depth of dedication. The world around us often emits confusion, fear, uncertainty that can distract us from our path. But the gardener is not influenced by the m...

Don't Pull the Flower to Make It Grow Faster: Bulgaria and the Path to the Eurozone

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya

There are processes that cannot be forced. Processes that cannot be accelerated without serious consequences. One of them is natural growth — whether it be of a person, a people, or a nation. When we pull the flower to make it grow faster, we don’t help it develop — we tear it. The same is happening today with Bulgaria and the issue of entering the Eurozone. When There’s No Time to Mature Every society has its own rhythm of maturity — economic, social, cultural. And Bulgaria is in a phase where it needs awareness, dialogue, and public participation in deciding on such a profound change as losing its national currency. But instead — we are being pressured. Politicians and institutions are racing to present “readiness” to European commissions, even when that readiness isn’t real. Reports are manipulated, numbers are dressed up, and the voice of the people is silenced. The fear of a referendum says it all: not because they don’t know what we’ll say — but because they know exactly what...
