I poured so much into Anna's journey, and I truly believe her story will resonate deeply with many of you. From the quiet shadows of a schoolyard, where a young Anna faces the sting of bullies, to the dazzling heights of the tech world as CEO of Innovatech, her story is a powerful testament to resilience. But success, as Anna discovers, doesn't erase the past. Her childhood scars linger, challenging her even as she builds an empire. In "The Algorithm of Her Heart" , I wanted to explore universal themes of self-acceptance , personal growth , and the power of true friendship . You'll follow Anna as she navigates the complexities of her past, the allure of two very different men – Elias, her steadfast childho...

Starting a new adventure

    Blogger notes: Starting a new adventure!




Hello, my dearest Story Time friends from around the world. In this blog post, I want to share with you a new adventure I'm embarking on. I have been avoiding discussing politics on my blog since I removed the old content. But I also realize that all I am really doing is sharing a part of me and my life. I am not here to try to convince anyone of anything. I simply prefer to stand in my truth and do what I can to make a positive impact in the communities around me. A role I fulfill while wearing many hats in society. What can I say? My royal crown makes it look like magic when I bring my projects together. As you guys know, I have been busy in the Amazon rainforest. Normally, I like to travel to all parts of the country. But lately, I have been paying extra attention to Sipaliwini. A part of the country where I am the least known. At first, I thought it would be my relaxation paradise, far from the other cities where I tried to blend in and fool myself that people had no idea who I was while I roamed around with my glasses on and off. Sipaliwini was where I would come to find peace. It still is a place where I try to find peace. But even when the people there don't really know who I am, I managed to find myself surrounded by individuals who, like me, have dreams for the future of this country. Their future, our future, is, after all, what will help shape the world. Apparently, it's now officially proven that you can throw me in a jungle, and people would still find me. 😁 It's what it is, just like how I received a loving and warm welcome from friends in other parts of the country, I also received the same love from Sipaliwini. I fell in love with the rivers, jungles, and villages. I know that perfection is an illusion, but I believe these communities deserve a quality of life. Quality of life has been my vision for this country for a long time. I mentioned in the media that, in my opinion, each Surinamese citizen deserves to experience well-being and welfare. Of course, when I am talking about welfare, I mean prosperity. Surinamese people are innovative, creative, and visionary. However, just like other countries around the world, we have also experienced corruption.😓 Sadly, the damage it has left on our economy will affect future generations. However, my inner philosopher and probably warrior queen refuses to surrender to negativity or a pessimistic future. It's something I wouldn't tolerate in my own life, and as a leader, it's something I wouldn't tolerate in my team. I have been a member of the National Party of Suriname for 10 years now, and in all those 10 years, not one position has interested me. I preferred being the background person, or the girl who occasionally shows up to do projects, or someone who knows how to magically gather people. I did this because I genuinely believe in the capabilities of Dr. Gregory Rusland, the Chairman of the National Party of Suriname. ( Not an ad, just telling the Story, perceive it how you want). But also because I want a better future for the people that I care about. It might not look like it, but behind the scenes, it's a long list. 😤😐 When I unexpectedly participated in the last election, I made zero promotional effort for myself. However, what was wasted was all the effort people made on my behalf. For the minimal effort my people put in, they accomplished a great deal for me and worked diligently. What better motivation could a youth leader need? Some people have been with me on my adventures for years now. I am in no hurry and enjoying the process. In these moments, I get to experience love for the people around me. That's why I love giving back. Nothing new for my empathic heart. I enjoy helping people whenever I can, even when I'm struggling myself. Maybe it's because I know what it's like to have to fight different battles to protect your dreams. In the last couple of years, I have been focusing more on giving training and classes to the indigenous communities living in these parts of the Amazon rainforest. I have been exploring these parts, getting acquainted with the locals, and listening to their needs. The projects I undertake in Suriname's interior are tailored to their needs. I ask them what skills they want to learn during a krutu (village meeting), and when they answer, I go back to do my homework to see how I can make it possible with the help of my own network. Occasionally, when it's something I can't handle, I'll go back to my political party like a kid and ask, ' What can we do to make equal opportunities possible? ' I am not from Sipaliwini, but I was approached to become a main board member of the National Party Suriname in that district because of my good work in these communities. I would like to date, not to the common impression, but I have. War, a party that communicates about issues, I have been receiving phone calls from my friends in Sipaliwini who didn't know about it. They showed me so much love and support, and are excited. Because what does this move mean? I'm embarking on a new adventure, and I'm doing it in a place where I'm least known. That's because I love a good challenge, and I enjoy building with people when I'm not drained. I have been growing in my career and personal development. This next step was one that I made because I have faith in the future of these communities. Watching the little children sing the national anthem while welcoming the NPS delegation in the village of Malobi warmed my heart. In the end, I do it for them. There are many more projects that I want to undertake in the southern parts of the country. But for now, I am taking it one step at a time by doing what I can when I can with the awesome people around me. The installation of the mainboard and its peripheral cores was held on January 28, 2023. The trip was tiring because it was the first time I traveled from the city to the village and back to the city in one day. I didn't mind because I knew it was going to be worth it. I am laying the foundations for the future, and while sowing these seeds, I may share with you in a future blog post how the adventure turned out. Wish me good luck on my new adventure, guys, and I hope you enjoyed the video I made. Wish me lots of luck and pray that my soul stays on the right path. Until next time, right here on Story Time.
