“I am a voice of one crying out in the wilderness…” (John 1:23, The Bible´s New Testament)
…It was an early afternoon on the International Women´s Day of 2011., when I finally decided to start something usefull, to write a blog about my deep, mostly spiritual and philosophical thoughts that I had during those miserable days spending as a homeless 29-year old man on the filthy streets of the capital of Croatia, a small ex-Yugoslavian country in the southeast corner of Europe.
In my first posts that I wrote on that simple blog on the Index.hr platform, a Croatian alternative news medium service, was a collection of thoughts, sayings and stories that came to my mind during my long walks through the streets of Zagreb, as well as hiking on the nearby mountain of Medvednica (where I was reading spiritual books, and tried to meditate and do other spiritual practices).
In that few years (2011. – 2013.), I have written more than 100 short poem-like texts, all during the moments of great inspiration and admiration for the wild nature, and, I believe with a constant presence of the “Higher Divine Force”, as I used to call it.
After a while, I organized most of these short texts and published them in the form of the e-book “Verbum Opus Exornat” (which you can read free of charge in the Croatian language at the link Digitalne knjige by I.C. ), and later translated them into English and published them on these pages.
All these sayings, thoughts and short stories are also available on this page:
Spiritual Thoughts, Stories and Beyond…
Engrave Your Name With the Letters of Fire…
The Greatest Law of the Universe…
People Are Like Unlit Candles…
Man, the Greatest Puzzle of the World…

Your Past Hides Your Greatest Sins…
The Greatest Evils of the Material World…
Is Life the Big Theatrical Performance?

Your poems are wonderful, deep thought and spiritual meaning, that’s how I read them…I’ve only got through one fourth of them. You should publish them on Amazon for a nominal fee.

Thank you very much! 🙂
Yes, I have considered to publish all of my current and finished works at Kobo or other online book publishing platform (like Amazon or Smashwords), in e-book and printed format. But due to the fact that it costs a lot of money to publish professionaly edited books, I was thinking of making a crowdfunding project this summer, as a combination of my holistic teaching/walking adventure and a book publishing donation. Anyway, I was thinking about what you wrote about gofundme, maybe I will try to do something regarding my journey preparations.
Have a merry Christmas! 🙂
