I Break The News

Hello everyone, Welcome back to your favorite literature blog. My second book ' Hope is ' or ' Hoffnung ist ' is out now. Exactly 3 years after my very first original book ' Thoughts ' I am following up with this one. Hmm... what does the world need most right now? Honestly, I don't even know where to start. I can only work with what I have, where I am right now. I would say one of the most crucial things is hope, so I compiled 70 quotes about it. Each quote is illustrated with a nice font on a colorful background — either a photo or plain colors. I made two versions: one in English and one in German. With this book, I hope to inspire and uplift the reader. If even one person feels better and encouraged after reading this book, my mission has been accomplished. Find it in the My Music and Books section of the blog.  Within this article, you can see a few examples of the content.  I will have another book recommendation for you later this week.  Also, I am c...

Hello everybody, I think now is a good time to talk a little bit about my plans for this Blog in 2025. I would like to get involved in the conversation, I would like to add to it. This is why I want to post something   that is currently relevant or something I am thinking about several times a week . I don't use any social media so I can do that instead. Makes way more sense. Every day - but not on the weekends because I need some downtime. This way, we can experience all kinds of developments together. I am willing to talk about most things that are currently going on in the world in areas such as: creativity, music, NEWS, books,  inspiring people , experiences, animals, day trips - crisis intervention. However, there is one thing I will NEVER talk about and that is politics. I was very concerned about it in 2016 but now I'm so over discussing it, at all. So if you are up for it, stop by often, so you don't have to go through all of this crap by yourself. And I don't h...

  Will need a good heater! Are you tired of living in a small cramped and overpriced place in the middle of a hectic and crowded city? Then you probably fantasize about taking a break and living somewhere far away from all the stress in a cabin in the woods.😃🌲🌲🌲 Now look what popped up in my YouTube recommendations! An instruction on how to build your own cabin.  Check out the video here for some inspiration for when you are ready to leave the city life behind:  Cozy Off Grid Cabin In The Woods Start To Finish .    And here is another one. This one is called: Off Grid Cabin In The Woods...Start to finish .  With the current prices of the housing market in most big cities, these are some great alternatives. Just don't do it in Canada, it is freezing cold there. I'm telling you.☃️

If we can not travel much let's make the home more colorful, right on time for Autumn! Creative thoughts happen in creative spaces after all. Etsy is a space like that. We like products that are handmade and only available there, sold directly by the creators. Check out this small selection of items you can find on their marketplace. We have dabbled in RESIN jewelry before too, sounds like another online store waiting to happen!  🤔  Could also be included in Miss Gatsby. We shall see. So many possibilities! Also check out Etsy for creative gift ideas. Surprisingly enough - Christmas is not that far away. How did this happen?! Now seriously, can we travel again..

We LOVE our planet, nature and the wild but you may have already noticed that while browsing this blog. Somebody who also loves nature and obviously all things floral, is the artist behind this cool idea. His name is Nicolai Tolstyh and today is a good day to discover his work, for example on instagram . This self described journalist, bibliophile, art lover and natural craftsman is based in Russia. If you take a look at his fine and very detailed cutouts, and the final photo result, you can see he is taking the time to find the right match in the background, for the theme of each silhouette individually. All his captions are in Russian and we would be able to tell you more about this artist, if only we would have paid just a little more attention to Russian class back in the day. However. Inspiring idea! all artwork  ©  Nicolai Tolstyh

It is Sunday and because we are a blog, we would like to talk about something 98% of all other blogs are talking about FASHION ! First of all this is not a fashion blog so please big fashion companies - stop throwing money and expensive clothes at me! I have no more space to store them.. The reality is, nobody actually does that because I am not a Fashion Blogger . I do not follow dictated trends and I do not see the point of posting 20 photos of myself from 10 different angles in one article because I am not that self-absorbed. I do however, have a lot of respect for Fashion/Lifestyle Bloggers who have built up their site from zero followers to big audiences completely on their own, managing it, maintaining it and coming up with interesting content and product reviews we can all learn from. :) Some people just have a great sense of style and share it. So, good job! What I am not a fan of, are  brag blogs  like 'look where I am now, look I just shopped at Chan...

Hello again dear readers, thanks for stopping by at IBreakTheNews.com on this rainy Sunday! There is a huge raincloud outside of my window as I type this. But that does not bother me much because I am writing to you, from this freshly renovated room! Today's topic are books - books you can potentially find in the tube to be exact. If you live in London you have probably developed a sincere dislike of anything that has to do with the tube or underground as it is also called. It is a crowded, super narrow space, people are rude and if you could, you would skip it all together. But you can not cause you won't take the bike because you have read in the always negative newspaper that this would be basically suicide. So you get on the train every morning. You expect nothing but the worst. Me too. :) Lately I am listening to my favorite music during my trip and I don't even pick up any of the daily papers. If you like a positive mindset I recommend you do the...
