If it’s one thing i learned in my journey it’s definitely documenting. Capturing time and the hidden mysteries of my becoming towards the revelation of my life.
Exactly 3 months after my baptism God planted a seed called Define gift. After closing my former business, new birth was given into a new platform. Dg was invented as an open invitation, where the craftsman would stand as a mediator to translate the Makers revelation through arts.
Following God from the beginning was never easy. I had to unlearn, decrease and detach from what was known. Yet I discovered more of myself and understood there was more.
As i am currently standing in the last days of my 3rd year as a faithful woman. I needed to get to know Christ, hold unto my faith and completely submit myself. To build a trustworthy relationship-partnership with God in order for me to live, create and share.
After 3 years of learning and listening into my becoming of a true disciple. I am now exceedingly exited to represent The Vine through love and sacrifice. With knowledge and understanding. In position and vision.
30 will be more purposeful i could ever imagine.
While I am now sharing this part of my story and much speaking about how to define and appreciate conversation. I get to understand and reminded again that our lives are a magnificent conversation. It’s just one long talk, fluently, sometimes with a bit of stillness or discomfort. Yet it’s ongoing and continues to become even more shaped and natural to do.
But if we could just take the position as well, to hear and see what responses we receive. We get to see allong the way between who and how the dialogue took place.
With love,

The Conversation Jar
I’m grateful to be at the place where my biggest fear has become my greatest love language.
When I tell you that I had difficulties with speaking, it was deep rooted. Coming from a culture where speaking about certain topics wasn’t allowed or ashamed of not being schooled enough to have the vocabulary of a gratitude. I had reasons enough to be silent, yet I kept pushing myself in an industry where that wasn’t an option.
The amount of anxiety I experienced was a burden I carried. As much as I loved a simple conversation, I kept wondering. Did I said the right thing? Have I asked questions that are good enough? No rest, just a lot of thoughts inside.
Outside of that, I could see the freedom in others, to have a confidence so freeing that each word is like a breath that easily flows without a weight. I wanted that but I was stuck in a perfect mindset. “I need to say the right things, or maybe nothing at all?”.
When I started my relationship with God, He took away all my worries. In exchange for His boldness and confidence in the gift of speaking. It didn’t happened in a day, but in due time I saw a change, a desire to speak straight from the heart.
Conversations are so precious, and we can only truly value them if we’re willing to give in ourselves. Not polished, controlled or closed. But sincere and in pure love.
The Conversation Jar creates space to show the person behind the vessel. This time with a little help of cards with questions that has helped me discover, understand and bring light to where I am.
With all my love,
Arindy
One of the questions I asked a friend the other day was: What do you think this generation needs in order to step out of a performative way of living?
It’s a difficult question to answer, yet it’s something we constantly observe and something we should consider in how we contribute through our own platforms. More often than not, people are simply looking for transparency and honest conversation. They want spaces where they can feel grounded, where they can just be.
But stepping into an environment that doesn’t hold that kind of energy in the first place can feel impossible for those who are genuinely searching for it.
That’s why it’s so important for builders, especially those shaping large platforms to be intentional about who they bring into those spaces and what they reflect.
You can only create a place of peace and love when the people around you embody the same values. That’s what allows others to feel drawn in and inspired to move in that same direction.
Because if the foundation isn’t grounded from within, nothing on the outside will make it last.
Every season takes its own
shape, yet what is ahead is secured
by a solid blueprint.
It’s not about what you can see but how
you trust.
Hold on.
Nothing remains in the same place,
everything grows and is in need of
the constant.
Structured by subsistence.

To my joy, remarkable friend and lover. The one who have carried me from the very beginning. You’ve changed my life. You’ve let me overcome and breakthrough from an empty world. You took me by my hand and walk through every valley. Your words have become a light to my feet.
For one moment i thought id leave the crafts, to simply spend a life with you. A sacrifice my heart had made just for you to know that every gift handed to me was never capable to fill the depth of your love.
The closer we got, the more your gentle voice was encouraging me to radiate the light you’ve placed within me. To walk through every door with a warmth cloth that conveys your presence.
Thank you for seeing us, your patience with us, gathering us, remembering us. That indeed your love brings us life and understanding of who we are. You’ve always meant for your children to be secure, loved and known by You.
Thank you for letting me speak. Thank you for your trust. Thank you for making me love them like you do.
Everything for you Jesus.
Not to forget my family & friends.
If I didn’t have you.
I couldn’t be and couldn’t do what i do.
I honor you with all my love.
