Milk The Pigeon

Today we are going to talk about something slightly different than technology. Today, we are going to talk about life, and living it.

Have you ever thought that your life was meaningless? Do you ever feel “lost” and does not know what to do with your life? Or that everything you do is pointless? Everything that can go wrong, did go wrong for you? Recently, I have come across a blog that can “answers” those questions for you for I am in a similar situation as well.

Milk The Pigeon, created by blogger Alexander Heyne, is perhaps what you need. Milk The Pigeon is for all those lost souls out there looking for a purpose in life. Heyne created the blog because he knew exactly how it feels. He admitted that he was not happy with his life, even when he has a good job with good pay. Still, he felt that life was unfulfilling. He sought to change it for the better. He truly believed that “the purpose of life is to live out your own meaningful story, and the only way you can achieve that is by carefully, deliberately crafting it. It would not happen on its own”. The receptions from his audiences were great, with each post gained dozens of responses, some posted questions looking for advice and others continuing the discussion, but it can be seen that everyone had gone through (or are living it) similar situations.

The most interesting about this blog is Heyne updated it almost regularly. He continually updates new contents and new topics to be discussed every now and then. Milk The Pigeon was born in 2011 and still remains active to this day. The topics includes advices to life-coaching, and Heyne relates it all with his own anecdotes. Further, he also includes extra content such as pictures or videos from YouTube, or links to other websites that he thinks can be very helpful in making his point. And the last but not the least, Heyne’s language style is very convenient to read through. This is also adds to fact that he did not cramps up the whole paragraph just to make his argument. You can see that Heyne carefully construct his words as well that the structures of the page (of the blog) which includes images and YouTube videos as I have mentioned earlier.

On the other hand, though I have stated that Heyne’s style of language can be convenient, however he also include some vulgar words in his writings. Even if it is not as often, it still can be a bother, if not offensive, to some of his audience.

I think this can be a good thing for those who finds that their life is in the slumps, or even to some who wanted to improve their life. Those that visits Milk The Pigeon can expect a warm welcome from the community and Heyne himself. I hope that the blog remains active for the future generations seeking help.

Live life boldly.
