Day 233. Forest fairy

   Close your eyes and feel the forest. Smell the scent of the trees and the fresh air, hear the song of the birds and the river flowing near by. Then open them and be amazed by the variety of colors covering the ground between the trees: yellow, white and purple. Easter flowers and violets. It's like nature knows when Easter is coming and it blooms with enthusiasm. 

   Today I lived all this and I remembered how good it is to go back where I belong. I'm not a city girl, but rather a forest fairy. So I enjoyed picking up flowers for my mother's anniversary tomorrow and daydreaming my life away during that walk. 

   Forest, sweet forest:)

Day 173. Daughter of the sun

   These days I'm reading a book about the King of Summer and the Queen of Winter, a teenage fiction that makes me daydream about the beautiful summer days, the lazy afternoons and the amazing sunsets, the smell in the air after a summer rain and all the benefits of a warm season. That's why every sunny day that leaves winter behind fills me up with happiness and steals away any dark thought.

   Today the walk back home was more pleasant than ever. You don't usually notice the birds, but today they they were chirping so happily that I couldn't help myself not smile all the way. The sun made me feel more powerful than ever. That's how I realized. I am a daughter of the sun, a fairy of the King of Summer. Give me the sun and you'll make me the happiest person alive:)

Day 147. Can you feel it?

   Today one of the four sisters, Spring, revealed to me some of her blessings. She sent the sun to shine the whole day on a clear sky, birds to sing in the trees and snow to melt here and there:) It was beauuutiful:) Laying in the sun warmed you up and if you closed your eyes you could have sworn it was spring already. 

   Today I was told that I'm silly for taking photos to everything around me and not just to new cities I'm visiting and that photographers in general are rather nuts:P I can't but disagree and call myself a mere dreamer who seeks reasons of happiness everywhere around me. Wouldn't you if you wanted to be happy? Would you rather wait for the big things in your life to let yourself smile? I know I wouldn't:)

Day 124. New beginnings

   I used to be afraid of new beginnings because I was accustomed to what I previously had and I hardly wanted to let go. But not anymore. Now I'm confident that I can (partly) control the doors I'm opening because I know who I am and what I can do. I trust myself and I know I'm free to close the doors to the rooms I don't fancy and open some new ones. 

   Birds are always on the run. They always travel and maybe they even go to new places from time to time but they're never afraid. They know that somehow they will find food and shelter. They trust their skills and we should trust our skills too. Life will be so much easier this way:)
