Day 319. Keep learning


   We learn all our life: at first what we need in order to survive and then what others think it's good to know. This is how we're taught to understand life: through other people's eyes. 
   Some of us wake up in the middle of the road and start questioning everything we know. Then we decide we want more. More than society instills in us. We want to learn what We feel is right, what We need. 
   That's when the world is separated in two: the ones who follow blindly all the steps in order to be "well integrated" and the ones who are never satisfied, who want to learn more. The ones who go out and explore, who are not afraid to admit they're different. The same ones who are excited to learn even after school ends because they like what they're learning. So we keep doing it and enjoying what we do while the others keep complaining and hating life if it doesn't give them money or power. We don't need those things to be happy. Our happiness is found in the small details, in the things we love learning because they help us live beautifully not because it's mandatory. 
   Which of the two are you? It's never too late to wake up and question everything you know. Never too late to keep learning and enjoy what you're doing:)

Day 318. Bits and pieces

half yellow flower

   We aren't completely our own. They have bits and pieces of us: our friends on Facebook, our best friends, our boyfriend, our parents and our siblings, that cute girl we want to be like, our co-workers or maybe even our neighbors. 
   Even if we believe that we are all unique human beings, we are actually very much alike and the ones around us influence our life in ways we don't even acknowledge. Think about it. Every step of the way we compare ourselves to them. And it's a natural process our brain got used to. 
   We take decisions that virtually involve people around us. Even if we don't consciously know it. We just do it. Every. Single. Day. The question is... do you follow your OWN dreams in all this process or do you live THEIR life and follow THEIR dreams because you're too afraid you're going to be judged? 
   Now you know. They have bits and pieces of you. Mostly because you allow it. And you'll allow it for the rest of your life without knowing. But will you give yourself completely to them or will you save some for yourself as well?:) Food for thought:)

Day 189. You know you love

Cuddled up

   ... when in a full day you suddenly have an unexpected free hour and you choose to spend it with him.
   ... when he opens the door with a smile and says "Hey, beautiful!" 
   ... when he cooks for you and he brings your meal in the room with a smile.
   ... if you feel at home when he holds you in his arms and you realize there can't be anyone else who could make you feel more complete than him.
   ... when he gently kisses your nose and smiles proudly at you because you like the same Tv Show as him
   ... if after almost 4 years you still feel the need to tell each other "I love you" every day
   ... when after just an hour spent together you already feel 10 times better than before seeing him:)

   Today I remembered how much I love him:)
