The (beauty of) travel
Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.
– Anthony Bourdain
Life Goals
I think the one thing we all strive for in life is, ultimately, to be content in our happiness. That can be alone or with a companion, and if both can be mastered then one has achieved most of all there is to live happily. However, the fundamental part of the equation is self love; without that the equation is incomplete and thus, so are we.
Violet
I guess I fell in love
with the art of conversation.
People watching.
Morning coffees
and late night teas.
I liked the way
his mouth curved
before he kissed me.
Maybe the way
the sun danced around
the room,
and a flurry of halos
illuminated the table tops.
Or perhaps I just fell in love
with the sensation of his lips on my ear,
his breath on my skin
as he whispered my name,
whilst I watched a pink sky
blend into
violet.
‘I Wrote This For You’
All the hardest, coldest people you meet were once as soft as water. And that’s the tragedy of living.
