time has come













the view behind me
was tangled and closed.

clear water and skies ahead!

blue













i've been feeling blue.
waiting for things to happen
is never good.
i hope things happen soon,
whatever they are.
i need change.

the hard step













i know it is the first step
that will lead me to freedom,
to better places, to peace.

why is it so hard?
what am i afraid of?
what is taking me so long?

time is coming















if i keep looking back,
i'll never see what's ahead of me.

let the healing start.
for good.

something about the water













the gentle crashing of little waves
the sight of sailboats in the distance
the smell of algae and salt
the never-ending train of thoughts.

being by the water calms me
but at the same time
makes me think
of things that could have been.

vertiginous fall













down, down, down i go....
again?
i thought i was only going up now.
ha! life throwing curveballs, huh?
come on, i can do it.
pull out again.
it was hard before,
but i did it.
it won't be harder now.
the same stairs that bring you down
will take you all the way up.

bye bye godmother















you may not have been a fairy,
but you certainly
made my life extraordinary.

what do you see?













the big open space,
full of opportunities?

or the small pieces around the edges
giving you some sense of grounding?

i know what i see.
and i am going for it!

don't lose the meaning












sometimes life is so fast
you lose the details.
but the essence is there:
the moments,
the people,
the feelings,
the meaning.

never forget that.
everything has a reason,
including yourself.

i love you















can love happen fast?
can it disappear just as fast?
do you believe in love at first sight?
how about at second sight?

what makes people connect,
what makes them think they are soulmates,
what makes one of them scared,
what makes one of them hurt?

and why?

i don't think i will ever understand.
but i truly believe in love.
i am just sorry that
so many people are afraid to love.

what would you do...











if your best friend
had a life threatening condition
and needed you?

would you leave everything
to be with her?

being there took away any doubts i had
that she would be ok,
and helped me find my own peace,
serenity, lightness of being.

uncertainty

my life has been guided by uncertainty lately.

what better way to deal with it,
than to create a blog?

the premise of this space will be such
that even though uncertainty is all around
one can come up with certain
truths
beliefs
words.

welcome!
i hope you enjoy the trip with me.
