Some reminders for being Single.
Now, what I am about to type further down this post, I have given it quite some thought! Experience has helped me too, over the last few years. This year's Holidays are different.

Parents.
The parents. The seniors. We love them and we hate them and we could't live without them. They deserve their own little post in this blog, it was about time I did it.

While dating myself.
For the greater part of 2019-2020, I have been single. Generally, I have been very bad at remaining unattached. Especially in the romantic way. At the beginning, I thought it was because I enjoyed being with someone, being part of a team.

🍁 Hello Autumn 🍁
Just like people, seasons come and go. They are the narratives of life. People do not always come back, but season do. They come back with the same beginning, promises and metaphors. They come back parallelling our nature. September arrived and along it brought its winds and rainy. One day, I knew it was summer… Continue reading 🍁 Hello Autumn 🍁
Little things that are worth enjoying.
Kisses. It doesn't matter if they are first or not (although the first ones are always the best!).The sound of rain against your window. Hugs. The wind against you while driving. Rereading favorite books. Full moons. Jumping into a pool or diving into the sea on a hot summer's day. Animals. Seeing a rainbow. That… Continue reading Little things that are worth enjoying.
