How can I describe, the look in Your eyes, full of a wisdom, I do not understand.
The unpredictable life, springing from a fountain, of what seems like, an eternal youth, can only be seen, through Your eyes.
I read the words, You have written down, and try to wrap my mind, ever so carefully around it, but it feels so pointless, because I do not possess, the divine wisdom, that You have.
So, all I can do is trust You, and take Your hand, because You are the only one, who know the best steps, to get me into the promised land.

I see you, with a piece of chocolate, between your teeth, and a cup of coffee, in your hand – Confidence is knowing who you are. It is knowing, whose you are. The freedom of being, without worrying, what other people think. You are getting there. And my love, it is the most beautiful thing!

Be brave enough to love, more than you ever loved yourself. By putting someone else first you learn to forget yourself, and all the problems, you keep carrying around. It is the other at number one, that allows you to breathe, and to learn how to trust, humanity all over again, after life came crashing down. Be brave enough to love, because not everybody is the same, and the next person you meet, could feel the same way about you, putting you first in all you do. So, be brave to take that step, to give love without asking it back.

The heart that opens up, to the word around her, allowing the wind to blow, through the curtains of her window, is able to embrace love, when it presents itself at her doorstep. Full of joy she opens her arms, recognizing kindness, when it presents itself. She buys flowers, and puts them on her table, and bakes a cake to share with friends. She laughs in freedom, and speaks her mind, when someone asks her a question. Unafraid she presents herself, to a world so different than her own. She has faith in her Creator and awaits His presence full of love, and when He comes, she presents to Him the same woman, she has presented to everyone else. Her soul blooms in the knowledge, that someone loved her, before the world ever could. She does not hold on to rejection, but finds peace in her temporary solitude, relying on God to provide, new and exciting adventures for her life. When the heart opens up, trust is able to find peace, in a world so fickle in her being, because she belongs to God, who carries her in His hands, and bring her more love, than any human being ever could.

The first snowflakes fall, and my soul rises up, to become one with the sky. My arms spread wide, like the wings of angels. My joy overflows, as I put my trust in you. I rise and I fall, as I am dancing on the wind, and my heart surrenders, to the beating of your love. I wish, I understood, how the wind blows, in and out of this world. I wish, I could hold on, to each snowflake, and hold it in my hands. But only in complete surrender, can my wings find the strength, to take off and fly away. Away to a place, beyond this ice cold universe, where your arms are waiting, to welcome me home, in paradise.
