Focused life
“Without trust, love will hide behind the clouds and keep me cold, revealing itself only on clear days, too blinding for me to look at. Without fierce loyalty to my true self, my growing and always-becoming self, I will always be imprisoned by other people’s versions of…” (En savoir plus)
Decided
“It took me a hell of a journey to decide what I truly want. And it took me multiple heavens of a journey to decide that the means does not matter as long as it feels correct. As long as I don’t lose my alignment with my true self…” (En savoir plus)
Listen
“I’m listening, Paris. To the waves in your river. To the wind by the canal. To the past-midnight steps my boat shoes drag. To the growing space between the last kiss and the next. I’m listening to the silence that is trying to heal the banging noisesç…” (En savoir plus)
Light in the heat
“I’ve been feeling light and reassured – my trust in myself playing a big part, I haven’t had time to question the ideologies and if they are aligned – alright, maybe I shouldn’t trust myself that much. Is this how capitalism creeps into our lives? No…” (En savoir plus)

Balance
“In fact, I’d love to learn to drop my ego even more, if that’s possible – that’s possible, and if that means more truths will be revealed and eventually accepted. My power is in my ability to stay soft in the face of difficulties. I care more about balance…” (En savoir plus)
Rest
“I am feeling extraordinarily calm and content with my surroundings while in a distance with a place, ou bien with someone, I’m clearly in love with. No – no distance. Only space. Hence the calm and contentment. Reassurance is probably the word I was looking for, and this time it comes from within…” (En savoir plus)
Little bird

That might be the time to be even more unreasonable and make my heart so portable that it doesn’t matter where I am or whom I’m with I’ll still feel whole. Yet just…” (En savoir plus)

“…I’m still looking forward to spending time with you – your river Seine and your streets, your language and your artists, your slow change that is single-handedly capable of comforting me when capitalist propaganda nags me with ‘produce and progress’ while all I want is to walk, perhaps in peace, definitely in love…” (En savoir plus)
