So sad, so true

In fairy tales, the princesses kiss the frogs, 

and the frogs become princes. 

In real life, the princesses kiss princes, 

and the princes turn into frogs.

~ Paulo Coelho 

keep falling ........

"I have a history of making decisions very quickly about men. 

I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. 

I have a tendency not only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of reaching his highest potential. 

I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to the relationship for a long time (sometimes far too long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own greatness. 

Many times in romance, 

I have been a victim of my own optimism." 

~ Elizabeth Gilbert 

Quote of the day

"A child can teach an adult three things: 

to be happy for no reason, 

to always be busy with something, 

and to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires."

(Paulo Coelho)

Breathing is easy

I went through a slightly pessimistic stage, (argh argh argh)
but got tired of just standing on the platform of life,
watching everybody and everything pass me by.
I am finally realizing that when we are broken, 
our sharp edges cut the others,
and letting our emotions run our behavior 
without applying any sound reasoning is not an approach
 that typically gets good results.

I need to remind myself that the world is full of beautiful things and
interesting conversational topics dying to be discussed.
I am much stronger than depression.
I am not afraid to sleep now.

Everything is somehow a bit better. ..... or so it seems.

Today, I'm grateful for:

* Being alive.

* The most amazing person that my father is. 

* Light, because it allows me to see colors!

* The woodpecker outside my window that wakes me up every single day.

* My homemade gnocchi. - Cause nothing beats homemade!

* Having my sisters as my best friends. 

* The free hugs from everyone.
* Adrenaline rushes.
* Believing myself.
* The full moon!
* Architecture and Interior Design.
* Fashion.
* Songs that bring back good memories.
* Books!!!!!!

* The Boca Lake boating experience.
* Kind strangers.

* My bosses's compliments. 

* The man with the beautiful smile, who keeps trying to make me smile.

* Talking to my hero (mom) on the phone for many hours.

* The Italians, for their pasta!
* Water.
* Hippopotamuses. (I find them adorable)
* Candles!!!

* H. O. L. I. D. A. Y. S.
* Paulo Coelho and ALL of his books.
* The 4 seasons.
* Paris.
* Coffee.
* High heels.
* Mother nature.
* People who understand me without me having to explain anything.
* Jesus Christ.
* The pouring tropical storms. 

* Being home alone. 

* Being home with my good friends.


And this is not the end.

Quote of the day

Monsters are real.

Ghosts are real too.

They live inside of us, and sometimes, they win.

Stephen King

Cause I have been tired. And uninspired.

I'm sorry I've been an absent blogger.

I really need a break, and to be very honest;
words just don't come as easily anymore.
(and when they do, it's never at the right time)

I'm losing the hold on everything that I am.

Depression and Loneliness have shown up again,
and at this particular time, I’m scared that they will never leave.
That weird sense of not belonging anywhere.. all over again.

Good memories are becoming less important,
and everything is just plain fuzzy and blurry.
When it comes to love; emptiness.
(I am way too traumatized to trust anyone)

I should hopefully be coming back with full power in the near future.
