Joy is not because of doing certain things, it’s because of the way you choose to do them. Do you hear the owl sing at night? Do you listen to the water while you take a shower? Do you enjoy the smell of fire burning in the fireplace? Something won’t make you happy if you…
Lost in a spiral of words, sentences splashed together and stories in despair. No beginning. No ending. Just words, ideas and feelings lingering around, waiting to set foot on paper or take part in the endless love affair of life. From nothing to something. From thin air into reality.
