Hello my wonderful readers ♥♥ I'm here today for 2 reasons. First of all, it's time for my usual 'quote of the week'. I hope you enjoy this quote, as always it reflects my current mood or/and witty words that deserve to be shared with you. I'm currently moving out to a new city and a new flat. I'm bit stressed out. This whole thing is a bit scary. I didn't plan it to happen but well, here we are! So anyway, this is what you missed and why I have not being blogging a lot lately. Thanks again for caring and being so amazing ♥ You're great and one of a kind. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I love everyone of you. Take care and I'll see you soon x
PS: the picture is mine. It's my parents' little dog. He is an hyperactive and sensitive puppy! Isn't he cute?
“ Letting there be room for not knowing is the most important thing of all. When there's a big disappointment, we don't know if that's the end of the story. It may just be the beginning of a great adventure. Life is like that. We don't know anything. We call something bad; we call it good. But really we just don't know. ”

" Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday. "
― Wilma Rudolph
“ You can go through life and make new friends every year - every month practically - but there was never any substitute for those friendships of childhood that survive into adult years. Those are the ones in which we are bound to one another with hoops of steel. ”
― Alexander McCall Smith, The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency.
“ Is it possible, in the final analysis, for one human being to achieve perfect understanding of another?
We can invest enormous time and energy in serious efforts to know another person, but in the end, how close can we come to that person's essence? We convince ourselves that we know the other person well, but do we really know anything important about anyone? ”
― Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.
We are the girls with anxiety disorders, filled appointment books, five-year plans. We take ourselves very, very seriously. We are the peacemakers, the do-gooders, the givers, the savers. We are on time, overly prepared, well read, and witty, intellectually curious, always moving. We pride ourselves on getting as little sleep as possible and thrive on self-deprivation.
Seeing people change is not what hurts ;
what hurts is remembering how they used to be.

So yes, lately I've been fighting this huge feeling in my guts. Awful and sad feeling that I could not shut off. The one that kept warning me that things will never be the same. Everything is changing in my life right now. A lot is going on at the same time and it's hard for me to deal with it. I've so many things to deal with. I've been very focused and reflecting a lot on life and everyone that is in my life right now. I can't help but notice that a lot has changed. I've changed. They have changed. And somehow we are not the same and we've drifted away. I don't enjoy all the things I did. I've grown bitter lately. I know that I shouldn't. I'm lucky. Luckier than most people. I have a part-time job, my studies, a family and a home. I kind of lost my good spirit during this holiday season. The Christmas break is always a tough one for me. But I'm working on getting my spirit back. Getting everything back on track. So I'll see you soon, okay ? Don't give up on me just yet.
Change can be good they say. They also say that not everyone is meant to stay in your life. I guess they're right. It's just hard to accept. To let go is not as easy as it sounds. Especially when you've so many good memories with a person. I've learnt that good decisions are never the easiest. So no matter how much it hurts I will do what I have to do.

« Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. »
I sincerely think it makes a difference. And you can make a difference in someone's life. A small gesture can change a mood so easily. I've seen it. I have felt it. And I'm sure you did too. So what are you waiting for ? Go on and go change the world.
A little step... Toward greatness comes from the heart.
I don't know about you but I love a good friendship story. I'm not too keen on love stories but friendship stories ARE MY GREAT WEAKNESS. Sure, I can do with a little romance in the book department. But, well, I'm more into great friendships.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

I feel like in this world there is too much negativity. I feel like the world will tell you all the things you did wrong. It will remind you of how much you've lost. It will never tell you how good you've been, how much you've changed and how important you're.
So I want to let you know that YOU ARE IMPORTANT for me. YOU MATTER TO ME.
