Há esplendor em tudo. Eu vi isso. Agora vejo mais com a idade. Existe esplendor. E não tenho medo. Com o passar dos anos, os olhos se abrem para a beleza que sempre esteve presente, mas que antes passava despercebida. Cada detalhe, cada momento, carrega consigo uma centelha de maravilha. A vida, em sua complexidade e simplicidade, revela-se em cores mais vibrantes e nuances mais profundas. O esplendor está nas pequenas coisas: no sorriso de uma criança, no brilho das estrelas, no som suave do vento entre as árvores. Está na quietude de uma manhã tranquila e na agitação de … Continue reading Esplendor

If we were taught to use affectionate words from childhood, we would understand their profound power, both in hearing and speaking them. Imagine a world where kind words are the norm, where each utterance carries the weight of love and compassion. Such words have the power to heal, to uplift, and to connect us on the deepest levels. They can transform a simple conversation into a meaningful exchange, leaving lasting imprints on our hearts. When we speak with affection, we not only brighten the lives of others, but we also enrich our own souls. In this way, the simple act … Continue reading Kindness

Time has passed, and I have pondered us at different hours and through various flavors. Despite the inclinations to hold grudges or to forget them, the conclusion is that our imbalance is a ruin where our truths hide and love conceals itself. Picture it: a solitary life with our dog and a small garden in the backyard, tended with our own hands. Psychopaths had dogs, dictators were vegans, and devout Christians. This, therefore, doesn’t say much about you, me, or them. But your solitude with rue plants in the yard—yes, this is the limbo where our emptiness revels. Our bitterness … Continue reading Sugar & Gratitude

To love in this manner is to embrace a profound and selfless form of affection. It is to offer a sanctuary where the person you love can breathe, where their soul can expand without constraint.

In this love, there is no room for jealousy or control, for true love thrives in freedom. It is a gentle whisper that says, “I trust you,” and a soft touch that reassures, “I am here for you.” It … Continue reading “You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.” — Thich Nhat Hanh

There is no hope in violence, no light in the darkness it brings. For every act of aggression, a thousand more will spring. The bloodshed of innocents, the tears of the broken-hearted, the pain of those left behind, all of it is senseless and uncharted. There is no hope in war, no victory in the battles we wage. For every life lost, a thousand more will be taken into rage. The destruction of cities, the desolation of homes, the fear of those who survive, all of it is a tragedy known, studied and articulated. In the killing of children, in … Continue reading Just love is the answer …

It’s about the weight of insignificance, the feeling of being a mere speck in the grand scheme of things. It’s about the journey, the tracks stretching into the distance, leading to an uncertain destination that we call home. It’s about fading away, blurring into the background, leaving behind a hollow space that once held laughter and warmth. It’s about the longing for light and love, the desperate gasp for air in a world that feels suffocating. It’s about the struggle to hold onto words, to poetry, to meaning, as they slip through our fingers like sand. It’s about the ache … Continue reading Cozy home …

Generosity, like a river that flows endlessly, sustains the love that blossoms between two souls.

And in the quiet moments, when the world fades away and all that remains is the gaze of adoration, it is the deep feeling of admiration that ignites the flame of love. It is the recognition of each other’s … Continue reading What keeps two people in love and in a long relationship?

It’s the steady hand that guides you through both the bright days and the dark nights, a constant source of support and understanding. Love is versatile, taking on different forms and shapes, yet always remaining … Continue reading Some days …
