A new life doesn't open as a present, with pretty ribbons and assurance of comfort, yet more as a road to adventure with a degree of fog and chill. And thus it takes the adventurous heart to grab it, the brave feet to travel it, and the bold eyes to remain open to its curves and undulations. If it were any different, the masses would not stay in such unfulfilling lives from cradle to grave. To gain more is to accept that sensation of danger and risk as one reaches for the far horizon.
When you life has been built on shifting sands, it is wise to seek a new life upon the rock.
A new life comes as sea air, rolling over buoyant waves, kissing with a coldness that brings ever more wakefulness and awareness of the moment we have arrived at.
When someone is has burned down your house, and society believes you should keep on living in the ashes as if there was still a roof, walls and doors - one must seek a new life, a new home.
Root your new life in love, root it in the soil that nurtures, and you will only ever find cool winds and rains refreshing.
In this new life I only seek the sun in the sky and the light so freely given, the days of needing support of others are over, I can well support myself and approve of my own blooms. So keep your old love letters, burn them if you wish, for this girl learned how to love herself.
