Quietude is a state of calmness, a place of stillness, in which the seeds of love, joy and peace may quietly grow, flourish and blossom.

Every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and I may say innocence, with Nature herself.

It just blooms.”

How old am I ?
I don't know and it doesn't matter.
I am and will always be young enough to dare to take it all over again, when I wake up on a road that goes nowhere.
I will always be the right age to fall in love, to break up and take it from the beginning.
I will always be of the right age to live as a child, to make mistakes, to learn something new, to dream, to wish, to entertain, to change my direction of walking, to make decisions and to change my mind.
I will never be too young to have old friends and never too old to have young friends.
And I will always live the moment, as if I die tomorrow.
I will not defer to be happy and I will not defer to love.
My age ? It has no relevance !

Great words
May you find moments filled with joy today before this day is over.
A pinch of faith.
A Cup of Hope.
A soul full of courage.
The gift of health.
And a heart full of love.
Let all this be with you not only today, but throughout your life.
A beautiful start of the week, friends!
You too Eva

Wonderful
''Among all the autumn leaves I can recognize the only one that instead of falling, tried to fly... And I also know how to fall in love with it...''
Beautiful
Autumn dresses up in gold; the richest season of the soul.
