Searching, Looking, Moving

At times everything seems lost
You cannot find your way home
The streets are covered in a thick layer of darkness
No matter where you turn
The light is far away


You find no rest
You find yourself deep into a pool of sorrow
Just you and loneliness
Just you and the darkness
Without love, without hope..


You try to look strong enough
You kept your tears to yourself
You hide yourself at night and cry
You lie in bed and try to sleep


And even if you are feeling so lonely and so sad
How could you be such a fool and open up your heart?
Why would someone want to hurt you in such way?
Will things ever go back to reality?

You wonder, you hesitate...
All you need is a helping hand,
A kind heart to show you the light,
To bring back the hope,
to bring back the warmth in your heart...

A believer you must become,
An optimistic,
You must get back up,
You must take care of yourself,
You must take something,
Something that will help you move
And feel better...

A cup of tea to warm up your heart
A cup of tea to ease your soul
A cup of tea to finally rest at night
A cup of tea to dream about a better tomorrow
A cup of tea to bring yourself back to life

It's all about FOOD!

Emotions are related to what we eat, and perhaps it's such a cliché but whenever we feel down or sad the tendency is to eat something sweet whether is ice-cream or chocolate that does not matter, the explanation may go a little bit further, chocolate for example it is well-known for its anti-depressive properties, there for all we need is a boost, whenever we are blue that's all we need so that's why we find ourselves eating sweet things.

But that's not the only reason why people eat sweets, we all love food and the pleasure that goes with it.
We are always trying to get some new flavour, that's why we love foreign cultures food so much, all those aromas, all those textures, spicy touches, simple nuances of flavours which drives us crazy.
And the aroma is so important, our sense smell helps us to perceive different scents and when it comes to food is the first judge, if something doesn't smell nice you just won't try it! that simple.

Presentation is another important factor, we don't have to eat in a fancy restaurant all the time to have that neat and lovely, yet modern presentation of a dish, but if something looks too messy or just not pleasant then you will be out of that place.

And I'm pretty sure you guys are wondering : Why is she writing about this? and better yet: why is she writing about it as if she was innovating? We already know about this?, and yes of course I would not hesitate about that, but all of the things I mentioned previously have a purpose, stay with me!

Food helps us to enjoy live, to give ourselves a treat, and living in such a hectic world we deserve one, so what I'm trying to say is whenever you feel like eating don't think it through that much, sometimes we hold back because well we don't want to gain wait and we want to stay healthy, but this has gone too far, we live in a world where you must be skinny otherwise you won't fit in, and people will stare at you as if you were sick or just as a looser that can't control his/her mouth, you are considered to be ugly just because you have a little bit extra, and honestly I'm getting so upset with that, and why is that?

Well let me tell you why I'm so upset about it, I'm a girl with a bit extra let's say, and it's not like I want to promote that everybody should be fat now, but I know I'm beautiful and also all those others out there who have weight issues, or all those who love food, and all of those who just like being with a little extra. There is nothing wrong with that, that doesn't make you any less beautiful.

We should stop being slaves of capitalism, we should try to stop judging everybody out there, whether too fat, too skinny, a bit extra or whatever. We must start by stop hating ourselves, you're not alone out there, and if you ever feel like talking to someone about it, I'm not saying that I'm an expert on the subject but I will understand you!

Don't be afraid of how you look, of how much you weight, you deserve as much as everybody else to enjoy life, food and the world, enjoy yourself!

Going Back

A mixture of sensations,
an infinite number of emotions,
endless rainbows pass before my eyes,
symphonies of sounds fill up my ears,
everything is so close and yet untouchable...

Flavours I have never tasted before,
shapes I have never seen,
textures I have never touched,
people and places I have never encountered before,
everything seems so familiar and yet unknown...

All sorts of sounds and waves surrounding the Earth,
I swam deep into the ocean watching and floating,
I encounter creatures I have only imagined,
magnificent and remarkable,
superb and unimaginable,
and we managed to emerged together from the waters,
everything seems so wonderful and fantastic...

I found myself so far away from my place,
from where I am supposed to be,
from where I am supposed to belong...
I began to feel so comfortable and to forget all about my past life,
somehow I fit perfectly in this world,
somehow this is the place,
the place I was waiting for,
the place where I would feel myself,
the place where I was meant to be born

Back to the base of the world
back to the roots of my very own self
back to the beginning of life.
