The importance of knowing that we know where broken hearts go.
Perhaps even that place in our heart.
An emptiness to fill.
To heal and make it beat again.
For us to return to the part of where love can actually happen.
The Love Journey of Lakshmi
The importance of knowing that we know where broken hearts go.
Perhaps even that place in our heart.
An emptiness to fill.
To heal and make it beat again.
For us to return to the part of where love can actually happen.
Already when I was 5 years old I said : ‘He is just not into you’.
Before there was ever a movie made with this title, or pronounced in Sex and in the City by Miranda.
One of the characters in the series.
Or actually I said. ‘He just likes her better’.
And to be real, I said it in Dutch.
‘Hij vind haar gewoon leuker’.
Something I told my best friend then.
“You are not your feelings, watch them with curiosity”
I see it as a piece of myself, as a human being.
You can even put it together as a part of me being a woman.
But as fragile and sensitive as that is.
It is not something that is locked or as the advertisements mention it as something to be unlocking.
Because it is not a lack, but an abundance that is residing in me.
The love for a city is something I am talking about in my story “Lisbon Love”.
A marketing trick or just something how it is?
I don’t know.
But what I do know, is that all involves a relation.
Not just with people or animals.
Perhaps even to have a relationship with a city.
It could be.
A light in the darkness, where I can not hide.
Lifting me up, where I can not do it myself.
Positivity where I feel energized.
Or can charge.
A place where we can meet in space and time.
In quantity and quality.
A hug, or just a kiss on the cheek.
Understanding when I am weak.
Learning and growing from each other.
Even when we don’t know how to do that.
To not go over each other boundaries.
Or at least listening to what the other has to say about it.
I guess you can call it emotional support.
To be the other side of the half.
Giving space to be.
Not letting me wait in the rain.
Opening the door, so I can go in.
Perhaps even a baby
One day
In my perception it was a long time ago.
However it wasn’t.
It is still a little bit of a dark place in myself.
And that is why I am feeling it like that.
That I am in tune with myself.
I think that is something I can confirm.
If it makes me a better person, I don’t know.
But I am happy that I have come to this kind of place, that I can share it with you.
I wasn’t even offended that he said that.
It felt more like a compliment.
I was watching ‘The Crown’.
There were new episodes and it was being promoted on social media for people to watch.
I am not going to name the broadcaster of that show, as I think we all know who that is.
I had ended or paused my account for some time.
I wasn’t watching anything at that moment and to me the options there were then, were too limited.
A cut in my expenses.
Not necessary, but just that it wasn’t worth paying for.
For the simple fact, I wasn’t watching anything.
Why pay for something I am not using?
It is becoming more apparent that people really have no clue what they are talking about.
At least when it comes to love.
Let me say it like this.
And it really has nothing to do with age.
As a matter of fact.
Because I hear them old ladies and youngster say exactly the same thing.
There is also no difference when it comes to race or sexe.
Boys struggle with the same issues as girls.
And when it comes to love, it doesn’t matter what you look like.
