"Kindness Resides In Everyone's Hearts "

“Às vezes ter amigos especiais podem ser difícil. Às vezes você vai sofrer por seus amigos. A vida nem sempre é fácil, e as pessoas podem ser cruéis.”

Beleza Perdida

sweet daily rituals for a calm life 🕊️

+ morning coffee or tea ritual: start your day with a carefully prepared cup of coffee or tea, and if you can, enjoy it slowly somewhere cosy, with a book or soft music in the background.

+ journalling ritual: whether it's morning pages or an end-of-day debrief, consider free-flow journalling to unclog your thoughts, face any problems, and deal with your emotions.

+ skincare ritual: develop a luxurious skincare routine, slowing down to pay real attention and care to your body. consider adding in lymphatic massage, too.

+ mindful cooking: allow cooking to be a meditative process, taking time to choose fresh, seasonal ingredients, explore new recipes, and enjoy the hands-on experience of being in the kitchen. set the table with care, even for simple meals, using beautiful dishes and linens.

+ midday break: decompress and take a quiet break in the middle of the day, perhaps with a short walk through a nearby park or a few minutes of journaling. pause and reflect on how you are feeling and how you want to feel for the rest of the day.

+ afternoon tea or snack: enjoy a piece of dark chocolate, some fresh fruit, delicious cheese, or a small pastry, served on a delicate tray or vintage plate, for a moment of indulgence.

+ evening wind-down: in the evening, unwind with a bath or hot shower, surrounded by soft candlelight and soothing music, followed by changing into comfortable, elegant loungewear or pyjamas. this could be a time for reading, listening to music, spending time with your partner, or enjoying a classic film.

+ home care: pay daily attention to your living space and cultivate a serene and inviting atmosphere by tidying up, clearing away clutter, arranging fresh flowers, and lighting a candle or two.

+ gratitude practice: take a few moments for reflection and gratitude, appreciating the small, beautiful moments that made your day special.

Existem pessoas que, por si só, já são poesia.

A SOMBRA SOU EU                                                  A minha sombra sou eu, ela não me segue, eu estou na minha sombra e não vou em mim. Sombra de mim que recebo luz, sombra atrelada ao que eu nasci, distância imutável de minha sombra a mim, toco-me e não me atinjo, só sei dó que seria se de minha sombra chegasse a mim. Passa-se tudo em seguir-me e finjo que sou eu que sigo, finjo que sou eu que vou e que não me persigo. Faço por confundir a minha sombra comigo: estou sempre às portas da vida, sempre lá, sempre às portas de mim!
