Love

We don’t have the same way to show our feelings

Our eyes

Our hands

Our body are different

But love is unique

An energy that embrace us

Like the morning breeze

***

Voices

So many people cry for help

Cry for freedom

Cry for peace

But why we cry in our happy moments

And

Laugh…..when we are in a very difficult situations?

Maybe this is the self-defense of our organism

Still discovering the human brain

What is certain…?

It is that we have free will

***

My garden

It is life

Everything is surrounding us

Like two arms that embracing our new born

We need 4 seconds to fall in love

We need 8 years to develop our personality

And an entire life to discover

Who we are
