J'aime parce que je dois

Probably the only aspects of our beings left pure are the friends we have not met and the relationships we are yet to cultivate.

Through life’s alleyways, over its crags, across its valleys, its oceans, deserts and steppes we experience all sorts. We encounter false friends. We begin disastrous relationships. Some of us are damaged emotionally, some both emotionally and physically.
All the same, we trudge on, we continue. We live because that is the only currency life understands. Continuity, regardless.


In all of this love when discovered renews the soul and gives life a completely new meaning, when it comes it comes, causing a seismic shift to your very existence. Surely, there is more to it than a palpating heart.

I must embrace it with an open mind and all that is left of my heart, cos that is all it needs to survive.
