full of things
Nothing in the world can bring us more joy than another
person. Other souls have the ability to make us feel so
genuinely loved and adored that it leaves us vibrantly
beaming in a state of bliss. Perhaps even more delightful,
is the feeling of being so undeniably grateful for someone
else’s presence in your life that it leaves you astounded.
Words cannot describe how honoured we can feel to have
certain people in our lives.
that have never been.
To be open and share with others is an art I have learned
-Rainer how rewarding it truly
more recently than not. ButMaria Rilkeis. To
feel a deep connection to someone that means so much to
you. To feel like you know someone magical. To tell them
how much you love them. It is so crucial for us to ensure
that we surround ourselves with those who nourish and
uplift our hearts. We are here for each other. Love and
connection is a force so inherent within our souls. It is the
reason why we are here.
But also, be thankful for your solitude. The solitude that
means being alone without being lonely. The quiet time
that allows you to reflect on all that has come into your
life. To step back from those you love with the intention
of allowing yourself to fully soak in and embrace what
you have. And behold the great importance of conversing with yourself; to make sure you are still friends with
YOU. And to further allow yourself to develop your intimate relationship with your surroundings and nature.
Take a walk alone and see how many magnificent things
you notice along the way that likely, you have never seen
before.
Be so in love with other souls and solitude that you honour them both with your time.
