Am I exactly what I need!?

Yesterday while I was goin’ from home to school, I saw this scarf on the sidewalk and had that catharsis moment.

As I was saying, I saw mine scarf -wich had been lost for three days- in the way, and like in a Clarice Lispector moment of knowledge I realized how I was a fool for so long.

Like, I romantized the moment that the scarf come to me would be like those silly love films, and the love of my life, or something like this, could bring me it and stuff. But clearly I was wrong. Since I was a kid I was used to do things for me, and I enjoyed this, thanks to that I’m what I am now. But it doesn’t mean I don’t feel lonely.

Look, I wrote about feeling lonely, and it was true in most parts, but there are those moments when I just sit on my own and do something by myself and it makes me feel complete. So when I saw that dark blue thing on the floor, with sand covering it, I realized that if I want some I must go after this and fight all by me. Like a unit.

I know we all need a lover and a friend (Both in one isn’t a healthy option, if you form a team with just two people -sorry), and of course I’m a person who needs a lover, but it doesn’t mean that my life will only go up if I do have a partiner. Since that moment I promised to me that I’ll be my own hero, and if at some point I’ll find someone to team up I’ll do it naturally.

So, now I’m sitting writting this and feeling powerful, and must confess that not only the Dark Blue Powerful Scarf did it to me, I saw that new Netflix Series’ GIRLBOSS, and it engaged me to free myself, too. These things “Team uped” me. Try to do this yourself. BE FREE.
