A Promised Note

Here is little something I promised to somebody.

Not so long time ago I was in Italy.
Wait... I know Italy is like - smell of pizza and pasta, loud people constantly smiling and yelling "CIAO"...
Yes it is, but not only.
Wait. My little Italy, the one I met ten years ago for the first time, can actually be a very cozy and calming place. This second Italy has amazing natural smells of tall green trees, of whispering grass under your feet, of lovely birds constantly telling you their little stories, of butterflies, serenity and kindness.

A beam of sunshine coming to my balcony every morning was my blessing that time. I greeted it every single day and say good bye to it in the evenings. The simplicity of existance, that consists of silence, light and wind, tasty simple food and soft water, simple talks and laughs is something that I long for. This kind of simplicity brings you right back to yourself. It offers you the gift we all have - the ability to hear your heart, right there, in your chest. You just wake up, breath, smile and feel again - you are alive.
Isn't it an everyday miracle? Isn't it a marvelous gift we all have since the day one on this Earth? We should be thankful for that every moment of our life. I can't get enough of it, of this beauty, eternal and infinite beauty.

My life now is very alive, it is vibrant, fresh, a real, real moveable fiest.
That day we just went for a walk. One of those walks where you just walk and talk and life happens right in front of you, and to you. The air comes through you, it tickles you, you laugh and you srew up your eyes because you just can't stop being so full life.

I got to see one of the nicest little towns, at the seashore, with boats and beaches, tiny cafes and bars. I tasted simple food, had talks and talks and talks, watched people passing by.. I think I could hug every one of them.

You know where your happiness is? It is with you all the time. No, honestly. Right there.
Just close your eyes, feel your body, how it is alive, feel it all... then open your eyes and there it is. Your happiness.

In the butterfly. In the ocean view. In the sand between your toes. In the wind in your hair. In the street food you take. In the small souvenirs. In that little dog. In the tiny street filled with flowers. In the sunshine. In the falling star. In the silence between two people. In the talking between two people. In the touching, in the laughing, in the eating, in the joking, in the music, in the heartbeat, in the flower pollen, in the feeling of lightness.
