Some Thoughts with a Glimpse at Crete, Greece [photo + poem + quote]

There are some days when sadness pays you a visit, unexpectedly, uninvited.

Those days it can be hard to find inside of you the rays of happiness;

So you struggle and you cannot smile and you feel empty deep inside.

But it is that moment that you must stand up;

It is that moment that you should rise from your ash;

It is that moment that you should rise up;

Get up and smile; smile to you.

It all starts from you;

Be the wind and let yourself blow the shadows away.

Be the sun and push those clouds away.

Be yourself and smile all the way.

Rise up and lead your journey.

“The Sun will rise and set regardless. What we choose to do with the light while it's here is up to us. Journey wisely.”
