Just a moment

Amazing how a small, random moment can change your life. Some people would call it fate, others serendipity or luck… in either case, our lives become the way they are by these little accidental situations that lead us to meet someone, connect with someone, find the courage to make a decision, to say a word … Continue reading »

Hey you! Yes, you… I love you, my friend!

I have just finished chatting with a friend. It was one of these conversations full of news, even though we haven’t really lost contact, just that a lot of things happened in a very short time. As we caught up with all the news (and all good ones, yay!) I found myself sometimes laughing, other … Continue reading »

Sensuality in the museum. A reconnection with the nature.

There was an almost surreal atmosphere in the room. Penumbra with some spotlights. Dark red walls held the scattered paintings. Vague lines and furious brush strokes. Warm, earthy colors in each illustration. A combination of oneiric and earthy. Illusion and mundane. The carnal naturalness of those women’s naked bodies, their curves, the expression in their eyes, offering … Continue reading »

Happy first anniversary!

One year together, you and me. When I first started writing this blog I hadn’t a clear purpose.

Those days

However I started looking some pictures while listening to some music when I stumble upon one specific picture at the same time that the first notes of The River Flows in You from Yiruma started. My stomach turned and shrank and … Continue reading »

Alive and kicking

I’ve got a crush. Yep, I have all the symptoms. I have butterflies in my stomach again. It takes me ages to fall sleep when I give free rein to my mind, so I wake up in the morning with this stupid smile on my face and the black rings under my eyes, just the same … Continue reading »

Of love, art and dreams coming true (I)

Today I had one of those moments. I cried of joy while I was holding a wide smile on my face. When I was 17 years old I fell in love with an image. It was a picture inside my History of Art book from 3rd year of high school, part of the “Byzantin Art” … Continue reading »

The turning point

This is the first post, the scary one, the one that should explain everything. I better start explaining then. Who is writing? I’m María, a Spanish teacher passionate about my profession, which makes me feel really lucky. I consider myself quite a happy person, positive  and who enjoys the pleasures in life. But not always … Continue reading »
