eat pray love
Just watched eat pray love. food for thought. First I will let the future unfold as it will. I'm only 20, I'm not supposed to have it all figured out. Second I will not make any decisions I am not 100 % happy with. Third I would like to get to know myself a bit better, we've become strangers lately. Fourth I will stop obsessing about how I look and dolce far niente. Fifth I will devote more time to the people I love who make me who I am. Sixth I will try and make my mind still sometimes and try to learn to meditate. Seventh I will pray more. Eight I will be polite and understanding with myself. Nine I wont forget the dreams I had a few years ago, I will go and study overseas, I will learn Italian and live in Italy and paint there for a year, I will own a flat in Oxford, I will go to art school in London, I will write for a famous magazine, I will write a novel, I will learn to sew, I will have a darkroom and make time to photograph things that bring beauty into my life, I will have a family, I will be married in Tuscany in a field of sunflowers in the late lazy afternoon sun and ride off on the back of a motorbike, I will go back to Pisa and pray by Francis Assisi's pigeons, I will have a garden full of roses and a swinging chair and a library full of the most beautiful old books that smell like home and a glass atrium outside covered in honeysuckle and a cupboard full of mismatched beautiful china tea cups like my gran's, and I will never stop creating- I will keep writing and drawing and not give up. Ten I wont actively pursue being happy, but I will treasure every moment when I am happy and be grateful for these.
