“Here is a poem about being twenty-something: Like a filly breaking free from its stables. Ripping away from its harness and cables. Unaware of the fence it's been boxed into. Unaware of the danger that lies beyond everything it knew. Do not look back filly. Do not look back. Race on into that morning dawn. That blistering sun. That autumn fawn because when reality strikes all will be gone.”

“Em sentia bella i poderosa, més que mai. Però, per alguna raó, tenia menys control sobre la meva bellesa que mai, necessitava tots aquells retocs, més que mai, necessitava agradar-li a aquell home, més que mai. I tot això, per què?

“The day I start revealing your truth, you will have nowhere to go. Because deep down, you know what you have done, how you twisted things, how you made me look wrong just to save your image. And I still kept trying to convince you that we should clear the misunderstanding, not because I was weak, but because I thought you had some grace and some respect for what we had. But now I am not going to consider anything, now if I decide to speak, the truth will be louder than all the lies ever told. And that day, your mask will fall, and your ugly reality will be known to everyone.”

“The journey toward self-love can be challenging, especially in a world that often imposes unrealistic standards and expectations. However, this inner journey is essential for a full and fulfilling life. It may involve self-reflection, meditation, therapy, and the daily practice of self-compassion. The aim is to reach a state where self-love is not conditioned by external successes or validation from others, but is a constant presence guiding our thoughts and actions.”
