Lost Sight, Found Strength

The path is so dark and dim, but Julie keeps walking. She is scared, yet her adrenaline makes her look back several times, urging her to walk faster with each step. She wonders why she can't move faster and then realizes it's just her thoughts getting wilder the longer she's on the road. She shouldn't have chosen this path—terrified and confused. She's already halfway through. It sucks. The only way is to adapt, over time. She has one more block, two more, and again she convinces herself it's just one more step to her destination. She's no longer afraid when she starts looking at the sky instead of the road. The evening feels scarier when it's right in front of our eyes, but when it's above, the stars are beautiful. The cold air on her skin feels warmer as her mind grows calmer. Gently, she realizes that she's no longer worried. In fact, she's arrived, in no time. -- I think loneliness comes from the mind. It's not about being surrounded
Do you know why it's hard to say goodbye? Because we afraid if our memories might not be able to remember them, rightly. The fact is, goodbye means good. No matter how hard.

Socks for My Feet

"Pierre, you really don't know?"
"Do you think someone like me, frankly tell you I know? Of course I knew it all along! I just..."
"Pretend not know it?"
"Yes, why, then?"
"But, if you told me from the beginning, I think it's result better."
"What better?"
"Well, like you already knew it. And, I'll just... no need ask you so many questions."
"So, Ella, you came here just to know if I knew it?"
"Oui...."
"It's on a middle of the night, your feet. You just put your bare feet into that sneakers?"
"Well, I came here with my car. I guess, I will go back to my apartment, now."
"Hmmm..."
He kneel down in front of me.
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly he took off both of his socks. Then, he forced my feet out from the shoes.

He put on my feet with his socks. Then, he put back my feet wearing the shoes. He stood up again and smiled. So bright.
"Go home and get rest. Use socks make you have great sleep."
Pierre, my boyfriend.
