And so I try to be kind

To everything I see

And in everything I see

I see him.

She wanted to escape, to run farther and farther away, to break violently with her everyday life, to finally be able to breathe.

Small things we should cherish more in life:

Staring at the moon from your balcony.

Waking up to the sound of the rain.

Small achievements/success in your life.

Sleeping in a cozy or comfortable bed.

Walking barefoot on grass.

The first sip of coffee/tea/juice in the morning.

Different colors of sky.

Finishing a good book.

Counting stars with the person you love.

Sharing fruits with your friends/family.
