sunny monday.

Forse la sintonia, forse le risate, forse le parole. Probabilmente l’incominciare a condividere qualcosa in più, a parlare un pò di sé, a scoprire pian piano quel che il cuore cela. Imparare a volersi bene,ad accettarsi per i difetti, i pregi, per le arrabbiature e le battute. O forse accade perchè doveva accadere. Perché le anime son destinate a trovarsi, prima o poi. (Paulo Coelho, Brida)

Today's wise words

you know well, life isn't so easy (and bloggers' life too..)
but sometimes you just stop for a while, and you stumble in something like this, and it reminds you that life's hard and complicated, and you just have to keep on going, the best way you can. You can't avoid feeling pain or falling in love. You just have to live it all and see what will happen .

Swarm Dutch Duffle bags

Made from old Dutch post sacks and table rugs. And vintage scarfs as closures. Guess a perfect mix. Love these bags.
