' Learning to be strong '

Goodnight everyone! I'm posting here a text, which I found very beautiful and decided to share with my friends and all visitors!

 'Learning to be strong'

 "After some time,
 you learn the difference, the subtle difference
 between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
 And you learn that love does not mean leaning,
 and company does not always mean security.
 And you learn that kisses are not contracts
 and presents are not promises.
 And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up
 and your eyes ahead with the grace of an adult
 and not the grief of a child.
 And you learn to build all your roads on today
 because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans,
 and the future has a habit of falling down in mid flight.
 After a while,
 you learn that even sunshine burns
 if you get too long.
 So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
 instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
 And you learn that you really can endure ...
 You really are strong and that counts ... "

 I hope you enjoyed it, kissing. Isabela Oliveira:)
