Il miglior momento della giornata? Sarò scontata, la mattina presto. Poter godere di un terrazzo, in mezzo al canto degli uccelli e al lento sorgere del sole, è semplicemente un piacere indescrivibile. Basta solo riuscire ad apprezzarlo ed esserne grati. Per farla breve, le mie mattinate questi giorni si riassumono in un po' di stretching, con dell'acqua termale Avène sul viso, un caffé sulla sdraio e via con le incombenze giornaliere, che oltre al lavoro comprendono anche qualche compera per abbellire la casa e renderla un po' più comoda. Le ultime due entry sono due spiaggine blu, comodissime, estremamente convenienti, e che da sole, aggiungono un tocco marino al mio outdoor che in questi giorni diventa il nostro secondo habitat e dove ultimamente sto organizzando diverse cene all'aperto. Vi lascio con questo bel verso di Shelley "Se arriva l'inverno, come può la primavera essere lontana?". Ed è proprio questo che dovremmo pensare. Arriverà la primavera, con un po' di prudenza e attenzione verso noi stessi e gli altri, saremo di nuovo in grado di vivere come una volta, ma con maggiore consapevolezza del bello che ci circonda e di coloro che amiamo.
Which is the best moment of the day? Early mornings, definitely. The silence surrounding me, the gentl and slow awakening of the city, distant bird chirping, the pale sun getting higher and brighter and the list of the beautiful things would be endless, if we just could see them and be grateful and appreciative of every beautiful thing. I do some stretching, lay down on my gym carpet and try to get some tan spraying on my face some Avène Thermal Water (the early rays are the best) and make the most of those precious moments of the day. Having a terrace and no indiscreet glances, doing all that doesn't cost me anything. Right now I am writing this post on my balcony and I just can't describe the beauty of being here and sharing this with you. The blog has been a little bit mute lately, due to this incredibly hard times we have all been through. But to say it with Shelley : "If winter comes, can Spring be far behing?"
With this beautiful warm season of the year, everything looks better. We all have been struggling to make the greatest effort of our lives, locked down in hour houses and apartments. And now we are like those animals in cages running away at the very first hint of liberty. I can understand that, but what we need to be guided by, without having to repeat our past struggles, is caution.
In this time of the year I am trying to decorate my balcony and two new entries have made the difference. I just bought two blue beach chairs and having not planned any holidays yet, I feel I am breathing the fresh air of a beach. Give a look at these chair on my instagram account, which by the way, I finally made up my mind to open during our long quarantine period. Lately, I have had friends over for dinner on the balcony. The redecoration of it was more than urgent..... So here we are with the first rehaul. Last but not least, summer makes me love colors.
I leave you with this random thought of mine and been also thinking of all the time. We will be safe and free from this tremendous virus when we will be free to flirt again. Taking physical distances from people, hiding behind our masks is not normal, but that doesn't prevent us from being seductive and interesting through eye contact. Anyway, here is a selection of beautiful things. Have a great day!
