Blue Sunflower

Seven months have passed since I last mentioned sunflowers were blue. This is an unfinished argument but yesterday, there was another exchange. It brought memories and tears again, but there is a difference now, I am in control. I won't lie, it made me shake for a moment, there was a knot on my throat but hey... I will stick to it: Sunflowers are blue.

What is she talking about? I know, that is what you must be thinking. Let me tell you, I am talking about self-love, about taking responsibility for how you react to things. Life is so short and so simple, we complicate it.

January was a crucial month in my life, I was broken in small, tiny pieces. It was very difficult for me to collect the pieces and stick them with glue, but I did it. I started a new journey and life has been tasting my transformation. Yesterday, I saw a sunflower, a blue one and the whole argument came back to my mind. There are times in life when I want to explode and throw it all, but I believe I am entitled to those moments, the thing is, I now stop, breath and move on. I don't react from the ego, but from the love. There will always be three versions of a story, your version, my version and the truth. If you are not capable of seeing the truth then stick to your version, be strong about it and move on.

Today, I had a post planned about gold in jewellery, but this blog has become my way to express and shout how I am and who I am. That is why I will write the other post another time but today I am here to say, the events of yesterday won't break me again, I am loyal to my truth, even if that differs from others. It cost me to get up and move on, it cost me to start my transformation journey and although I am very grateful for the experiences and the lessons, otherwise Ara Accessories wouldn't have been here, it's time for me to accept that from my site of the story sunflowers are blue and for you, sunflowers are yellow.

So, Bonita, enhance your truth, don't expect people to treat you the way you deserve it, you're the only one capable of doing that, treat yourself with love and respect, you can decide to be happy with as little or as much as you have. The world has millions, millions of people ready to love you the way you are, to accept you as you are so why you need to wait for one, the one* who would never value you and instead will find opportunities to point at your weaknesses. You will be stick to yourself until you die, so love yourself

first, second and third, please do not wait 25 years to realise that you are beautiful the way you are, you are special and unique and nobody, nobody will love you as much as you can love yourself. Bonita Mia, whenever you doubt it, please close your eyes and think of a blue sunflower and smile, you own your truth.

P.S. I was preparing Mariana's Collection for this Autumn, I feel the correct name should now be, Blue Sunflower.

*It applies to any king of person as parner, friend, relative, etc.
