The afternoon tea

Happy Sunday my darlings,

Don't you just love those laid back weekend afternoons where you have absolutely nothing to worry about? Especially after a long and hard week, I believe I'm not the only one who takes a book in my hand and takes time to just sit there, enjoy every page of a new book from the library. Suddenly, you start to feel like the girl from a perfect picture: your hair is up in a messy bun, you have a pair of glasses on and a book in your hands while it's raining outside. Later on, you put the book away, stand up, go and look outside the window. No thinking. Just staring at the window while the rain drops fall heavily. It's the kind of weather that locks you up in the house without any intention of going out and socialising with the world. 

Lately, I've been enjoying my company more than I was before. It's that time of my life where I can be on my own without feeling lonely and unwanted. A lot of people these days seem to be afraid of the word "loneliness" and it's starting to get sad. They will do anything in their power not to be alone. They'll go out and be with a bunch of random people they don't know or they'll meet up with the fake friends, you know, the kind that remembers you only on your good days. It almost sounds as if they're running from someone. They are running from themselves.

We should all embrace the self-being afternoons or any other time of the day and really start taking the time on ourselves for a moment without being called selfish..
