A Reminder to Dream

post-thumb

In the face of the adversities that life brings us, do not curse your beliefs. Don’t waste your time asking the deities what you did, don’t throw your dreams to be burned in the sun.

The rusty bars of the system were painted with the color of fear and isolated your soul so that you could no longer hear it, until the day of your death.

The horizon line fills the hearts of fools with hope. The fear of following their own dreams fills them with impure thoughts and acts of frustration.

Unable to achieve their dreams, they turn their backs on them in an act of mental masturbation.

And they end up, immaterial, dead in a material world without purpose.

She believes literature is the only place where truth doesn't need permission. Her texts are born from the certainty that every story told with courage is an act of freedom; for whoever writes and whoever reads.
