Barbarabloom

Did you know that the name Barbara means "wanderer"? I didn’t know either until the ent I looked around and realized that this was exactly one of the pieces of what I needed to be happy! My journey ught me here, because it is important to travel not only across countries, but also through your inner world. And now lemme introduce myself: your brightest star in this milky way, that shining for you even during the day with your eyes closed… Barbara! For 19 years now it has been emitting the warmest and sometimes even hottest light, but it’s getting brighter and brighter every day! Unfortunately, it took years for this star to really shine brightly. After all, in order to burn, you need someone to feed you with this energy, isn’t it? But in my case I had to light the fire absolutely alone. I didn’t know true friendship, because my hands were biting around me when I pulled them. I didn’t know true love, because no one around me wanted it. And I never had any examples of how this should be… because my family home looked more and more like a Sub-Zero lair, I mean just cold and unwelcoming. The cold of that distant place still hs me at night, when I toss and turn and try to sleep alone again. That’s why every morning I kindle this fire in my eyes in the hope of one day waking up with it… But so far the people around me are helping me a lot! One day I realized that the world is full of "frozen" people like me. That's why every day I try to make this world a little warmer. For example, in my vase every morning there is a bouquet of fresh flowers bought from farmers. In my bedroom there are toys donated by my art students from orphanage. These toys keep me warm at night while my paintings light up their night room. One day I hope to light so many lights on this planet that I will become brighter than the Sun! Now my heart’s call has ught me to Greece, where the bright Sun shines in unison with me, and the sound of the surf wakes me up in the morning. I'm tired of communicating with the Sun… it doesn't respond, so I came here in the hope of sharing this night sky, the sound of the waves and the heady smell of freedom... Tell me where are you from? Maybe we can combine our local flavors? 😉
