There is always this silence at the end of the days...

Make these days last forever!!

lets keep it here and let it yell louder, then this cold silence!!!!
This day is for you little girl... make it last!

Jumping!! Jumping!! Jumping!!

...so high! 


There are the ones that fly, and the ones that jump! 
Either way, in the middle they always find themselves, in that space in air 
where they both have their feet of the ground!

So don't worry to much if you just jump... don't over think it, if you are a flyer!
We always find ourselves in that gap in space... between the clouds and the ground!



Jump high... fly low...
in between 
let's stop for a coffee :)


Sometimes people makes you
jump real high!


Don't make detours

There is always a place where it all begins...

and then you realize that, there it is...that place where all begins..

Time to start climbing

Just arriving...

to the end of an year and the beginning of another...

This sweet expectations...
This crazy rituals...
This clock that we constantly look... expecting to move forward,
and expecting that this slow moves of the minutes passing
will bring us new adventures, new expectations, new big dreams, more happy smiles...

So lets cross this invisible time wall that keeps apart the new from the old...
Do it with a heart full of dreams and with a smile on your lips... 




...
tic tac
tic tac
...
time runs fast 
little girl
...
and in between these days that are ending
and these dreams that are starting...
just set up your clock... and...
tic tac
tic tac
....

oh... so fast!

tell me where can I find it?
...

I'll find you there
...


Waiting with all your swetness...
and some pumpkin bread

Inside a caramel circle


there is a sweet silence...

Come on in, and  fall  asleep on my shoulder...
let the silence come in with you, no music today, no words, just silence...
and don't tell the others we are here, don't tell anyone about this place....
shhhhh... let everything outside, because there is nothing else that we need here...




...it feels so good...
this silence of the minutes 
slowly sliding between us... 



... it feels so good
to see the time
in slow motion...
