remember
Remember - the Universe gave up celestial pieces of itself to craft you.
So much had to conspire in order for you the be here.
So be here.
Be here, and be exactly who you want to be.
Create the art you want to create.
Speak your heart into existence.
Bloom where you are planted.
Dig and dig and dig into the core of your passion,
and hold on to whatever ignites something inside of you,
hold on to whatever stirs your soul.
Get to know yourself, and own it;
never apologize for the way your heart beats against your chest or why.
Never apologize for taking up space.
Just be here.
Just be here and remember -
you were bred from the crashing and folding of the universe into itself.
Life may be messy, but you’re born from a chaos that existed between stars.
The same energy flows through you.
Turn it into art.
Turn it into strength.
Turn it into beauty,
like it turned itself into you.
~ Bianca Sparacino
the beauty of a woman
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.

your inner beauty
If only I could turn you inside out...
And see the world that lives inside you...
I bet there's children that play tag near a rainbow that falls from your heart...
And a fountain that sprays stars from its spout...
I bet there's graffiti that says LOVE all over the walls...
No profanity or words that will put me back on a trail to nowhere...
But, LOVE, we don't have to find out...
Let's imagine it as a city that keeps peace on a pedestal...
Where the government is ruled by a heart...
Where the clouds always drift slowly to cover up a hot day...
Where the rain is never frowned upon, but skipped through joyfully...
LOVE...
I can't put this into anything more than a childish dream...
So I'll say this:
You're beautiful on the outside...
No doubt about that...
But when it comes to where the heart work its magic...
That beauty will always come before the other...
So when I gaze into your eyes...
Just know I look inside...
To that world that keeps me smiling endlessly...
