Live Like This

Lightness is like a cocktail on the beach: sweet, slightly cloying, but with a view of the sunset. It seems like only yesterday I was carrying a backpack full of doubts and endless ‘what ifs,’ but today my suitcase is in the hold and all I have left in my hands is a glass of victory.

The whole vibe is about finally being able to stop pretending to be an adult, serious and ‘proper’. A little childish silliness, sun, palm trees, the feeling that all your worries were left behind at the last airport. The world suddenly became simple: rejoice, laugh, collect little ‘victories’ every day and be amazed at how far it has all taken you.

And yes, it turns out that living like this is not a temporary ‘stroke of luck’ but a new norm. Slightly carefree, slightly victorious and very contagious.
