“Must is different.
Must is who we are, what we believe, and what we do when we are alone with our truest, most authentic self. It’s that which calls to us most deeply. It’s our convictions, our passions, our deepest held urges and desires - unavoidable, undeniable and inexplicable. Unlike “should”, “must” doesn’t accept compromises.
Must is when we stop conforming to other people’s ideals and connecting to our own - and this allows us to cultivate our potential as individuals. To choose must is to yes to hard work and constant effort, to say yes to a journey without a road map or guarantees, and in so doing, to say yes to what Joseph Campbell called “the experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive””

And so, after many months of silence, there is a feeling of “must” to post something here again. Something small, something light - but something.
“I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.”

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did so. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover”

This week I unexpectedly found tulips at a local grocery store. Beautiful and colourful tulips. Of course, as you can imagine I went slightly overboard and now have tulips on my desk at the office and also a bunch at home. They just make me smile.
Have a lovely weekend. May it be filled with flowers and laughter.

“I have never considered Roses Costes as an ordinary boutique. I prefer to define it as a treasure chest, a box where dreams can be touched and chosen.”

Back on the island and ready to get started again - work, blog and cook. The trip was absolutely incredible. We discovered cities, both modern and ancient, we explored ruins and boutiques and we traveled on mules, scooters, trains, golf carts and gondolas. Though we would have loved to stay in Venice just a couple of weeks longer (one can dream), we are also happy to be back in our home.
Have a great weekend. xx Pris
Photo taken at Ephesus near Kusadasi in Turkey. Once an impressive Roman city. Now a splendid place to visit. Photo taken with my iPhone5, edited with the Camera+ app. Check out Eef Ouwehand's website for more tips on taking pictures with your smartphone while on vacation.
