The storm passes

Philosophy time!

The past few days have been tough for me, for personal reasons that i am not going to explain here, as this is my blog and not my diary.

This post is for anyone who struggles with anything at the moment.

Just remember that every flower must grow trough dirt, and what doesn't kill you will make you stronger.

Sometimes we get caught in a storm, but life is not about waiting for it to pass. It is about learning how to dance in the rain. And one day, you'll eventually realize that your struggles are behind you.

A certain darkness is needed to see the stars.

Your size, your shape, your style, your look, your differences don't matter.

You are beautiful the way you are.

It is okay not to be okay. It's okay to fall down, as long as you get up afterwards.

You cannot change your past, you can either run from it, or learn from it.

No matter what you do, there will always be people to support and love you.

I made these few pictures after a few days of heavy rain here in Belgium. I am thinking of all my friends who struggle in any way at the moment, so i decided to make this little post to tell that i am thinking about them, no matter how far away they might be from me. I just randomly put some quotes that inspire me and give me strength in my bad moments, hoping it'll do the same for you.

You might feel lost at the moment but you will find your way, i promise.

Spread love, peace and magic !

Dancing in the blackness of magic all night long

Heeey!

Okay, if anybody still reads this blog... I am so, so, sorry for not posting for like... a month or so? I have just been very busy with very boring stuff and i have had a few post ideas but the weather has been terrible, i've had no time and... Okay, i'm gonna stop trying to figure out excuses. I am just terribly lazy, i think it is time to admit it to myself ! 

First of all, i've got some really big news to tell: i decided to change the font i was using because i feel like it made my posts look kinda childish? I don't know, it just looked a bit like Comic Sans, you know what i mean, right? So that's about my super exciting news.

Anyway, i've got something much more exciting to tell and show you. I went to Rock Werchter on friday (i SWEAR that next year i am going there the four days, camping and all!) and had an amazing time. Seeing both The 1975 and Crystal Fighters from the front row was such an unique experience, and definitely worth the hours i spent waiting for them. I also saw the Arctic Monkeys and Parov Stelar. Only four concerts in one day, i know, but i can tell you i was super busy the whole day, with the waiting, food & drink breaks and everything !

I even managed to take my camera to the festival area (i am such a badass, i know, i know) and take some cool pictures (a security guy saw it when i was waiting for the Crystal Fighters though and asked for my written permission for taking pics, so unfortunately, no pictures of that amazing performance).

Gosh, i must not be the only one to think Matthew Healy is smoking hot, right? 

My festival look (a random black top from New Look and this lovely trashy legging from Subdued)

Some ambiance picture and the only true love of my life: PB cup B&J's, best festival snack on such a hot day!

Chilling with da sister & the Arctic Monkeys !

Oh and, as a bonus, enjoy this picture of me after the hours of dancing, screaming, fangirling and basically just having the time of my life!

I hope you enjoyed this post and i really hope i'll get myself to post much more often during summer. 

See ya, y'all!

P.S. The title is a mix of some Crystal Fighters & Parov Stelar lyrics, clever, right?
