(SECRET)GARDEN STATE

♫ she'll lead you down a path, there'll be tenderness in the air

she'll let you come just far enough so you know she's really there

she'll look at you and smile

and her eyes will say she's got a secret garden

where everything you want, where everything you need

will always stay a million miles away. ♫

-Secret Garden by Bruce Springsteen

So here's to us people who keep our secret gardens walled up, who'd rather maintain distance from what/who we love so as not to get hurt - I hope we find the courage to let the garden of our soul bloom in full sight. In the words of Paulo Coelho, “Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second’s encounter with God and with eternity.”
