Mennah al Refaey

“In the arms of a meaningful thing, you find your true warmth, this kind works just like a compass, it tells you where to go and where not to, when to run and when to stay, when to lean in closer and when to get as far away as you can, this kind of warmth it tells you you're safe. look for it in your favorite things, look for it in the feeling you get when you enter home, when you smell your favorite lilac flower, the one you breathe in when you see a blue sky after a rainy day, the kind of warmth you get only from your own safety blanket, the kind you get from your own self. So if you are not, if you are cold, if you are not feeling safe enough, you are on the wrong side, you are heading the wrong direction, your compass is off, you are looking in the wrong place, you are simply settling, and you don't want to settle when it comes to this. Time passes, you keep getting older and this world just keeps getting colder, you may think your skin is getting thicker but it's just not enough, set your record straight, set yourself on the road, find shelter in the right arms, don't settle for a normal kind of hug, settle for arms that sets you off to space.”
