The whirlwind of life

One day you drink a carton of orange juice at recess

The next day, you swap it for a glass of wine in the evening.

With your mother's shoes, you play dress up

But in your adult life, size 10 heels will adorn your feet.

The Barbies you kept playing with

Your latest smartphone will be replaced

Make way for the first emotions, the first times

Your first teenage crush

Where for you it is inconceivable, of all this love, to be able to live without

At that time, when you feel yourself capsizing with every lingering glance

You already see yourself in front of the altar in your head

With this feeling that in your relationship, nothing can stop you.

But very often, despite everything, reality will come to spoil this utopian celebration.

You will have life experiences even if it is not every day.

And you will see that first love unfortunately does not often rhyme with forever.

So yes you will feel like it's the end of the world

And yet quite often you will recover from much more nauseating life situations.

Gone is the carefree childhood

Without all these filters, without this prism of propriety

Then one day, as an adult, you will become

And you will see, the whole world will open its arms to you

It's up to you to decide what your path will be.

And you will finally discover what the power of choice is.

So yes, mourning and separations will replace the little adolescent heartaches.

But this life will also be punctuated with possibilities, with fulfilling projects.

Travel as you please

Evolve in a job that suits you

With a partner, share projects together

Or growing old surrounded by a family that gathers together at every opportunity.

And then one day, life leaves its most beautiful wrinkles on your face.

Your jay-black hair is slowly turning into a golden gray.

From your memory, some memories you will begin to forget

And after a full life, your eyelids will slowly close

To go and join your beloved spouse in this white paradise.

Such is the whirlwind of life.
