I Want To Touch The Rainbow

As a young girl, I wanted to touch the rainbow.

To walk on the clouds
To inhale bright moonlight
And to sleep on the soft grass.

With time, these wishes grew into real aspirations.

I wanted a better job,
A foreign trip
A loving husband
A good house
A child
And a reliable maid.

Few years later, I got married and most of my aspirations became realities.

I quit my job.
Got a loving husband and a cheerful child
Living in a good house
And boasting of a honest house help.

Now, I want to be young again.

To be able to laugh notoriously.
To sleep without worrying
To gossip with friends without thinking
To rush to mummy at the first thought
To demand little things from papa once again.

Once again, I want to touch the rainbow.

To sleep on the soft grass
And to walk on the clouds.

This picture is quite close to what I wanted as a young girl. I was very close to the clouds, inhaling the crisp, fresh air, about to fall in the nature of the lap.

Last 35 years have taught me the importance of dreams.

It is essential to dream. To think of places you have never been to. To become a child at the first chance given. And to never lose contact with yourself.
