We’ve all had those moments when nothing seems to go in your favor, and you can’t see the way out. It's a bit on the cliche side, but it’s true that where one door closes, another one opens. Stepping into the unexpected is one of the most inspiring things in life. Sometimes you need to fall face down before you can bounce back into something new. And isn’t that the most magical thing when failure (or better: redirection) turns into a perfectly cut diamond?

As an adult, nothing, seems to be more complex than love. Yet it is the key to our entire existence, and it should be simple and easy. The world can be cold sometimes, grown-ups forgot what it felt like to have unconditional love for the things surrounding them. We ruin our planet, sometimes even each other. Conversations focus more on what people do, than on who they are. Children’s books, however, can show the good in people in quite the unexpected way. It is usually the underdog, that has the purest heart. Reading about it, without all the complexity, creates that warm fuzzy feeling inside of us. And that fuzzy feeling, for me personally, does something else: I get hopeful. Hopeful that with showing love, warmth, and care, I create beautiful connections with beautiful people. And that my online friends, is the power of love.
