It has been a while since I have reached out to Ligia, my alter ego, my reflection from A Sleepy Spirit Art. I wonder what she has been doing lately?

In a second, I turned to her, but she seemed busy. Busy for me? Can you believe that?

So I waited and waited for a while until she finally turned around and smiled to me.

“Hope I haven’t kept you waiting… I had a special guest tonight…”

“I was just surprised you didn’t had time for me? It feels I have waited for you for an eternity!”

“Don’t be foolish, I was just enjoying my guests’ company for whom I have waited an eternity to chat with! ;)”

“Your guest? Who?”

“Haven’t you noticed? My guest was the moon, of course! Adorable presence, worth waiting an eternity for!”

“What did the moon say to you?”

Ligia lightened up her cigarette and looked up to the sky. The cigarette smoke formed a fine moon shape that vanished into the darkness, in seconds.

“Oh not much…” she said. “Only that eternity is too short for a dream!”

“What is that even mean?” I replied troubled.

“I would guess that is another way of saying that fulfilling a dream is like winning a race with time”.

“I guess the moon is right” I smiled back to Ligia. “Oh but look at the time…I must run now! I’ll catch up with you later!”

I didn’t wait for her to answer, but it wasn’t necessary. She knew I was running towards my dreams. She knew… because she was part of them. ❤️
