I don't need another lover


Witchcraft? handcraft? meditation? prayers?  Looking for a solution to my broken heart I put into practice the Seven Day Ritual my mother used to do. It made a miracle in my life.

Different from my previous point of view, the ritual leaded me to a path of self knowledge, self forgiveness and freedom. On the seventh day, the last prayer. The ritual taught me not to forget, the ritual taught me to pray for him. To go on... loving with no expectations, loving just because. Why do we have to forget the ones we love?

As Krishnamurti told us, "If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market. It's not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something - and it is only such love that can know freedom".

I was embroidering a rug in arraiolo, a Portuguese tradition that had the power to calm my mind and heart. This time was "So young", from Portugal The Man that told my story... I didn't want or need another lover. 

"I don't need to make amends
But I'm done going undercover
I just want to find a friend
I don't need another lover
One day the world may end
But there's still plenty to discover
Till then I'll just pretend
I don't need another lover"

Maybe because this story hadn't reached the end. What else could happen?
