plant lavender for luck.

Talking about luck, I remembered that I always wanted to plant a lavender at home. But not only to attract a good luck. :)
It's very beautiful & also has some powers of relaxing! If you put lavender seeds and flowers in pillow,  it will aid your sleep! Also an infusion of three flower-heads added to a cup of boiling water soothes and relaxes at bedtime. Flowers can be candied and are sometimes even used as cake decorations! How lovely is that, ha?

[...] But there are some things I know for certain: always throw split salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can. ~ Sally Owens

[...] I think if you lifted my heart to your ear, you could probably hear the ocean.

My heart is an ocean, oceano mare, evenly swinging from side to side.. overflowing me from the inside with a high sparkling wave when fatal turn-round hits from the very bottom of it.. at that moment I know, I know which way I got to go.. and then I step aside and listen to it, I hear its waves calming me down, silently throbbing maktub..
Sometimes you have to build a bridge of chance for someone you love.
