Verina

My name is Verina, I'm 26 years old. I love my life. Not because it's always perfect, but because I've learned to notice the good in it - people, moments, music, delicious food, the road behind the wheel and simple evenings, which are sometimes the most memorable. I'm one of those people who likes to take care of others. I like to notice the details: asking if everything is okay, reminding about something important, cooking something delicious, supporting when someone is having a hard time, or just writing a message to a person saying: "How are you?".

For me, caring is not necessarily something big. Sometimes it is hidden in a cup of your favorite coffee, brought without asking. In warm words. In a long conversation. In a simple desire to be near. Maybe that is why people often feel comfortable with me. I have beautiful brown eyes, round feminine shapes, and I do not try to be someone else. I love myself as I am, and I am learning to see beauty not only in the mirror, but also in what is inside me.

I really love driving a car. There is something special about the moment when you get behind the wheel, turn on the music and just drive. The road is ahead, your favorite song is playing in the cabin, and all unnecessary thoughts are left behind for a while. I like such moments of freedom. When you don’t have to rush anywhere. Just drive, listen to music and enjoy the road. And I also love delicious food. I sincerely believe that food is one of those things that can make a day better. Especially if there are good people around, lots of conversation and laughter. I love dancing.

Even if the music is just playing somewhere in the background, I can start singing along, moving to the beat, and not think about how it looks from the outside. And I love singing no less. Maybe I don't always sing perfectly, but I always sing from the heart. For me, life is not about perfection at all. It's about feelings. About laughter that can't be stopped. About music that gives you goosebumps. About a road that leads to who knows where. About a delicious dinner after a long day. About dancing, when you forget about everything around you. About people who make you want to give your attention and warmth. I'm 26, and I already understand one important thing: life doesn't need to be waited for. It needs to be lived. Here and now.

I want to see a lot more, try a lot more, fall in love with new places, songs, people and moments many times. I want to continue to take care of those I love, but at the same time not forget to take care of myself. I want to get behind the wheel, turn on my favorite music and drive towards a new day. Dance, sing, laugh. Eat something incredibly delicious and not count how many times this evening I said: “God, how delicious it is.” And just be happy. Because I am Verina. I am 26. I have brown eyes, feminine shapes, a big heart and a huge love for life. And I don’t want to live it quietly. I want to feel it to the fullest — to love, care, laugh, dance, sing and every day find another reason to say: “How good it is that this is my life.”

And, probably, if I were asked to describe myself in one sentence, I would say: I really love life and the people in it. I generally like to give people care. I like to notice small details. Remember what kind of coffee a loved one likes. Ask how their day was. Cook something delicious when someone is tired. Write a message simply because I wanted to remind them: “I’m there.” For me, care is the language of love. I don’t need to wait for a special occasion to show attention. If I love a person, I want them to feel it. I have brown eyes, feminine forms, a love for life and a huge desire to live it not on automatic mode, but for real. So I get behind the wheel again, turn on my favorite song and move forward. I don’t know where this road will lead me. But I don’t need to know. The main thing is that along the way I don't forget to smile, love, care, dance, sing, and enjoy the fact that this life is mine.
