your embodiment of dichotomies compels me:

extroverted yet introverted, because you know your limits.
young yet wise, because you are perceptive.
vulnerable yet strong, because you acknowledge your fears.
clumsy yet graceful, because you're not afraid to fall.

there is something ancient and magical about your total embrace of the journey:
you make me smile for the legacy you are leaving behind.

Belen is beautiful, inside and out.
Belen's eyes are deep enough to fall into, swim around, and then find yourself there, and perhaps find her too if you're lucky enough. When you finally drag yourself out, you'll be covered in that sparkly dust that makes the twinkle in her eye. I wonder if it makes you able to fly, that sparkle?
Belen is one of the strongest, bravest, sweetest, most-dedicated-to-personal-growth people I've met.
She's an Amazon.
She's a lost kitten.
She's a force of nature.
She's a cupcake.
She's a Redwood tree.
She's a baby coconut sapling.
She's a rock.
She's playa dust.

She IS.

This girl right here, she is something special, and I mean really special. I felt instantly connected to her. In the time I have known her I have been in awe of her insights and depth and in her ability and desire to learn, understand and grow. Keep an eye on this one, she is only just beginning to bloom and I have no doubt that she will bloom and radiate and glow and inspire for the rest of her shining life. She is a good one, filled with so much love, appreciation, creativity and joy that she shares so openly with those in her life. I am blessed to have her in my life. I love this girl, I really do.
