The River Speaks

Love is the river of life in the world.

Hi, I really like this blog, and every thing you write. It's amazing. Tomorrow I have to bring to school one poem, song, movie, book etc that describes who you are, and I just read millions and millions from here and I can't pick one! They are all oh so beautifully written. It really amazes me. (sorry if there are any mistakes, English is not my first language) asked by Anonymous

Ah that’s so sweet! Let me know which one you chose! X

I don't know who I am anymore, I feel lost. I can't find a reason to wake in the morning, why do we exist? I feel like nobody on earth holds the answer and still it is the only questions that should be answered. asked by effy97

I do not know how to answer your message. I know why I’m here, but I don’t know if it’ll help you right now if I say this.

But well… I believe in God and I believe I’m here to follow Him and to tell the world about His love. It gives me a lot of peace. I still wonder why things happen and I feel lost a lot, but I always find myself in Him. I hope you will discover this peace as well. You can search for it your whole life, but I believe I found the answer. I hope you’ll find it yourself too one day X

Hi, I just found out that quite a number of people find my blog through yours so I was looking around your tumblr and saw my url on the list of writers you follow! You have no idea how honoured I am! Thank you so much, darling, and keep up the writing :) it's absolutely lovely. asked by toohotforkoolaid

AH THIS IS SO GREAT! I’ve been following you for a very long time and I absolutely adore your writing, your a big inspiration to me. This message means a lot, thank you so much! 

update’ll come soon

So I have this ex and we have been on & off for 3 years. This past year we have just been talking. His birthday was at the beginning of the month & I went to his house to celebrate. anyways,we kissed & he told me he still loved me and other. We talked for another week after that and he hasn't texted me back since. I've been ignored basically. I found out that he's now talking to another ex of his & he just left me hanging. I still have feelings for him & I don't know what to do. I'm sad..Help :( asked by Anonymous

You just really have to talk about it. Otherwise you don’t know how he feels and he doesn’t know how you feel. Tell him you still have feelings and you want to talk to him and ask him what he wants know and why he ignores you. You can keep on wondering what he wants, but just ask it!

Lots of love, Christianne

I don't know what's going on with my love life to be honest. I don't know wether i love him or not, we went out for a coffee but it wasn't a date, we talked, we laughed and i gave him his birthday gift. He liked it very much and he kept thanking me. I loved everytime he laughed, i love his laugh, it's so cute. I have no idea how he feels and i don't wanna think he loves me just to find out he doesn't. I have quite big doubts and i don't know how to deal with them. A little help would be nice <33 asked by Anonymous

Hello lovely,

Well, I also cannot tell you whether you love him or not or whether he loves you or not. I can only tell that if you keep on being afraid and held back, things will never work out. You do not have to know everything yet. Take things slow, keep on seeing him and try to find out what you feel and what you want. Do you think about him a lot? Does he make you happier? It’ll be fine, don’t worry too much!
Lots of love, C 

Hey! Firstly, sorry if there´s any mistake, I speak Spanish. I just wanted to say I love your posts and they make me feel overwhelmed with emotions every time I read them, It´s like you write those random things I´m always feeling. How do you create all those things? And...why is it called "The River Speaks"? Well, much love and good luck!! asked by -freeyoursoul-

I feel so flattered by your words, thank you so much, it means a lot to me. I just go and sit behind my computer and write down the things I’m feeling and the things I’m thinking about! And I don’t have a beautiful, deep reason why I called my blog The River Speaks. On a vacation a few years ago, there was this little, wonderful river and I could sit next to it for hours and just listen to its peacefullness. When I think back to that moment, I just feel peaceful myself, less worried, more hopeful. And I hope my words will be like that most of the time. It just sounded like a pretty good name, actually.

I've given my heart to a man who doesn't love me. I know what people usually say "it will go away, there are other fish in the sea" etc etc. It's not like that. It's not a crush or a burst of excitement over a new acquaintance. It gives me more pain than I thought I could ever sustain. I can't stop loving him and he is in love with someone else. So what does one do in this case? asked by Anonymous

Hello,

first: look at my FAQ http://theriverspeaks.tumblr.com/FAQ

there may be a few helpful tips there. But I see it’s not that easy. People don’t understand it indeed, but it can take years to get over someone. If he’s in love with someone else, you can’t just change his feelings. And you can’t just change yours. Maybe you will never stop loving him, but perhaps that shouldn’t be your ‘goal’. Forget the changing of these feelings. You just can’t at the moment. Focus on dealing with these feelings. What makes it so hard? When do they get stronger and when don’t you think about them? Go on long walks, take your time to rest, to think, to write it all down. And, very important, try to talk about it met someone. Can you talk about it with him? It would definitely help, but I don’t know how close you are with him. If this isn’t possible, try to talk to someone who knows you well. He or she can help, really. Don’t estimate this. Talking really works. Try to give your feelings a place where they don’t confuse you, break you, change you in a negative way. Try to find your way in this situation and realize that it won’t change.

I’m so sorry for you, I wish you all the best and more.

Hugs, Christianne
