Joie de Vivre.
A delight in being alive;
Keen, carefree enjoyment of living.

My name is Raquel.
I like clichés, literature, acoustic guitar, harp, every shade of blue, animals, antlers, art, and people who love like love is precious.
I'm a 16 year old girl. I write in a journal and draw in a sketchbook.
There's not much else to say.
