You’re my favourite hurricane
Our decisions might fight back and life could knock us off course but together, we’re here to breathe, meeting our future as it becomes our present.

Note to self: Be thankful for those that let you down

A wall with clusters of colours ― blacks and blues with bits of golden yellow cutting through and dots of green in between. A wall of my story and my journey, when looked at in isolation were ceramic shards but when put together made a beautiful mosaic wall of memories…of life.

Attitude of Gratitude

Why disappointment is actually good for you
People will disappoint you in life. Friendships you’ve had for years will fall apart. People you’ve looked up to will not always have your interest at heart. Strangers will not always be who they say they are. The loves of your life will change and often, you might even disappoint yourself with life choices and roads less taken.

silver lining
to the eyes that feel,
and the romantic hearts that see,
there’s a silver lining
fleeting emotions
What is it about
fleeting emotions captured
to have and to hold?
