And if you really must, do so gently.

You know I think it’s the little things that make people beautiful, and are people beautiful? In every shred of the corners of this universe, yes they absolutely are.

Like the quiet rituals that feel so small they might slip through your fingers but are somehow weighty enough to hold your entire world together. The first sip of coffee that’s less about caffeine and more about a silent dialogue with your spirit. Or the sunlight that sneaks through the curtains and paints an unexpected masterpiece on your walls, as if the universe decided to bless your room for no reason at all. These are the unassuming moments that don’t shout, don’t demand to be noticed, but they wait, knowing full well they are the heartbeat of life itself.


More often than not, in the middle of winning wars or moving mountains, people lose themselves in the little things. And I think that’s the most beautiful thing about people. The way we stumble into these moments without realizing we’re about to turn them into memories. It’s how someone brushes their hair away while lost in thought, their brow furrowed with the weight of an unsolved mystery. Or the way a sheepish smile sneaks out, betraying a flicker of innocence that still lives somewhere deep within their soul. These little things, they aren’t just details; they’re the very essence of what makes life feel human, magical, and heartbreakingly fleeting.


It’s true, isn’t it? The biggest joys in life often come from the little things. How the sunlight catches someone’s face just right, turning them into your muse without them ever knowing it. How kindness, even the smallest gesture, becomes unforgettable, burrowing itself into someone’s heart and staying there. Or how you watch someone, utterly fascinated by the way they just exist, but you don’t try to change or own them. You simply let them be, and in that letting, you discover something profound, love isn’t about possession; it’s about presence.


While sometimes we do need to let go, but when we do, we do it gently, with a kind of love that doesn’t cling but still lingers in the air like the smell of rain-soaked earth. These small gestures of surrender, of quiet grace, they teach us that love doesn’t always need to be loud or victorious. Sometimes it’s in the letting go, the soft unraveling, that love finds its truest form.


Maybe that’s the secret the little things hold. They remind us that life isn’t the sum of grand gestures or towering achievements. It’s in the tender moments that seem so inconsequential but are, in truth, the foundation of everything. It’s in how people forget themselves while losing wars or moving mountains, yet find pieces of their soul in the curve of a smile, the glint of sunlight, or the warmth of a fleeting touch. And if you really must, do so gently, because the little things? They’re not so little after all.

A Flicker in Forever.

As I walk among penumbras where time folds thin, An echo, a ripple, a zephyr within. The stars—silent sentinels, cold and austere, Mark moments unclaimed, neither now nor yesteryear. A query lingers, soft and untied, Not seeking truths, but places to abide. What is the self but a transient flame, Dancing to whispers it dare not name? The earth weaves fables in roots and stone, Its cadence steady, yet never its own. I envy the river, its purpose arcane, Flowing to seas where no truths remain. Belonging eludes me, spectral, frail, A vessel unmoored, a gale with no trail. Yet in this untethering, I find reprieve, The freedom to drift, to simply believe. To be redundant, a wraith in the haze, Unheralded, nameless through infinite days. To witness the stars in their silent bloom, And the universe fade into glorious doom. I crave no laurels, no anchored creed, Just the infinite vast and a soul unfreed. To meld with the cosmos, a whisper, a sigh, To linger in voids where none question why. Le...

Miles of space to play with

People like to believe the universe is some grand orchestrator, shuffling fate cards like a moody blackjack dealer. But sometimes, it just sits back with popcorn and watches two people fumble their way into a slow-burning disaster that smells vaguely of espresso and unresolved tension. Enter Nat and Miles, two souls with more chemistry than a freshman lab fire, and just about as much common sense. By now, I assume you know Miles a bit. So allow me to introduce Nat. Nat. Now there’s a piece of work the universe clearly cooked up on a cheeky day. All sharp wit, unreadable playlists, and the kind of elegance that doesn’t try, it just is. She walks into a room like she already knows the ending but still watches everyone else catch up. She’ll dissect a business pitch, write a blog that punches through your chest, and still look vaguely annoyed that you haven’t figured out how she takes her coffee (strong, like her opinions, with a splash of almond milk and quiet judgment). But don’t be fool...
