Autumn, But Spring Stays

Letters to the Future — V

In Between Moments

Our experiences pan themselves out in between moments that are true to the yearning of the heart and ones that paint false images for an easy exit. While one moves to the echoes of a yearning heart, I guess there is also a degree of adversity. Adversity in this case…

Dreaming of You

How far can one stray away from their dreams when all that is longed for is to live one’s waking hours in reverse? Of course, the thought that one gets closer to their dream one step at a time. But when the call of the heart is set in stone…

“But who can remember pain, once it’s over? All that remains of it is a shadow, not in the mind even, in the flesh. Pain marks you, but too deep to see. Out of sight, out of mind.” ― Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale Life can be quite poetic but…
