It seems like,

I'm living my life,

one sunset at a time.

Often what you're looking for,

isn't too far away,

you need only look,

outside the window.

Within the hues of sunset,

I found myself,

a bit more lost than usual,

perhaps there was a finding,

even within the losing.

Considering the heart, I don't think time heals the wounds inflicted on the heart, it's a lot more complicated than just that, because heart is a complex thing. Often, with time, we can see that the heart might have healed or forgotten apparently, but then all of a sudden, little things of memories come rushing back and you realize that you never really healed, not when it concerned your heart. It's a tragically unfortunate thing, but just a part of life we've got to learn to live with.

I'm overwhelmingly overcome often,

with feelings I can't really comprehend,

yet I'm filled with a gratitude so immense,

that it takes over, even my reminiscence.

Serendipity

A serendipitous occurrence that lead me to this part of the beach, when I decided to continue on the cycling path when otherwise I would have stopped. Often, we don't see but fate does work in our favor, in more ways than we can anticipate. Such moments bring out the graciousness within me, and I marvel at the views I get privileged to witness. Every door, every opportunity has its own predefined time, within our lives, even when we may not realize it at the first instant. One thing we cannot let go of is the struggle and effort to keep transforming us into better versions of ourselves.

Gotta keep striving though.

These skies, seemingly faltering structures may not define me or my worth, but I have spent many years in their vicinity and lived, even when there have been adversities. Every time I come back I am reminded of the pains, but without those pains, how else could I have encountered growth. Even the flight of birds, these crows and eagles, is unique, something I haven’t been able to find elsewhere, plausibly spelling out their approval of a return, albeit only transient. I get lost, time and time again, and yet I find myself every time too, it is an unfathomable concept, one that will take many lives to be fully acknowledged. For now, I shall try to cherish what comes my way, and relish the challenges simultaneously. When I consult my mind, it brings up complex scenarios, I guess it never learned how to talk in simple terms. When I talk to my heart instead, I am met with deafening silence, which is sad, but I’d like to think it did listen, and perhaps it will talk to me soon.

A beautiful sunrise

My quest for the sun led me all the way back to my home country and what a beautiful sunrise I was fortunate enough to witness as the plane landed. It's been a long time coming and the wait has definitely had its toll on me but for some reason there's another kind of peace that being home brings. Although I'm still skeptical on the concept of home being a place, but for now I shall take joy in this feeling and be happy that things worked out. Life often works in mysterious ways. Super grateful though, now and always.
