Fall is here. It’s the perfect time to wrap your cardigan around you and, with a deep sigh, gaze into the distance. If you squint, you might find fragments of your past blurring somewhere on the horizon.
Things are so different between today and yesterday. Love from a distance.
Maybe "now" is much more distant. Maybe "yesterday" is nearer and "tomorrow" already in the past. - Mahmoud Darwish
It needed to get cold before I started appreciating warmth. I know that, come winter, when my hands turn blue, I’ll crave the summer sun.
I turn longing into art. Confronting that mirror is my best practice.
Kindness is what brings us together. If you can, please consider helping the Sameer Project. It is a fast-response mutual aid initiative supporting the most vulnerable communities in Gaza.

We always want what we can’t have, when it’s hotter weather I impatiently wait for colder days and vice versa.

Ah, Darwish poetry probably made my mind work so deeply. 😁
It sounds contrasting, but it’s true. The conflicting thoughts and feelings we have sometimes. 🤭

I feel like time, for Darwish, sometimes falls in on itself. Like it’s a huge stretch and all in one knot, all at once.
Who would understand that contrast and contradiction? 😅

It’s impossible! Understanding humans, entirely? I don’t even understand myself most of the time! 😅
