Beneath the veil, it began as a spark — a fleeting glimmer I thought time would quietly extinguish. But instead of fading, it settled into me like an ember beneath ash, glowing where no eyes could see.
It became a hidden room in my heart — a place where a love that never bloomed in the world still lingers like the scent of rain on dry earth. Unseen, untouched, unnamed — yet real enough to echo within me.
If there were to be a biography about me, I would title it “Weaving the Colors.” I hold the belief that life is akin to tapestries of experiences, resembling various colors. As I absorb both the positive and negative aspects of these experiences and integrate them into my life, I see myself weaving different strands of colors to create a beautiful and marvelous attire. This process is a personal endeavor, and I take pride in the fact that it’s not a borrowed design but one that I’ve earned. So, “Weaving the Colors” would be a fitting title, as I continue to collect and intertwine the diverse strands to complete the unique pattern of my life.
PS: It’s actually coming very soon.
My parents were likely new parents at my age, navigating the challenges of caring for their one-month-old daughter. It’s possible that they felt utterly clueless, especially my dad, regarding the responsibilities of parenting and providing for a family of four. Alternatively, he may have been less concerned about finances during that time, as my grandmother, his mother, was receiving a government pension.
The most ideal day, unfortunately, remains a privilege I have yet to experience. Nevertheless, I envision my ideal day as one filled with laughter, good food, and the presence of my loved ones, enjoying each other’s company. It’s a day where we embark on travels to new places, away from the distractions of social media, fully immersed in the joy of our shared moments.
In this ideal day, love and joy prevail, making every moment spent together special. It’s a day where we share stories and create memories, appreciating the unfolding tapestry of life. This, in my vision, would truly be the best day of my life.
Life is a lesson that I can learn each day. I am glad to learn from each passing moment and become wiser every day. Life, for me, has had many ups and downs, with toils and sorrows pushing me to the brink of giving up. I do not know how I can get through these, but by the grace of God and His mighty benevolence, I am holding on and thriving in His presence. It’s neither shallow nor deep; I am blessed to be surrounded by good people wherever I go.
