Yesterday, I arrived in Paris exhausted and yet elated to return to a city I love so much. Today was spent at the Louvre with my sister, and I shared with her my love for sculpture. The natural light coming down from the skylight ceiling of the Richelieu section highlighted the beauty of the art and made for great photos.
A sense of peace in stone
Rainy day at the Tuileries gardens.

Tree shadows jumping
Hold the universe’s secret.
What?
I came across this old piece of writing of mine in an sketch book from high school and was taken aback by it. Even then, I was an introspective dreamer.
If it’s meant for you, you won’t have to beg for it. You will never have to sacrifice your dignity for your destiny.
— Chelsis Porter

As soon as spring arrives, I’ll be here outside my neighbourhood library by the park and gardens with a coffee and good book. It doesn’t take much to make me happy – give me good weather and quiet time, and life seems perfect.
J’adore
Sometimes I struggle so hard to write, and then I read something like this and I find myself envious and in love with the complete pure beauty and wisdom of children.
Whenever I see an elderly couple, both white-haired and crossing the street holdings hands as they did in their youth, I silently squeal inside with happiness, and think to myself, “I want to be like that”.
You’re like a Kit-Kat bar:
Equally sweet and good for one or when shared with many.
You’re like a forest:
I can get lost in you.
You’re like a period:
Things make better sense when you’re around.

In one month, I’ll be back! I cannot wait.
