Alone
I never knew I would cherish this kind of time, being alone in a coffee shop, just me and my thoughts.. I was always planning to spend this quiet time without scrolling my phone but..

For January it's Peace ( well actually it's my theme for 2025, PEACE), and for February, I choose abundance. Why abundance? Because this is the time for me to accept all the overflowing … Continue reading Abundance
