The Weight, The Why, and The Joy in Between

It’s never about the weight—it’s about how we carry it.
It’s never about the work—it’s about why we do it.
It’s never about the grand sights—it’s about the stories they hold.
It’s never about big things—it’s about finding big meaning in small moments.

Happiness isn’t loud. It doesn’t need a grand stage. It lives in quiet corners, in the way we see, in the way we let things be.

To find joy is to notice it. And to let it stay.

(at Pattaya, Thailand)

The waterfront arrived unannounced.
We walked through pathways and roads that were remarkably well maintained given that there was practically no one there. We descended a flight of stairs and the sea was upon us.
Holding a lingering crimson of a setting Sun for just a minute longer. Like lovers hugging and saying goodbye in a train station.

A lady and her brisk dog walked by. Each anticipating the others move. With space, joy and untethered happiness.

It was a moment that the Sun would have rued missing.
