So apparently, the Cambridge Dictionary has officially added the word skibidi. Yes, you read that right. Skibidi. A term I first heard from my son’s classmates, where I assumed it was just the latest fidget-spinner-type craze or some new plastic gizmo that would end up under my couch […]
Sometimes life feels like crossing a desert with no map. The air shimmers, the horizon wavers, and in our longing, we convince ourselves that the blur ahead is an oasis of shade, water, relief. But more often than not, when we finally stumble closer, we realize it was […]
There’s this old biblical phrase I stumbled on again: “never blew an uncertain trumpet.” Basically, it means someone always gave a clear call, never muddled or half-hearted. No room for confusion. Which got me thinking about how rare is that these days? Most of life seems to be […]
What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time? People love to play that hypothetical game of “If you could only carry one thing with you..” And usually, it’s practical stuff. Wallet. Keys. Cell phone. The classics. But here’s the thing. Wallets are becoming […]

Some Wednesdays stretch like hot taffy left on a dashboard. Sticky. Slightly regrettable. And somehow still oddly satisfying. It’s that time of week where the to-do list has morphed into a didn’t-do-it list, the iced coffee lost its chill hours ago, and your inbox has become a crime […]
Some say Mondays are the worst. But Tuesdays? Tuesdays are sneakier. They lull you into thinking the week has begun, that you’re already mid-stream… when really, you’re still paddling in circles with coffee that isn’t quite strong enough and eyelids that are on strike. Today, I am operating […]
List 30 things that make you happy. There once was a gal in high heels,Who spun joy like spokes on her wheels.She’d scream to the skies,With no compromise,Then dance till she shattered all feels. Joy is the fire I fiercely chase,In pink my forever riotous grace.Give me magic, […]
