Contemplations

Reading isn’t just a habit—it’s a lifeline. This year, I committed to a book every two weeks and loved every page. For 2025? 48 books in 52 weeks. A bold goal, but worth the chase. Now, I need your help: what’s the best book you’ve read this year? I’ve got 52 to plan!

Midnight snacks aren’t just about cravings—they’re about honesty, freedom, and moments of pure vulnerability. It’s those late-night fridge visits that remind me I’m not a machine, just someone longing for a little comfort in the dark. The world can wait. Until morning, at least.

Life’s full of wrong turns. But maybe, just maybe, they aren’t so wrong after all. Sometimes they’re shortcuts, sometimes detours with unexpected beauty. The trick isn’t to avoid them—but to embrace, learn, and smile, even when lost. Because sometimes, we’re exactly where we need to be.

Winter in Dubai brings a rare, crisp stillness. Sitting in my backyard, candle flickering, I found unexpected clarity—no screens, no distractions, just honest simplicity. Sometimes, to truly reconnect, we need to disconnect. A reminder that real connections often bloom in the quiet moments.

A cup of coffee left to grow cold isn’t just about a forgotten drink. It’s a symbol of how we let small, meaningful moments slip away in the chaos of life. Maybe it’s time we reclaim those moments—before they go cold, just like that coffee we once brewed with intention.

Weekend plans are grand, but when Friday night rolls in, the couch often wins. Comfort keeps us still, while adventure waits. This weekend, maybe it's time to trade the blanket for curiosity. Step out, take the warrior for a spin, and find the adventure waiting for you.
