This is poetic, motivational, and beautiful! I consider autumn to be my second New Year's, and if there is one thing I'm adding to that resolution, it's to live in the moment and enjoy the little things in life. The coffee brewing (as it is right now), birds chirping, children laughing, all the things that go unnoticed but make life all the more beautiful.
Beautifully written Minaz, yes, after a restful sleep to awaken to a new day above the grass is a blessing. Memories fade, as I find out each time my eldest son talks about things he remembers, just as he did yesterday. It meant something to him. But I had totally forgotten the day I took him out to buy a catcher’s glove ( he was in the baseball team at school)
I am pleased that I have written my life story because I’m sure there are many more things I will have forgotten, as we refer them to as “seniors moments” 🤣
It’s pretty long as I also included my grandparents, parents and siblings. I finished it when our last grandchild was born as I figured the family know what my life is now, it was the past that needed to be remembered.
In every breath and moment, the Divine whispers. The ordinary is a veil through which the extraordinary reveals itself. What you see as routine is but the surface of a deeper truth. The essence of life’s magic lies in the presence of the Beloved in each fleeting second. Embrace each moment with the heart’s eye open, for even the mundane is a reflection of the Infinite. In the rhythm of the everyday, find the sacred dance of existence, and let each ordinary day be a prayer of gratitude for the Divine’s continuous gift of life.
Looking back is always nostalgic. Enjoying living moments also gives pleasure but all happenings may not be to your expectations. Any way we should try happiness in small things around our daily life.
That's the right spirit! The moments of the past were once the ordinary moments in the present and the ordinariness of today is shaping our memories of the future. Enjoy these moments!

Thank you so much. I love the idea of a second new year :)

Publish it in parts on Substack. I am keen to read. I am sure many others are as well
I’ll give it some thought Minaz

So beautifully expressed! Truly, we need to be grateful for every moment of every day.
Sounds so much like Karen Gibsons song the Painted Room
What if we programmed our minds to look out for the magic in the ordinary?
Lovely !!
Soft reminder to continuing existence :)
I am glad you see it this way :)
This is a really good post
Thank you for reading Rafael
Just like you do in your writing Sanket :)
