A small thought on why I believe in God <3

Just a little reminder to myself during this grind period.

I saw a lovely thought about fall’s emphasis on the soul, and as a professional yearner and romantic, I thought, yes. That is exactly why I love fall.

For anyone who has ever felt they had to make themselves smaller for others.

Noticing is beautiful and painful.

September is a bridge between summer and autumn, and it's one of my favorite transitions. I love fall, but I’m not quite ready to let summer go. Thankfully, I have some time.

A small thought about city and nature intersecting.

The tie that holds us all together: love.

Got my inspiration from a walk in Prospect Park.

Worry can also bring about inspiration.

A small thought while hiking.

This is the last blog post of my 20s! I will soon be entering a new decade, and I’m so excited about it.

It’s funny: I started this blog as an assignment for graduate school, a place where I could share my thoughts while navigating my 20s.

But now this blog has evolved, grown, and become so integrated into my life. I’m so thankful for all of you, and I can’t wait to keep this going.

For today’s post, I wanted to do something different. I wanted to create a space where I could reflect, express gratitude, and feel optimistic about what’s yet to come. <3

I will soon be 30, so here are 30 things I have learned.

The ingredients of a pastry are woven in so beautifully.

Inspired by the mercy of Allah, where He says: “If you come to Me walking, I will come to you running.”

It’s my birth month, and I’m very happy.

Green is such a beautiful color.

There is a lot going on this week, so I'm leaving you with this short thought.

This week’s sunset felt familiar but different.

Someday, yes. Someday, no. Time will let us know.

Just reflecting on the afterlife.
