    When des-laced how lovely it looks.

  • How true! In 2016, I received a call while I was shopping at the market that I got a new job. Thrilled, I ran to tell my Mum at home. On the way, a huge spider web block my path. I knew on the spot that it wasn't the right job for me. Years later, I understand why that job was not right for me.

    Wow! Kaya What a sharp and striking little piece! ✨ The spider web is both a trap and a cautionary tale—a perfect metaphor wrapped in just a few lines. Simple, yet it sticks with you like the web itself. Clever and chilling!👏😊
