The Stillness Between Stars
A Whisper from the Universe
In the hush that hangs
between one heartbeat and the next,
a universe leans in—
listening.
Light takes its time
carrying old stories
across the cold,
and even the stars
wait their turn to speak.
We are made of that waiting—
of dust that once burned,
of echoes older
than the word forever.
Yet here you are,
a small and shining certainty,
breathing warmth
into the vast
and quiet
dark.
And the cosmos,
ancient and endless,
softens—
because for a moment,
you dared
to notice it.

The Clockmaker’s Gift
Start writing...In a quiet village at the edge of a vast forest lived an old clockmaker named Edrin. His workshop was small, cluttered with gears, springs, and timepieces that hummed like gentle bees. People said he could fix any clock, no matter how broken—some even whispered he could fix time itself.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
