Spicy chai tea. Headphones in with shanti mantras calming me down as I attempt a stroll through the tornado – my mind.

It is insane to think that last night, I had so much to say. The words in my mind kept me up and woke me up in the wee hours. Settle.

I saw someone after almost two years. Startled is an understatement.

“Why are you here? This is my city!” shouting in my head last night. The eye contact I was not expecting shook me. However, it is alright now. You can stay. I mean, not that anybody needs my permission.

Shanti. Shanti. Shanti.

I joined my yoga instructor and a new friend at the morning I Heart Market today. They make amazing mocktails from fresh coconut water and pineapple or orange juice. So many laughs and genuine happiness just by being with the right, positive people.

Let’s continue this journey with some zest, shall we?

With love,
