At 6 AM everyday, I see an old man sitting alone in the park, sipping hot coffee from his Peet’s mug. He keeps his mask under his chin, and watches the birds flying above. I try to keep the social distance, tip-toe, and balance my steps with my foggy glasses and cotton masks. Yet I wonder why he is there, for months, at that time of the day, alone.

Library, The Quiet World Of Stories
Once in a while, when people around me go to exotic locations or restaurants to celebrate holidays, I step into a library. The city library is heaven. I mean, if heaven exists, then it looks like a big library, with old books and well cushioned armchairs.

Once in a while I sit here and write out many things. I call them “word tears” from the eyes of the soul. Drop by drop. Word by word. Those words are solitude lovers, they hardly travel. They are hidden somewhere in a pretty peony printed diary. Continue reading “Library, The Quiet World Of Stories”
5 Day Black & White Challenge: Day 5
The road to destination is not always a perfect one. We get lost, we turn back, we pick up the wrong map. But the journey is enchanting. Sometimes I want to stop and say, I may not be on the right track, but what a ride! Sometimes that’s what this journey looks like.

“Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify.” ― Thoreau
Simplicity is complex. I heard, in a frame you can keep everything, but everything is not necessary. Sometimes I focus on less, not because I don’t want more, but because minimalism inspires me to have things I value the most, to remove things that don’t make the picture a masterpiece.
The Art of Wandering
“Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.”
― Pablo Picasso
I adore many non-religious celebrations in which we celebrate people and our relationships. Therefore February 14 is never like any other day. It is special, very special. Continue reading “The Art of Wandering”
Solitude in Winter
During a drive from Reno, we stopped to capture sunset in Carson City. Carson city is one beautiful little place and also the capital of the state of Nevada. It’s also the place I recently fell in love with, and clicked more than a dozen pictures in half an hour. Continue reading “Solitude in Winter”
