then the circle of your friends will defend the silver lining


remember that you're a flower of light
it's time to blossom and shine
it's never too late to show your bright colors
there's true beauty inside!

and when the falcon settles me, then i know i'm right



perhaps we'll never know what we're truly here for, what we really want to get out of this thing called "life". sometimes it just seems like an endless journey, full of trivial pursuits and empty laughter.

have you ever sat in a crowded room and felt so alone? there can be so many people around you, so many people who know you're there, but no one that takes a deep glance to really see you, no one to take a look inside. life is sometimes just putting on a mask, going with the flow, and passing unseen, but the real treasure lies deep under the surface. and when someone finally digs it up, that's definitely something to never throw away. the ability to open up without fear, the strength to show someone what is really inside, now that's definitely something worth living and fighting for.

i implore you. don't look back. don't be scared. dig deep. look inside. don't turn away. there are treasures to be found.

makes me work a little bit harder, makes me that much wiser


our life after.

what is it about culture that brings us all together? an amazing invisible power that ties together generations. unity that transcends identity, boundaries of recognition. we are all under the same umbrella. have you ever felt like you knew a stranger? that you understand what a man is going through, as if it was your own father in an alternate universe.

take another step simply to reflect. do you know your roots? roots that stretch out deeply within family circles, that seeps out across communities? have you noticed those flowers? those that blossom through the new friendships and relationships that we have.

share in the experience.
