Delight

 What is our delight in?

I recently came across an instagram post that details the pronounciation and spelling of the word "Lion" in various languages. 

Apparently, the word Lion in Turkish is Aslan.

Wow, C S Lewis, nice usage of the turkish word there.

It then reminded me that the witch, upon encountering Edward, Edward asked for Turkish delight. Maybe the real turkish delight is Aslan, the turkish word for lion. Maybe Aslan is the real turkish delight. Is the turkish delight we long for the candy? It is very good, and delicious. But it soon runs empty and dry.

What is truly satisfying?

Or maybe the question should be... Who is truly satisfying?

Aslan, come and satisfy.

Moving House

2 weeks ago, I celebrated my 21st birthday.

Apologies. I meant, I had my 21st birthday.

All right fine, I turned 21.

Since then till now, adult life has been a little bit of a hussle.

Starting with, I had to move out and get a room(with myself only, dummy).

Packing your stuff is a HUGE thing to do especially if you have not done it before.

A pic of some other stuff which I brought to my new place.

Moving house is a.... time where you gather everything you have and you really decide what do you want to keep and what do you want to throw.

And it isn't easy, as you need to know what memories you want to keep and what you should move on from.

But at the end of the day, keep making new memories and new experiences.


A new place as I prepare myself to enter the new year.
Turned 21 too so I'm an adult now.

But what does life hold for an adult like me?
Still yet to find out.
