  1. Once upon a time…
    Years ago, when my children were still little, I used to dream that each of them would have their own room… a warm bed, beautiful blankets, soft pillows, desks, wardrobes, and a vanity.
    I would always look at designs and decorations, imagining that dream coming true…
    And with time… the dream came true 💔
    Each of my children had their own room. I bought bedroom sets for them and paid attention to every detail… the blankets, the organization, the colors…
    They were small details… but they were my whole world.
    I was happy with my home, my routine, my comfort, and my stability.
    Today…
    How much I miss every corner of it…
    I miss the feeling of home, the bed, my children’s rooms, the TV room, the couch…
    I miss my spacious kitchen that I carefully built piece by piece…
    I miss the feeling of safety, independence, and warmth…
    There are so many things… I could write for days and never finish 💔
    And I know this is not just my feeling… this is the story of an entire country.
    People who once lived the simplest details of life with dignity…
    are now struggling just to secure the basics.
    Alhamdulillah always and forever…

  2. It's not easy for me to live life brokenhearted and being single for six years, with always flashbacks of moments spent in a relationship that others experience, but I don't.

  3. A quotation from Euripides

    CHORUS: Never, oh goddess, let fly at me an inescapable arrow
    from your golden bow, after you drench it in desire.
     
    [ΚΥΚΛΩΨ: μήποτ᾽, ὦ δέσποιν᾽, ἐπ᾽ ἐμοὶ χρυσέων
    τόξων ἀφείης ἱμέρῳ
    χρίσασ᾽ ἄφυκτον οἰστόν.]

    Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
    Medea [Μήδεια], l. 633ff, Second Stasimon, Strophe 1 (431 BC) [tr. Luschnig (2007)]

  4. 🌙 Day 2 of Ramadan…
    Ramadan still finds a way to our hearts, waking joy despite everything.
    My children watch the hanging lights and ask:
    “Did we decorate our home in Beit Hanoun? Was Ramadan this beautiful?”
    I tell them: yes… it was even more beautiful.
    Gaza once shone with light and joy.
    Today we celebrate with what we have —
    and carry a deep longing in our hearts. 🤍
    Make your support a light for my children ✨

  5. "One thing I ask from the Lord,
    this only do I seek:
    that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,
    to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
    and to seek him in his temple."

    Psalm 27:4 #Bible #longing #worship

  6. Scene

    the night sky, once our mirror,
    enveloping two distant souls in joy,
    has become a dusty backdrop,
    while the stars, like stage daggers,
    tear my heart apart,
    yet leave me alive.

  7. Serious tired of office politics and dramas and yet you cannot fight back? Well, here's a soundtrack to break it away the fustrations. It is another attempt to combine dance vocal and video making background music.

  8. A quotation from Edna St. Vincent Millay

    And what are you that, missing you,

  12. ANTINOË – The Fold
    eternal-terror.com/?p=73987

    RELEASE YEAR: 2025BAND URL: antinoe.bandcamp.com/

    Far removed from the world of metal music yet infinitely darker, more haunting, and relentlessly bleaker is this mesmerizing output titled The Fold by the Spanish artist known as Antinoë, which is the solo vehicle of the immensely talented neo-classical pianist and vocalist Teresa Marraco. Although she does have black metal […]

  14. The fourth…

    As many of you who have followed this blog site for a while will know, my bestest soulmate unfortunately passed away on July 4th 2025. It's been a little over 4 months now, and I still miss her like crazy. I always knew that she was special, that she gave me so much more than I could ever try to give back to her. But, I tried with all my power, abilities, money, and love... But, as time without her passes by, I realize more and more that she did so much more than I thought! So many things where I feel I may have taken things for granted, just because her intuition was just right and she knew my needs even better than I did. And, of course, I tried my best to provide to all her needs and wants as well. I may have spoiled her a bit, but now I wonder if it was enough... It's been a few days since it was the 4th. As I am a night owl, I am often awake during the night, enjoying the calm and darkness. But the night of July 3 going on 4, plagued by pain and trauma, I was awake with Arwen, and I saw her struggles and uneasiness. It hurt me to see her like that, and I knew I had to call the vet ASAP in the morning. I wrote a blog that night (Will this be it?), fearing that I was going to lose her. And, unfortunately, I was right, and she passed away with my mum and me at her side around 9:30 that Friday morning. 😢 […]

  16. "'The days are coming,' declares the Sovereign Lord, 'when I will send a famine through the land – not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord.'"

    Amos 8:11 #Bible #knowledge #longing

  17. This black-and-white photo captures the sleek, modern aesthetics of an Apple store in Singapore. The reflective surfaces and bold patterns create a sense of longing and anticipation as customers ascend the escalator

  18. An example of the human impulse to leave a mark. The building's unique surface invites signatures, turning a mundane facade into a canvas of fleeting presence.

  19. I’m loving all these #InsomniaJam2025 submissions.

    Like this poem that was just submitted by GhostandShadows. It perfectly describes late night daydreams.
