There are some losses you never get over. You only learn to live around them.
She Told Me She’ll Always Be With Me
It’s been 10 years. A whole decade since I lost her.
Yet somehow, not a single day goes by when I don’t feel her in my heart.
Every joy, every heartbreak, every small victory—I still turn, in my heart, to tell her. My mother. My safe place. My forever strength.
In today’s fast-paced world, shortcuts are everywhere.
Pre-mixes, instant solutions, and ready-to-use products promise convenience and speed.
But have you ever paused to think about what we lose in the process?

Baking powder is one of the most essential leavening agents in baking, especially when it comes to cookies. But what exactly does baking powder do to cookies?

If you’ve ever wondered how baking powder affects the texture, flavour, and overall structure of your cookies, this guide will give you all the answers!
Did you know that cupcakes date back to the 19th century? Originally baked in teacups (hence the name), these little delights were a revolutionary way to bake cakes faster and more efficiently. Over time, vanilla cupcakes became a classic favourite, offering a simple yet irresistible taste that appeals to all ages.
Every Morning We Are Born Again: Embracing the Gift of a New Day
Life is a journey of countless beginnings. Each morning offers us a unique opportunity to start afresh, leaving behind the worries and mistakes of yesterday. The wise words of Buddha—“Every morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.”—remind us of the power of the present moment and the endless potential each new day holds.
Imagine waking up and feeling the warmth of the first rays of sunlight brushing against your skin. That golden light carries the promise of renewal, reminding us that yesterday’s failures, regrets, or missed chances are in the past. Today is your clean slate, your chance to rewrite your story, one action at a time.
It’s easy to get stuck in the past or worry about the future, but life is lived in the now. What we choose to do today, this very moment defines the path ahead. Do you want to chase your dreams, nurture your relationships, or take one step closer to the person you want to become? Today is the perfect day to do just that.
Remember, small actions matter. Whether it’s taking a moment to meditate, reaching out to someone you care about, or simply starting your day with gratitude, these little steps shape your life.
Starting fresh doesn’t mean you need to erase your past completely. Instead, carry its lessons with you as you move forward. Every morning is a chance to try again, to be kinder to yourself and others, and to strive for growth.
What if you viewed challenges not as setbacks but as opportunities to rise stronger? Today is your stage—step onto it with courage and determination.
As you close your day, reflect on what you accomplished and what you learned. Be proud of the effort you put in. And as you lay down to rest, remind yourself that the sun will rise again tomorrow, bringing with it another opportunity to begin anew.
The beauty of life lies in its constant renewal. Embrace the gift of every morning, for what you do today truly matters most.
By living intentionally and embracing each morning as a fresh start, you align yourself with the rhythm of life—a rhythm that celebrates growth, forgiveness, and the infinite potential of now. So, as the sun rises tomorrow, step into the day with purpose. Your best self is waiting.

There’s something magical about the holiday season—it brings us together, fills our homes with warmth, and, of course, tempts us with the aroma of baked goodies.
