The Quiet of Surrender

There’s a strange harmony in stepping into the unknown. At first, it trembles—frightening because it’s uncharted, because the mind craves maps and plans. But once you let go, once you stop gripping so tightly, there’s a peace that floods in. The road opens, the sky widens, and life flows—unforced, unplanned, unburdened. Sitting passenger-side, watching the river slip past, I wasn’t thinking of destinations. Just the quiet miracle of being here, in this moment, letting it carry me forward.

Softly So

The unknown calls, yet softly so,

a peaceful tide, a steady flow.

No maps to hold, no plans to keep,

just present breath, and waters deep.

With Grace & Ink,

Mai
