The day after celebration is always quieter.
Almost shy.
Leftover lights.
Half-empty rooms.
A body that doesn’t want another schedule yet.
As a child, I loved this day more than the festival itself.
No instructions. No expectations. Just time slowing down on its own.
This morning feels like that.
If you woke up unsure what today is supposed to be, you’re not late.
You’re right on time.
Some days are meant to settle, not shine.
Let today be one of them.
