Understanding the impermanence of life has shifted the way I see happiness. It no longer lies in grand events or constant highs—but in quiet moments, inner peace, and the small, steady things that keep me anchored.
This list is a gentle reminder of what brings me back to myself. Some of these moments happen around me, others arise within. Yet each one holds meaning, no matter how subtle. They are the quiet threads of stillness and clarity I turn to when I seek balance, presence, and truth.
