I finished a whole cup of coffee before it went cold and felt absurdly lucky

Dear Delyara, Nothing interrupted me. That was all. No child shouting from another room. No work call. No missing item. No app notification. No “while you’re there.” Just one full hot cup from first sip to last, and I could actually feel how unusual completion has become in my days. That’s the sadness of it and also the strange beauty. What used to be invisible can now feel almost ceremonial. A hot drink. A closed door. Ten quiet minutes. A body arriving fully to a chair. When life gets this layered, very small mercies start glowing.
