“The New York sidewalk led us along a little corner park rimmed with yellow-orange and violet pansies that seemed to be smiling, their faces upturned, and past a bagel shop that smelled of sesame and salt, delicious warm air. We passed an empty wine bar with a pink chandelier, whimsical and dim inside, and a neighborhood diner with its blue neon sign huge and lit up, little white line-cook hats—the city seemed in my vision like a multifaceted gem, spectacular. I wished I could keep everything I witnessed like a photograph, to forever hold this electric aliveness. The colors of the flowers and the clothing were crisp and rosy, hyper-bright against the subdued sun-drenched pigments of the streets and the brick buildings, all seeming faded, softer than real. Pops of coral and red—a scarf, a lady’s lips—were pops of life.”

It's all about considering what stories could be told if they had voices of their own.”
― Lauren Lola, An Absolute Mind

And in the dense grief, we find the ocean and its shores,
A shell on the sand, holding pearls inside.
O Heart, keep breaking,

This is how we sense, the stars in our eyes,
For in the shell is the essence,
In the grief, it's faraway light.”
― Jayita Bhattacharjee
