Glimmers

 Friday, April, 4th, 2025

They say the opposite of triggers are glimmers. Those little moments where you find peace, where you notice the beauty of the world and of your life. Those glimmers are my saving boat. A stranger's smile. The way the light hits the water and makes it look so beautiful. The sky being painted in pastel colours at sunrise. The bus driver seeing me run and waiting for me. A comforting song playing just at the right moment. The sun hitting a glass surface just right and creating a rainbow on the ground. 

I notice those moments and for a second everything is well. For a second there is no sadness, no anger, no confusion. Just peace, at least a glimpse of it. For a second all is well. And maybe one day it will.
