I see my future being alone in the storm.

I see my future being alone in the storm.

To be Truly Alone today, my whisk is a pen. I stir words into existence, creating a literary roux. The blank page is my canvas, and ink flows like melted chocolate. I write of flavors and textures, of journeys and revelations.

As a writer, I explore the nuances of taste. How does a strawberry feel against the tongue? What symphony of spices lingers after a curry? I delve into metaphors, comparing a well-seared steak to a love letter — both require patience and precision. In my quiet moments,

“Exploring different cultures and experiencing their unique people, food, and traditions is truly a blessing!”

I imagine a grand feast. The table stretches beyond the horizon, laden with stories and sustenance. Guests arrive — characters from forgotten novels, poets who speak in stanzas of saffron and cinnamon.

That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither —  whatever they do prospers.

And there, at the head of the table, I sit. Chef and writer, creator and curator. My apron is stained with ink, my fingers bear the scars of countless knife cuts. But I am whole.

For in this embrace of flavors and words, I find solace. The kitchen and the study, the stove and the Laptop — they are my dual canvases. And as I blend ingredients and sentences, I realize that art has no boundaries.
