This is so beautiful. I’m sure it wasn’t easy to write. Reading it sparked so many thoughts and emotions in me that I don’t know how to articulate just yet. So I’ll just say - thank you for writing ❤️

Very well written Ayush. Within just a few lines you took me out of my room amidst parakeets and jungles and complexities.

I had hoped to, but never began writing like not caring. Reading you made me feel that I want to be able to write like this.
