Hello, new day…

In the autumn of Antalya, as if it were the year 1960, resembling my mother’s youth, I hold on to life with small hopes that fit in the palm of my hand, wrapped in the same nostalgia. All this time, I have known that grand dreams and great expectations often leave behind disappointment. That’s why I have devoted my faith to the happiness found in little joys. And I have never been wrong. Perhaps I never soared into the sky, but I knew I didn’t have the strength to watch my falls turn into wreckage. For this reason, I have always welcomed even the happiest moments of my life with a gentle smile.

I know that a person can stay standing with just small moments of happiness. In the coolness of a breeze, in the cycle of a falling leaf, in the sincerity of a smile… Small dreams are enough for me. Because sometimes, living is not about chasing grand aspirations but about holding onto those tiny sparks of light in the palm of your hands.

That’s why I choose to start again every morning. The first beam of light falling on the sea at dawn, the silly movement of a stray cat on the street, the warm scent of a cup of coffee filling my soul… I embrace them all as gifts. Because happiness is not always hidden in great victories, but in those small moments where we touch life with love. And by collecting those moments, I create a new spring for myself every day.

That’s why I never stop hoping. Life may be a road full of ups and downs, but as I overcome its obstacles, I am learning to see the beauty along the way. Even if I fall, I stand up again with determination and patience. And once I rise, I run—sometimes I grow tired, but I keep moving forward. Over time, I have realized that the secret to life is not always in achieving bigger things but in seeing what we already have with greater love.

For this reason, I welcome each day as an opportunity, each moment as a gift. Every morning, I wake up with the feeling of spring blooming inside me. Because, in reality, we don’t need great reasons for new beginnings. And that is exactly why I greet each day anew, with hope and love.
