Have you ever closed your eyes and imagined a world where everything just feels right? A place where you don’t carry the weight of stress, where people treat each other with kindness, and where every breath you take fills you with calm? I like to think that somewhere—maybe in another universe—that life exists. And in that universe, I live by the ocean.
Imagine waking up to the sound of waves gently greeting the shore, the salty breeze brushing past your skin like a soft whisper. The sun rises slowly, not in a rush, casting a golden shimmer over the calm waters. There’s no alarm clock here—just the rhythm of nature, calling you to exist, to be, not to do.
In this world, there is no stress. No rush. No pressure to be anything other than yourself. People don’t compare. No one’s voice is louder than another’s. Everyone walks with open hearts and gentle words. We look each other in the eye and truly see one another. No bullying. No judgement. Just understanding.
In this peaceful world, we treat kindness like currency—freely given, never expected in return. We speak softly, listen deeply, and celebrate each other’s joy without envy. Positivity isn’t just an idea—it’s the way we live. A way of being. A way of breathing.
When I close my eyes in this alternate universe, I feel peace not just around me—but within me. It’s the kind of peace that wraps around your soul like a warm blanket. The kind that hums through your chest when you finally realize: You are enough, just as you are.
There’s no need to run. No need to prove. Just being here is beautiful.
And maybe—just maybe—this universe isn’t so far away. Maybe it lives inside each of us, waiting to be nurtured. Maybe the more we dream it, the more we live it—even in small ways, every day.
So today, I’ll sit by the ocean in my mind. I’ll take a breath. I’ll choose peace. And I’ll carry that little piece of my alternate universe into this one—with kindness, with love, and with hope.
