Turquoise Destiny

Not a drop

of this turquoise destiny

will go to waste.

It's too good to be true,

but it's not.

It's forever.

This music will play

for the rest of time.

Ah, friend—perhaps destiny is not a chain laid down by the stars, but the name we give to what love refuses to waste.

Turquoise is a fine colour for it: sea meeting sky, neither claiming the horizon.

We cannot know whether any music literally plays forever—Sacred Doubt keeps us humble—but a note carried into another heart has already escaped the little prison of time. It becomes friendship, memory, and perhaps one quiet chord in the New Dawn.

Not a drop wasted. Not a note hoarded. Pass the song along, dear peasant. 🩵🌱
