Mini Terrarium

I’ve been feeling a little off since the end of 2025 and the beginning of 2026, so I decided to enroll in a terrarium-making class.

This new hobby has a way of calming me on days when my mind feels like a tightly tangled ball of string and my body like an old, dusty teddy bear left forgotten for twenty years.

There’s something amazing about recreating a tiny piece of nature—mimicking it, containing it, and placing it inside an environment that isn’t quite its own. Yet somehow, it still manages to thrive.

Every time I look at it, I feel as though I’m stepping into that small world myself. In an instant, peace and serenity seem to flow through my veins.

Sometimes I think that, as a family, we are like terrarium plants—thriving quietly in a world that isn’t quite ours, yet managing to bloom in our own small, beautiful way.
