As a lover of nature, it’s the smallest gifts that undo me.
All my life, supari had existed only as something dry and forgotten — brittle pieces in tiny bowls, stripped of story. But seeing a fresh bunch hanging quietly on the tree stopped me in my tracks. I felt a sudden, childlike euphoria!
I never knew suparis were born orange — warm, glowing, almost celebratory — before fading into their familiar monotone. Color first. Then simplicity. Vibrance before restraint.
Standing there, I realised how quietly nature teaches us everything.
We arrive bright and full of promise. We soften. We shed excess. We become quieter versions of ourselves. And somewhere in that journey, beauty deepens!!!
