Unexpected Joy at the Most Unlikely Moment

Today, I saw my cousin’s car parked just outside the supermarket.
It felt so surreal, like a brief escape from my usual routine of job hunting and part-time work.
I haven’t seen her in years, yet seeing her drive made me realize how life keeps moving forward even when I feel stuck.
Sometimes, it’s the small things—like a distant rumble of an engine—that remind me to keep going through these gray days.
Just a fleeting moment of happiness in this never-ending search.
