Fowk’ll aye be peedie by a brae or a muntain.

People’ll always be tiny compared to a hill or a mountain.

A monochrome photograph showing two young men on a hill. They are in the distance and look very small against the clear sky. Beyond them, and to the left, is another, somewhat taller, hill.

The changing of the seasons is also a good time to change yourself.
Pick up a new hobby.
Grow antlers if it suits you.
Break free of the chrysalis that is your human form and emerge as a swirling cloud of ravens, and disappear croaking into the darkness.

Imagine it. No toys forged in distant factories, no screens glowing with borrowed dreams. Just 52 rectangles of faded cardboard, edges curled from a thousand shuffles by hands before his. In a life stripped to essentials, imagination is the ultimate wealth.

At nine years old, his world is a frayed jacket passed down from an uncle lost to the snows, boots mended with sinew, and that single, sacred treasure: a battered deck of playing cards, scavenged from a tourist's discard pile in Leh.

No toys forged in distant factories, no screens glowing with borrowed dreams. Just 52 rectangles of faded cardboard, edges curled from a thousand shuffles by hands before his. The kings and queens stare back with imperial indifference, their crowns mocking the barren horizon. But in Tenzin's grip, they're alchemy.

One card missing—the three of hearts, torn away in a storm. He doesn't mourn it; absence is a lesson too. In this vast emptiness, where possessions are burdens carried on weary backs, that deck is freedom. It fits in a pocket, weighs nothing, yet holds infinities: games to banish boredom, stories to trade with strangers, even fuel for the fire if winter turns cruel.

Come dusk, as the family gathers around a dung fire, he transforms the deck into music. Pressing the stack to his lips, he blows gentle breaths through the gaps, coaxing a reedy hum that echoes the Himalayan winds. It's not a harmonica, but in his world, it sings lullabies of forgotten valleys. Changthang means Eastern Flat Land; it is the land of nomads located in the east of Leh on the Chinese border.

"I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again."

-Lewis Carroll

snow on the ground in the front followed by snow covered bushes. There is icy water between rows of bushes and mountains in the background.

A b&w photograph of a tree taken from below stretching up to the sky. It's pretty bare with some spindly branches and no leaves.

"If I fall, I'll fall five feet four inches forward in the fight for freedom. I'm not backing off."

Fannie Lou Hamer

In her landmark speech Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired, Hamer recalled receiving brutal beatings for attempting to register to vote.

True to her word, she never backed off.
