There are so many small moments that feel like glimmers of magic in my life,” London-based Instagram poet and artist Cailin Hargreaves tells us. “One of the simplest, yet most profound, is sitting at my desk with a warm cup of tea, looking out at the world as it rushes by below. In those moments, I feel deeply connected to life itself—alive, aware, and grateful that I’m here, part of this vast, beautiful experience we call life.” 

Another, she says, is the feeling of her son moving inside her belly. “It’s a sensation that fills me with awe, knowing how much love I already have for him before he’s even arrived.” And then, there’s the golden hour. “When the sun begins to set, my entire apartment glows in shades of orange and yellow, as if it’s being painted by the light itself. In those moments, I feel bathed in warmth, both from the sun and from within. It’s a time when everything feels peaceful, when the day winds down, and I can breathe deeply, appreciating the softness of the moment.”
