Breezes Journals

What doesn’t fit in your travel bag, lives here.

The Breeze Journal

Style in motion. Thoughts with a passport.

This is where the mood lives.
The stories behind the scent. The mindset behind the movement.
Style, memory, and travel—written the way we wear them: with intention.

The Breeze Journal is your inside look at how we think, design, and live.
Not just collections, but conversations.
Not just looks, but the logic—and the feeling—behind them.

With over 60 pieces and counting, it’s less about updates, more about understanding.
Less “how to,” more why now.

If you feel something, keep reading.
If you don’t—
That’s fine.
Some Breezes take time to hit.

The concept of true happiness has been a debated topic for centuries. While some people believe that money is the key to happiness, others argue that it is simply not possible. So, what is the truth? Can money buy happiness?

The answer is not as simple as it may seem. While money can indeed buy some momentary pleasures, it cannot buy true happiness. True happiness comes from within, from having a sense of purpose, meaningful connections with others, and a sense of contentment with life. Money can help to provide some of the external factors that can contribute to happiness, such as a comfortable home and secure job, but it cannot replace the inner fulfilment that comes from having a life filled with meaning and joy.

In addition, money can be a source of stress and discontentment. People who are solely focused on accumulating wealth often experience feelings of dissatisfaction and emptiness. This is because money doesn’t bring true inner peace and joy. It can be a handy tool to use in life, but it can’t replace the feelings of fulfilment that come from living a life of wisdom and compassion.

At the end of the day, true happiness comes from within. It is not something that can be bought or exchanged. Instead, it comes from having meaningful relationships, pursuing your passions and dreams, and having a sense of contentment with life. Money can be a helpful tool, but it can never replace the joy that comes from having a life filled with love and fulfilment.
