Before I poured my soul into poetry, I harbored a fervent energy that urged me to venture into realms unknown. It beckoned me to undertake endeavors that elevated my spirit, that tore me open at the seams, and ignited a flame within me, allowing me to dwell within myself without longing for more.

At last, my fingers met the page, and in that moment, I discovered a profound truth: bliss does not reside in escape, but in immersion, in acceptance, and in embodiment. Many wander through life as strangers to themselves, never truly embracing their own essence. It’s imperative to unlock the secrets of your own being, so you do not become lost in the crowd of the unfamiliar.

In the act of creation, I found the pathway to self-discovery, a journey that led me to the core of my existence. It is in this embrace of my own truth, in the unearthing of my deepest desires and fears, that I found liberation.

May you too, find the courage to delve into the depths of your soul, to unravel the mysteries within, and to walk as a companion to your own spirit. For it is in this union that true fulfillment is found, and the echoes of your being resonate with the harmony of your own truth.
