Today, I ask life to be a blessing and a necessary abandonment so that what remains of me from now on is my redemption, so that tomorrows may welcome and receive me as another, whole. So that the next page is blank, and the heart, filled. So that among my mistakes, there is also my own forgiveness. Among my tight spots, a horizon where I honor my possibilities.

This is why I write, as a prayer, to ignite light, as a plea for absolution of my own conscience; as a plea for the renunciation of fears that do not define me. Now is the moment to reclaim my wings. This is why I write, as if here I could confess and remind myself of what I can be when I feel free and love; and what I can be when I liberate myself in what I write… 🙏🏾❤️
