My life fascinates me.

I’m able to look back at my life without attaching any past version of myself to who I am now. I’ve lived through so many different versions of myself, and it’s incredible to see how each one brought me here. The last few months, especially, have taught me so much about who I am.

I used to search for anything that could distract me from sitting alone with my thoughts. Now, I’ve filled my life with healing, understanding, passion, and intention, to the point where I’ve experienced true silence for the first time. I'm not running from anything anymore.

The past three years were filled with trauma, losing myself, hitting my lowest lows, and still experiencing my highest highs. Each year felt like its own chapter, both physically and mentally, each one shaped by different lessons, different pain, and different growth. Looking back, I can see my mental state reflected in the smallest details, the color of my hair, the way I dressed, the energy I carried. Every version tells a story.

One of the most important things I’ve learned is the value of protecting yourself and your blessings. Not everything needs to be shared, especially with the internet. People can’t disrupt what they don’t know, and not everyone deserves access to your journey or your growth.

It’s beautiful to recognize how confident I feel in myself now, especially when I remember how much validation I once needed from others just to feel worthy or seen.

I’ve found a deep sense of peace in my life, and I found it through solitude. I truly met myself there. I used to believe I knew who I was, but after the last five months of intentional work, I realize I didn’t and maybe I still don’t fully. But what matters is that I can see the progress and I can feel the transformation.

And for that, I’m incredibly proud of myself.
