We live in a world that controls us in countless ways, tightening its grip as time goes by. This control often sneaks past our awareness, slipping into the subconscious.

Then, one day, we wake up and find ourselves filled with regret—for the life we've lived and the choices we've made, or perhaps the ones we never made at all.

We ask ourselves: Why did we do that? Why did we react this way?
The good news is, there are answers to these questions.

Our only option is to fight back. We do this by choosing our own reality, by learning about ourselves. We reclaim all the pieces of who we are and patiently glue them back together.

The impact of our choice is enormous - as it extends beyond our personal lives; it ripples out to the collective. From our parents to our ancestors, we carry generational trauma that unconsciously shapes us.

Our ancestors didn't know better, and there is nothing we can do about that. We have to honor them and thank them for their enormous effort to bring us into life no matter what.

We hold the power to change, to break the cycle, and to avoid further harm. For them, for us, and for future generations. Right here, right now.

We possess the ability to alter the lens through which we view and experience the world, each other, and ourselves.

And that change starts from within.
