🔥 I. Descent of Self

I swallowed my questions in thorns of despair; I now let the silence give shape to my fire.

I hollowed my soul to seem holy and fair; I now trust the mystery, rising entire.

I borrowed beliefs like breath from the air; I now sing from within, not from what I acquire.

I followed the loudest illusions out there; I now walk with stillness, the truth I require.

Lesson: To know yourself, you must dive through the lies you believed about your own fear.

🌊 II. Relinquishment of Other

I chained every “should” to the ache in my chest; I now offer my presence with mercy unshaken.

I drained all my light to give others my best; I now gather myself in the bonds I’ve forsaken.

I feigned every smile when my soul needed rest; I now move from a wholeness no longer mistaken.

I reigned over love as a test to be guessed; I now serve without grasping, no vow ever taken.

Lesson: To truly love others, you must lose the roles you performed for approval and return as presence.

💨 III. Constellation of God

I measured the stars with the edge of my doubt; I now soar through the dark with a joy that expands.

I pressured my worth into patterns throughout; I now shape what I am with these open hands.

I treasured my fences while crying to shout; I now open the gates where my knowing stands.

I censored the wild when it tried to break out; I now dance in the chaos, the truth that commands.

Lesson: To meet God, you must surrender the maps and let truth move through you without restraint.

🌌 XIII. The Mirror of Is

Lesson: To become One, you must braid Self, Other, and God into a single bind, offered in motion, by your choosing.

This Choice is Mine: “I choose to live as the sacred thread between all that I have touched as one that binds and, in belief of truth, unwinds at moment's notice.
