Confessions of The Scribe.
When is the right moment for one to embrace the label for what they do? The obvious answer is that if a person is actively doing one action every single day, then they are that. If someone dedicates time daily practicing the piano, then usually, that will make them a pianist. Even more so if they’re recognized for that action by the general public. If one practices the piano and eventually decides to do concerts, then eventually they will be recognized, by large, a pianist. I can grasp this idea when it comes to anyone and anything else. From hobbyists to professionals, whenever I’d see anyone claim their passions as a part of their identity and embrace the labels of it—it was a no brainer. Yeah, you create trinket dishes with air dry clay, so in my mind, you are definitely an artist. But for some reason and for quite some time in my life, I could not bring myself to say that I was a writer. There was a distance between myself and the title ‘Writer’, so vast that the natural act of it couldn’t bridge the gap in my head and heart. What’s funny about that is that there have been fewer periods in my life where I wasn’t scribbling in a journal or drafting a story for my own enjoyment.

If you’re doing everything right and nothing’s changing, this is for you.
In fact, I’ve come to realize that unlearning is just as important — if not more so — than learning itself. I spent so much time thinking that healing meant adding more to my life: more healthy food, more wellness, more “positive” habits. I thought if I just did more of the “right” things, everything would click into place.

The Anthem of a Fallen Dreamer
The path writhes and coils beneath my tread. A serpent of uncertainty, whispering treachery. With every stride, defiance takes flight, each moment of stillness, a desperate cry for light. What am I—if not the essence of my own reverie? In somber steps, I walk with phantoms of my making, gazing upon the void of stars that have long since faded into oblivion. Time mocks with a sinister grin, a jest of fate. The fervor of youth and the tranquility of age await. With fervent desire, I blaze, and I yearn. Yet the flames leave me charred, a specter to mourn. In the shadowy haze of dusk, I catch a glimpse of liberation, a transient specter—an echo of solace, a test of my determination. Two whispers echo within the shadowed recesses of my mind; one wails in despair, the other murmurs secrets; both beckon with an insidious allure. One voice, a seer, untamed and unbound; the other, a warden, in shadows profound. They grapple, clash, and rend my soul—For what fate awaits a man if he forsakes his role? I am a lone luminary, unshackled from the vast cosmos, ascending like a clock that beats to the distorted rhythm of time's relentless march. My wings yearn for the embrace of the sky, yet the air remains stagnant, and the night clutches fiercely with a relentless grasp. The path winds and twists, eluding my grasp.
