We were all born into the game of life—this strange race of comparison and achievement, where stars and grades and gold stickers slowly grew into promotions, possessions, and polished images. We played it because that’s what everyone else seemed to be doing. Until one day, often quietly, a whisper rises from somewhere deep within: Is this really it? What the world calls a crisis is often something much more sacred. A soft unraveling. A courageous bloom.

This is the moment the current returns. That pulsing force we once gave away—to status, to screens, to strangers’ opinions—begins to hum again inside us. And once it starts moving, you can’t really stop it. It’s not here to destroy your life; it’s here to return you to it. This little book is an offering to that current. A mirror for those beginning to bloom.
