Awakening is not a grand arrival, but a gentle unveiling. It is the quiet recognition that much of what you have carried — fears, labels, borrowed beliefs — is not you. One by one, these layers fall away, not through force, but through the simple act of seeing clearly. What remains is not a new self, but the self that has always been here, unmasked and unafraid. Awakening asks for courage, for presence, and for trust in your own unfolding. When you release who you are not, you step into the truth of who you are.
