That's how it all started. With a bright red cover and a few misspelled sentences. I was writing irregularly, almost always when I was sick. Joy makes you fly, distracts you, takes you away with it. Pain, on the other hand, lands you. It stops you. It forces you to look at yourself.

Writing did something to me.
Emotions flowed with the words.
My hands moved, and the tension slowly melted.
I felt more intimate with myself —
as if I could finally take myself by the hand.

I grew up inside a culture of judgment. A culture in which the phrase "this is not to be done" resonated as a boundary, and in which every out-of-place gesture carried with it the echo of a silent question, "What will people say?"

When I began to explore the topic of family inheritance, the first word that came to mind was: money .
Not because I'm interested in them in a materialist way, but because money has always been a concern for me, a priority, a constant thought .

When we talk about self-knowledge, we often think of the present: what we feel, what we wish to change, who we want to become.
But the truth is that everything that has been passed on to us also lives inside us, sometimes silently, sometimes overtly. The spoken words, but especially the unspoken ones. The looks, the silences, the expectations and disappointments.

In a world like ours, it's easy to lose sight of ourselves.
Then reading can become a big STOP.
A stop sign in front of which we can make our intuition resonate.
Getting out of the mind, letting our emotions touch us. Begin to let something come out of us, and not just encompass external information.

Reading is often the first deep encounter with who you truly are. Learn how to pick books that touch your inner world and gently shift your perspective.

Because to me, words are instruments of discovery.
Phrases that strike a chord, that resonate deep within, that open new paths — they deserve to be brought into the light.
They deserve to be shared.

If we are lucky, the first step in the journey of self-knowledge begins when we are young.

It is in the family that the first foundations are laid:

"Children begin to build a sense of self not only through what they say about themselves, but mostly through what they feel is allowed or forbidden."

The first step toward change.
