The Lineage of Healing
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting — it means honoring the pain, breaking the silence, and choosing a new narrative. Generational trauma may echo through bloodlines, but so can love, strength, and renewal. The story doesn’t have to end how it began — we get to rewrite...
The Hunger I Don’t Understand…
I do not know what war is called, I only know my tummy growls, A sound that’s louder in the night, Than all the bombs that fall like owls. I do not know why Mama cries, Her hands shake when she hides the bread, She tells me, “Sleep, it’s almost dawn,” But I can’t...
