Life never comes with instructions.
It never pauses to tell us when a chapter is ending,
and it never warns us when a new one begins.
We grow through moments we don't understand,
through heartbreaks we think we won't survive,
and through decisions we never felt ready to make.
As children, we only wished for the future.
As adults, we quietly mourn the past.
Somewhere in between,
we forget that life was never meant to be rushed-
it was meant to be lived.
This book is not just about growing up.
It's about remembering, breaking, healing, and becoming.
It is about the dreams we chase,
the realities we learn to face,
the people who help us stand,
and the quiet voice inside us that says:
"Keep going. You're not done yet."
