Anatomy of becoming

Anatomy of Becoming

Nobody teaches us how to become ourselves.

We learn silence before honesty.
We confuse hope with survival.
We mistake strangers for home, and home for a cage.
Then one day, we wake up wondering when we stopped recognizing the person staring back at us.

Anatomy of Becoming is a collection of philosophical essays exploring identity, family, grief, hope, memory, and the quiet ways people change. Not to provide answers, but to ask the questions we spend a lifetime avoiding.
