What Whispers in the Dark: Can You Hear the Secrets Your Shadow Self Keeps?
Imagine the dark…
…not as an abyss but as a canvas. It’s where the secrets we keep from ourselves swirl in silence.
It's easy, too easy, to travel through life with the noise turned up, the bright lights blinding us from the truth that only whispers in the shadows. But what if those whispers hold the map to our liberation? Why should you care? Because the key to self-mastery doesn't jingle in the sunlit uplands, but jangles quietly in the darkness.
