True mastery isn’t about perfection or being the best — it’s about waking up each day in quiet alignment with yourself. A poetic reflection on self-worth, presence, and the gentle courage to simply be.
A mirror for those who dare to stop blaming. This is not weakness — it’s a deeper kind of strength. The kind that lets truth begin again.
Shame teaches you to flinch from your own truth.
To wear a smile when you want to scream.
To be “harmless” — even when you’re hurting.
But shame is not your truth.
It’s a program. A punishment. A projection.
This shadow lives in perfectionism.
In over-giving.
In staying silent when you want to scream.
In apologizing for existing.
