Life's trials shall fracture your being, a truth none can shield you from. Solitude, too, bears a yearning that etches wounds upon the soul. Love is your calling, and emotions are the colours that paint your existence. You've been placed on this earth to expose your heart to risks, to dance with vulnerability. You're meant to be consumed by life's current. And when the inevitable arrives— when you're shattered, betrayed, abandoned, wounded, or death's presence looms— find solace beneath the shade of an apple tree. Hear the apples fall, a melody of fleeting existence. Remind yourself you've tasted as much as your time allowed.
