Setting a proper intention is one of the first steps in the healing process. In this personal piece, I share a profound journey from a state of obscurity and confusion to a place of clarity and purpose by following Intention’s Guiding Light. It is part of a poem from Metamorphosis.

The poem delves deep into the conflict of emotions we often feel— from moments of self-doubt to the reassuring belief in one’s worth. It embodies the strength of the human spirit to choose positivity even in the face of adversity. The poem emphasizes the power of choice—choosing love over fear, light over darkness, and self-belief over external influences.

It’s a testament to the human spirit’s resilience, where I, as the poet, declare my autonomy over my emotions and the path to healing and self-discovery. By blocking out the world around me and taking full responsibility for my own well-being, I have been able to make tremendous advances in my own healing journey. I hope this poem inspires you to do the same.
