When Fear Whispers Harmonic Minor Melodies.

I am 35 days away from what will most likely be the biggest madness of my entire time alive on this planet, and this is one of those nights when the fear mongering inside whispers words of tragedy. I am leaving home again, away from the reality I was forced to stay stuck in, like a clock hanging on a wall for decades, just letting time pass regardless of whether dreams come true or not.

It was liberating yet sad in a way, as if the man I was meant to become was in a fight with the boy I once was to let the new version take control.

And in that moment, I realized something.

The past wasn’t real anymore.

It was just a memory fading into dust.

I had grown into my full form. Independent. Sharpened. Confident. Ready to take over the world.

If you hesitate, the door will remain shut forever. If you wait for the “right moment,” you will watch as others carve their names into the walls while you remain outside, waiting for certainty that will never come.

You hate your job, but you don’t leave.

You hate your life, but you don’t change.

You tell yourself you’re smarter than the bird.

Are you?

Most people never see any castles. They walk through life on autopilot, unaware of the great heights they could reach.

But even among those who do see them, most choose the smallest, easiest castles.

Why?
Because not all castles are the same.
