We are products of the circumstances that surround us. Shaped by experiences that often bring either obstacles or moments of peace. In this piece, the ebb and flow of transitions are constant, shifting seamlessly from moments of reflection to tension and back again. Situations evolve and solidify, some with clear direction while others remain ambiguous, emerging from both internal contemplation and external influences.
