Almost three years have passed, and looking back, I realize how much has changed. Piece by piece, I had to rebuild myself from the fragments. These cracks remain – they cannot be erased or covered. But life goes on.
I want my life to be filled with joy, new achievements, and purpose. One of the most meaningful aspects of this purpose is helping others because I know how hard it can be to return to normal life.
Together with Olga, we organize creative workshops to support those who need it the most. Creative work helps restore inner resources, bringing peace and inspiration. This has become my mission.
What was once just a hobby is now my work and the meaning of my life. Through creativity, I not only heal myself but also give hope to others: you can do it too!
