The Volcano Within
There comes a moment when you can’t hold it in anymore. Years of lessons, mistakes, and quiet awakenings begin to rise. You’ve kept the lid on, tried to stay composed but the soul doesn’t do polite.
When it’s ready, it erupts. Not to destroy, but to create.
Lava becomes new land. Pain becomes purpose. Experience becomes wisdom.
Every truth you’ve lived through adds to the heat until one day, you stop choking on the smoke and start breathing light.
That’s what the eruption feels like messy, raw, unstoppable… but real.
And that’s how the soul learns.
Each eruption reshapes the landscape of who you are. Even when the fire cools, those gems of truth remain packed into your next chapter, waiting to shine again. “Every life adds another piece to the great jigsaw of the soul.”
What truth are you uncovering today?
