The Fragment
Grey ink on white cardstock. The kind of message that feels like a hand on your shoulder, or a breath held too long finally released.
It doesn’t accuse.
It reminds.
That your pace is not a problem.
Just… mismapped.

Reflections from the Weaver
This is one of the hardest stories to unlearn:
That you’re late. Behind. Failing to catch up.
I’ve lived in that pressure cooker.
Where every undone task and every comparison becomes a ticking accusation.
But I realized – most of us are sprinting to meet clocks we didn’t set.
Expectations inherited, imposed, or simply misaligned.
This fragment is a gentle rebellion.
A reminder that your timeline isn’t wrong.
It’s just yours.
And that’s enough.
