Even now, as I finish Nobody’s Words, revisiting pieces from earlier in the process brings me back to who I was then. Some pieces still resonate, but others feel completely obsolete, like echoes of a person I no longer recognize. This act of reflection is like meeting previous versions of myself, each one offering a deeper understanding of how far I’ve come.
Reflecting on past writing motivates me to grow, to see what I thought I knew then versus what I know now. It reminds me that who I am today will not be who I am in five years. This realization has shaped my current work, inspiring me to write not just for the present but with the future in mind. By doing so, I aim to connect across time—with generations now and those yet to come.
