To endure

Some transformations are invisible.
It makes no sound.
He doesn't want an explanation.

Enduring is often misunderstood.
It is often confused with weakness, giving up, or retreating.
But enduring is often just another way to survive .

In origami, paper doesn't resist folding.
But it is not passive either.
Each floor is a deliberate act.
It chooses a direction.
It leaves a trace.

It's the same in life.
Every experience adds a layer to our being.
It might be possible to reopen it.
But it leaves a mark.
And those marks determine who we will be next.

Transformation does not mean becoming someone completely different.
To transform,
with the same material
It is about finding another form.

Therefore, the transformation isn't always significant.
Sometimes it just changes direction.
Sometimes it slows down.
It sometimes stops.

But every stance,
It creates space for the next floor.

In origami, no layer is wasted.
Even if it's not visible,
It lives in its final form.

It's the same with people.
What we've experienced won't disappear.
It is hidden.
It is movable.
And in due time, it will acquire a new meaning.

To endure,
not to belittle oneself;
It is self- defense .

To transform, however,
not in a hurry,
It will happen when you're ready.
