Beyond What Eyes Can See

If someone couldn’t see me and asked me to describe myself, I think I’d pause, not because I wouldn’t know what to say, but because it’s hard to wrap a whole human into neat little words. Still, I’d try.

I’d say, “I’m someone who feels deeply, even when I don’t show it. I live in my head a lot, constantly overthinking, romanticizing ordinary moments, and sometimes overanalyzing my own existence. I notice the little things, the way someone’s voice softens when they care, the silence between two people who are drifting, the weight behind someone’s ‘I’m fine.’”

I carry a soft heart, but I’ve also had to build quiet armor around it. Life teaches us to toughen up, especially in a world that celebrates performance over authenticity. But I’m still that person who hopes, who roots for people, who cries at late-night poetry and old songs. I’m the kind of person who might feel out of place in a crowd but completely at home in a deep one-on-one conversation. And honestly, I’d pick raw honesty over small talk any day.

I’m spiritual, not in the ritualistic sense, but in how I believe in energy, in karma, in the way the universe works in mysterious alignments. I believe that healing isn’t linear, and that our souls carry wounds from places even words can’t reach. But I also believe in light, that even the most tired heart can bloom again. I don’t have all the answers, but I’m constantly searching, asking, unlearning.

Emotionally, I’m full of little contradictions. I’m soft, but I’ve been through enough to be strong too. I’m quiet most of the time, but I open up deeply when I feel safe. I believe in giving people another chance, but I’ve also learned when it’s time to let go for my own peace. I’m trying to break old patterns passed down through my family, while also learning how to love others, and myself, in a healthier way. I’m slowly understanding that setting boundaries doesn’t mean I’m pushing people away, that being alone isn’t the same as being lonely, and that not every love has to last forever to be real.

And like most of us in today’s generation, I’m tired, but not just tired in the physical sense. It’s that soul-exhaustion from constantly trying to balance the weight of expectations, the highlight reels of social media, the ache to be understood, and the pressure to always have your life “figured out.” But I still wake up every day with the stubborn hope that something beautiful is coming, that I’m not running out of time, I’m right on my path.

So, if you couldn’t see me, I’d say I’m the kind of person you’d get to know through the things I write, the way I hold space for you, the way I listen, and how I sit with you in your mess without needing you to fix it. I might not be the loudest in the room, but I’m the one who will remember what you said three weeks ago because it mattered to you.

I’m a work in progress. A soul in transit. A heart learning to beat without fear. And above all, I’m human, messy, beautiful, layered, flawed, and trying my best to live this life with meaning.

That’s me. Beyond what eyes can see.
