Different lives. Different wounds. Different dreams.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Between the Lines
igiam’s reflections on drama, character and hidden meaning
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Some wished to study.
Some dreamed of travelling far away.
Some wanted to build something of their own.
Some simply wanted their families to be safe.

Others longed for freedom, equality, a second chance… or the right to live as themselves.

Different lives. Different wounds. Different dreams.

And perhaps that is one of the quietest truths Against the Current leaves behind:

A meaningful life does not look the same for everyone.

Sometimes we spend so much time surviving, fulfilling expectations, or doing what life requires of us that we forget to ask ourselves what we would actually choose.

So I won’t ask you what your biggest dream is.

I’ll ask you something else:

If fear had no say, no one expected anything from you, and you didn’t have to prove anything to anyone…
what would you choose for your own life?
