✨You are not broken. You’re becoming.✨

An alchemist doesn’t run from the fire—they rise through it.

Every betrayal, every loss, every setback was the raw material for your transformation. You’ve taken your pain and turned it into purpose. Your glow? That’s resilience. Your power? That’s healing.

So let them stare. Let them wonder how you’re still standing—

because what was meant to destroy you only made you more radiant.

You’re an alchemist, sis. Never forget that.
