Dedication
To those who still feel wonder.
To the ones who look at the stars and remember they are home.
To every hand that builds, every voice that heals,
and every heart that still believes love can save the world.
This is for humanity — all of it.
No borders. No flags. No “us” or “them.”
Just one great breathing story, trying to find its way back to itself.
