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,

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.
