Life unfolds as a paradox — astonishing in its beauty, devastating in its violence.

This reflection examines how modern systems have taught people to see themselves as fragile, dependent, and in need of constant intervention. It contrasts that conditioning with the inherent wisdom of the body — always adapting, always healing — and considers homeopathy as a more aligned foundation. What shifts when we begin trusting our own wholeness instead of the institutions built on fear?
