Tender Echoes

The world is too much, too heavy, too beautiful, too fleeting. 
It is filled with unimaginable pain and suffering, but also unimaginable delight and beauty. And we must bear this in our souls all the time. We carry it all, even when we don’t realize it. 
Even as we fold laundry, or as we stand in the grocery store, holding a carton of eggs, or sorting through old receipts, carrying words we never found the courage to say.

Tender Echoes is an illustrated collection of thoughts, memories, and fleeting emotions that unfolds over seven days. Each day captures deeply personal reflections around themes of memory, identity, family, platonic love, and vulnerability, with a poetic, soft tone.
It reflects the quiet moments. A diary that belongs to whoever holds it, capturing the emotions woven into the mundane.
