Within us live many voices, each speaking its own language that represent our desires, fears, and memories shaped by time. At our core, there’s a steady presence, a quiet leader, patient and kind, capable of guiding the noise toward peace.

Some parts build walls, guarding against old wounds, while others hide, burdened by pain too heavy to carry alone. Yet healing comes when we listen, not with judgment, but with care, allowing each voice to be heard, each weight to be lifted.

In this process, we find that even the most guarded parts soften, revealing a way to live in harmony. And as we learn to make peace within, the world outside begins to shift, our connections deepened by the understanding we’ve earned.


— Sincerely, Boris
Inspired by “You Are The One (You’ve Been Waiting For)” by author Richard C. Schwartz; on applying internal family systems to intimate relationships.
