Before You Wander | An Invitation to Begin

If you’ve ever felt too unfinished, too messy, or too broken for the world—
you’ve found the right place.

This isn’t a space for polished stories or perfect endings.
It’s where chaos meets faith, emotion meets survival,
and words become the bridge between wounds and healing.

I don’t write because I have answers.
I write because I’m still in the middle of it—
still learning how to breathe through the breaking,
how to hold both doubt and belief,
how to find beauty without pretending the cracks don’t exist.

Here, you’ll find:

~ Poetry pulled from dark places.
~ Reflections whispered between survival and surrender.
~ Ramblings that don’t always resolve—but are honest all the same.

This isn’t curated.
It’s not perfect.
But it’s real.
And sometimes, that’s enough.

So stay awhile.
Read. Breathe.

You don’t have to be whole to belong here.


About Me

I’m Kali—
A storyteller shaped by survival, surrender, and the sacred beauty found in broken places.

I write from the in-between—the space where faith collides with doubt, where wounds still ache, but hope dares to linger.
These words aren’t coming from someone who’s “made it.”
They come from someone still becoming.

This space holds the pieces of my journey—raw, unfinished, and honest.
Not to offer answers, but to remind you (and myself) that even in the fractures, there’s grace.

Even in the silence, there’s a story worth telling.

Follow wherever your heart feels pulled.
This is a space for becoming, not arriving.
