So here I am, writing what I couldn't say before, in words guided by what force I don't know but now flow freely of their own will.

In the course of my hikes, I had the time to reflect and experience many different emotions, processing the hurt in my heart still raw from being denied the comfort of a family and my itinerant existence, without a sense of belonging to a place or people.
