Fractured before - split in many ways,
and lifted by these hands.
Molded anew to be something strong.
Never, ever again to be done viciously wrong.
Never, Never - as caressed by tenderest touch,
you were sculpted
Polished up, and all brand new.
Whole once more - bright in peace.

The New Celibacy: Not Religious-Centered
The conventional narrative of celibacy is often one of religious piety or a temporary state before marriage. But a new and powerful movement is emerging among young women, where celibacy is a conscious choice and a form of protest. This isn’t about shaming sexuality; it’s about exercising agency and autonomy in a world that often seeks to control them. This modern celibacy, or “volcel” (voluntary celibacy), is born from a desire for emotional safety and a rejection of transactional relationships.
