I exist in a universe you cannot comprehend
A world with no beginning or end
An unplanned existence
Full of survival and resistance
A resiliency that has been fed to me before my infancy
Surviving a world that never wanted me
Yet, here I stand
An unplanned child
Unwanted inconvenience
Hewn into the man that stands before you

The Ritual of Winter Challenge Winners
Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.
