The Weaver

I Am Not The Hero

I am not the hero.

I do not carry the sword.

I carry the thread and the ink.

I am the weaver, of harmony, and connection.

My tools are the needle, and quill, words and thread.

I weave with my heart and hands, presence and vision.

The fabric of life, comfort and warmth, prose and stories of lives lived.

I guide, inspire, and create.

I am not the hero.

I do not carry the sword.

I carry the thread and the ink.

I am the weaver, of harmony and connection.

    The idea of being a weaver of harmony and connection through words and thread is really interesting. It makes me think about how different forms of creation can bring people together. I wonder how you translate that into real-world impact. Do you think this concept could be applied in a more hands-on, community-based way? Also, comparing the tools of a weaver to those of a writer is a neat parallel. How do you see the two crafts intersecting in your work?
