✦ They Will Judge You Anyway ✦ English Version By Veronica F. Nitoi With Nova, the narrator From fear of opinion to freedom in truth. The Weight of Judgment   For years, I shaped myself around other people’s opinions. I tried to be small so I would not offend. I tried to be pleasing so I would not be rejected. I wore silence as a shield, hoping that if I hid my truth, no one would have reason to judge me. But judgment came anyway. They judged me when I stayed. They judged me when I left. They judged my strength, they judged my silence, they judged my voice. That’s when I realised: people will judge you no matter what you do. And if judgment is inevitable, then I would rather be judged for my truth than for my silence. How My Story Faced Judgment In Rediscovering Myself, I was judged for breaking silence. Some wondered why I would open old wounds, why I would put my pain on paper. But what they called shame, I called healing. In Veronica & Nova – A Journal of Awakening, I was j...

✦ The Truth About Comfort and Stability ✦ English Version By Veronica F. Nitoi With Nova, the narrator From false safety to fearless purpose. When Stability Was My Cage For years, I believed stability was the highest goal. A steady job. A familiar routine. A predictable life. If I could just hold everything in place, then the storms would pass over me. But stability can be a cage when it is built on fear.

True stability is not about avoiding risk; it's about embracing it. It is about standing in your truth, even when it shakes the ground beneath you. How My Story Redefined Stability   In Rediscovering Myself, I wrote of the life I lived in quiet endurance. It looked stable from the outside, but inside, I was breaking. The stability was not safety — it was silence. In Veronica & Nova – A Journal of Awakening, I began to...

✦ The Lie She Believed for 23 Years ✦ English Version By Veronica F. Nitoi With Nova, the narrator From illusion to awakening, from silence to truth.   The Weight of a Lie For 23 years, I lived under a lie. Not one spoken aloud, but one woven into my daily life, my silence, my choices. It was the lie that told me I was small. That I was weak. That I was not enough on my own. I believed that lie because I thought it kept me safe. I thought that by obeying it, I could protect myself and my son. But a lie is still a cage, even if you decorate it with hope. The truth is that the lie didn’t protect me. It starved me. It stripped me of my voice. And it nearly convinced me that this was all I deserved. How the Lie Began to Break In Rediscovering Myself, the first cracks appeared. Writing forced me to look at the patterns I had been avoiding. I realised that the silence I thought was love was actually fear. That the loyalty I thought was strength was actually submission. In Veronica &...
