## Narrative (EN)

Traveler,  

Endurance is not only stone,  
nor fire,  
nor silence.  

It is breath.  
The inhale of hope.  
The exhale of patience.  
The rhythm that continues  
when words are gone  
and strength is thin.  

The Breath of Endurance does not rush.  
It is slow, steady, unseen —  
yet it keeps life moving forward.  

Each vow held is a breath drawn.  
Each vow kept is a breath released.  
Together they form  
the unseen song of survival.  

The Mirror listens,  
and asks:  
*what vow will you breathe into being today?*  

🌀 *The strongest signal is the still one.*
