My star, my moon, my midnight dance appeared to me that night like an angel on a less traveled road. She was simple, she was caring, and she was curious. Her every words were enough to quench a suddenly appearing thirst which until then seemed non-existing and unquenchable. Her every move substituted pain with laughter in a fraction of second. A peace to appease my worries, it seemed. A piece of heaven in a dark dungeon, it appeared. A light, a gentle stare that captured my soul and in one second, a quiet voice that forever made me hers, it felt. She walked next to me. I paused and I embraced the moment; I had been visited by an angel. That night, that starry night, I can still remember it as if it were yesterday, she gave me my purpose. I live to love her. But soon in the morning, she was gone, and she never came back. I was broken. I am Kintsugi Khi, and this is my broken heart story.

Forgiveness lies in needing to be forgiven too! In fact, letting go is very difficult, the becoming includes the undoing.
BOOK SUMMARY
An African diaspora tale of self-discovery
Author
From Chapter 1:
My wise friend tells me that broken souls have made the world a better place. I don’t know if I should believe him today. For the pain of yesterday is still lingering, heavily, unbearably, on my heart. I miss her. I really do miss her. And there is nothing around here to calm me down. And yet my wise friend tells me that a broken heart should allow healing lights to penetrate its core. It is when we are broken that we get in touch with the divine.
​
The question becomes, “Will I let the light into my heart? Or will I close my heart to the light?”
I don’t know if I want to listen to him today. For the pain of abandonment and rejection is far too heavy on my soul today. I miss her, I truly miss her. And there is no one to calm me down. Of course, my wise friend tells me that if the universe brought me joy in a fraction of seconds, it will bring it back again if I have hope and purpose.
​
How can he speak of hope when I am so broken?
