Whisper of Becoming
By Juju Ito, 9.29.2025
In the quiet cage of the preordained,
the soul lies still —
lulled by harmony,
it forgets how to tremble.
But when a single step
crosses into the unknown,
a subtle trembling begins.
It gathers —
as breath,
as light,
as a force that quietly alters a life.
And you remember:
You came here
for that trembling —
to love,
to create,
to move the world.
The Soul of a Whisper
(In Response to “A Whisper of Becoming” by Juju Ito)

To move the world,
We need love —
To create that trembling force —
That alters a life.
Quietly, subtly,
Before the trembling gathers,
We find the courage to take a step —
Into the unknown —
Embracing our trembling fear —
A harmonious soul.
