“Celestial” was born from a vivid daydream on a cold winter evening. I was walking along the trail back home, the sun already set, and the sky shifting into a deep, quiet darkness. My mind wandered to my purpose, my goals, and the dreams I longed to fulfill. I was feeling so tired. In that stillness, an extraordinary vision came to me: stones rising together, breaking free from the earth, and soaring into the endless night sky.
In that moment, they shed every fear and doubt, embodying strength, freedom, and unity. It reminds us that no matter how grounded we feel, we too can rise, especially when we come together. “Celestial” invites us to see beyond the weight of daily life and imagine the limitless possibilities waiting in the unknown.
