The Greatest Project by Michelle Pitt

I didn’t know
there was something in me
that needed to heal.
I was aware of everything
but me.

I’d mastered the art
of showing up for others,
while quietly disappearing
from myself.

Then came the shift—
a whisper in the silence,
a nudge from within.
I realized:
I needed me.

So I became
my own project,
my own priority,
my own sanctuary.

And oh,
what a journey it's been—
full of revelations,
unexpected grace,
and sacred becoming.

I’m learning
to see myself with new eyes,
to trust the sound
of my own soul speaking.

What I focus on
begins to bloom,
so I plant with intention,
and water with truth.

I reprogram my mind
not from fear,
but from love—
from the vision
of who I truly am.

This is the life I create:
rooted in healing,
growing in purpose,
whole in every way.
