This collection of work tells the story of a man’s journey from feeling broken to becoming whole. It explores how society often expects men to be strong and unemotional, making them feel like showing vulnerability is a weakness. In the beginning, the man struggles with these pressures, feeling muted and unsure, but he faces challenges with faith and courage.
As he grows, he learns that expressing his softness is not a flaw but a strength. Healing takes time and is not always obvious to others, but through reflection and growth, he becomes more authentic and understanding of himself. In the end, the man finds peace and strength in his vulnerability and becomes a source of light for others who may be struggling in the same way.
The goal of this work is to invite others, especially men, to embrace their own softness and emotions, showing that real strength comes from accepting all parts of who they are. It encourages breaking free from society's narrow expectations of masculinity and embracing the full range of human experience.
As the man begins to embrace his vulnerability and authenticity, he transitions from being a “sheep” to becoming a “shepherd.” Through self-reflection, he learns to guide himself and others with empathy, understanding, and emotional openness. A shepherd leads with compassion and wisdom, just as the man, having gone through his own healing process, becomes a source of light and support for others who are struggling.
