The Initial Spark—The Ace of Wands.
A note from Melaap
The initial spark... exists only to fade away.
We almost always begin with unbound enthusiasm, wrapped in goodwill,
Believing in kindness,
Believing in the future,
Believing in our own worth and potential.
Yet soon enough, we find ourselves crushed under the weight of pressure, responsibility, and desire.
At times, we remind ourselves never to lose that initial spark.
And yet, we can rarely be certain if we have betrayed it—if we have turned our backs entirely on the vision we first set out with.
