Knock knock.
Who’s there?
Orange.
Orange who?
Orange, blue, orange. 😂

Okay, this joke slaps so hard — it was my little brother’s go-to, and you kinda had to be there to get it lmao.

So now that we know the origin story of The Qujanaq Project, let’s get into the scaffolding — because if you know me, you know I like to get into the deets.

As the oldest of five, there was dramaaaa. But also — lots of people, lots of noise, and lots of tea. ☕

Fast forward: my 30s. Everyone’s grown, doing their own thing, and suddenly my life got real quiet.

So I filled it.

Not like normal filling though — to the MAXXX. You know me: all in. I looked around and was like, brahhhhh… this is a lot.

But I justified it. I told myself I worked hard, I deserved it, I needed it. It was always the next story, the next climb, the next big “win.” If I worked hard enough, I’d make it happen. Sheer force. Nothing could stop me.

Until one day, I tore it all down — like, literally tore it down — with a sledgehammer while driving across the country to visit my fam.

Got back home like, “Okay, cool. Castle’s gone. Now what?”
Bruuuu. What came next was the hardest season of my life.

I legit died — the old version of me, gone. What followed was me learning how to live again. Yeah, I know it sounds wild, but hear me out — I didn’t believe it either.

Until I had to fully surrender…

There I was, lying on the ground in the pouring rain like some kinda sad indie film, just done. Absolutely, done, I stopped fighting. I dropped the armour. I let it all go.

And from that moment on, I started operating from a completely different place — one that’s softer, truer, and finally, mine.

Now, all the parts of me have a home.
I’m finding the joy in staying alive — slowly, clumsily, and beautifully.

It’s a process.
It’s been a process.
It will always be a process.

But yeah — I’ll mess up, I’ll stumble, and I’ll laugh through it.
Because ain’t nothing gonna break my stride. Ain’t nothing gonna hold me down. 🎶

✌️ Peace in the Middle East.

So yeah, thats the tea, check out my art, it will be here on my legacy store, shout out to Shopify for making that happen. 🖼️

As always, Aakuluuuukkkk 🩷😊
