The Carpenter’s Story: On the Way Back to Oneself

Abstract

A story about becoming a Carpenter and about the courage to meet oneself - despite losses, or perhaps even because of them. It is the story of a man who grew up in the shadow of absence, learned the world without parents and, in time, without illusions. From an abandoned boy he became someone who can shape something lasting out of wood and pain. Wood accompanies him like an echo of his fate - hard, patient, full of warmth. In the scent of his workshop, he finds meaning. This is a story of growing into inner freedom - of a man who built not only a carpentry shop, but also found himself.
