Laura Silvina (laurasilvina)

I am fascinated by the human experience and all it entails. Since childhood, I have been deeply interested in the big questions of life and I'm convinced that each one of us has a source of wisdom within that can guide us along the way. For me, the most direct access to precise guidance comes through contemplative writing. I have come to realize that while we each have our unique individual journeys, the insights we gain from our path are universally relevant. And when we share our own insights, we uplift ourselves and each other. That's what I hope to accomplish through my poetry: upliftment of self and others. I hold a PhD in Education and work at a prestigious university though my dream is to become a professional writer and poet—it is the artist in me that longs to be free.
