Dostoevsky gave the world its most repeated prophecy: Beauty will save the world. But prophecy begins in the singular, not the crowd. Before empires are redeemed, the pulse is steadied; before history bends, the self is restored.

This phrase reclaims the line as private gospel. Salvation does not arrive in marble cathedrals or revolutions — it begins in the quiet rescue of the individual, when beauty pulls breath from despair, when color interrupts the grey, when form or word convinces you to stay.

To collect this piece is to wear a revision of scripture: beauty not as abstraction, but as medicine. Not someday, but now. Not for the world first, but for you.
