Almost two months ago, I made a radical decision, and it has changed my life much more than I imagined: to stop using artificial intelligence for everything. Since then, I've only used it for work, and the rest of the time, I've given myself permission to explore my own paths, without digital shortcuts.
The funny thing is that this void, which could have simply been a technological pause, became a fertile space. I don't know if it was by chance or God's providence, but precisely in that time, ~the_stacker_muse territory was born, and the Fiction Month contest appeared in the ~BooksAndArticles. It was as if the exact moment had been waiting for me.
And so, suddenly, I found myself writing. Something I never thought I would do so naturally: in just a few weeks, I created two fiction stories and even dared to write an ode. Yes, I laugh when I remember it, because I never saw myself in that role. Yet here I am, finding words that once seemed hidden inside me. Sometimes we want to take the easy way out of life and lose the joy of enjoying seeing those parts of us that may be dormant emerge. Without a doubt, I believe this is the best thing that has happened to me in 2025.
These almost two months have shown me that sometimes, when we leave a space open, new areas flourish. And I've discovered one I didn't even know existed within me. Perhaps it was a forgotten seed. Perhaps it was a gift from God waiting for its moment.
Be that as it may, I can say that this time without AI has been more than a break: it has been a discovery of myself.
