I love the depth of this line, it captures the intimate connection between identity and place so perfectly.
The image of the Bosphorus waves not only carrying your youth but also your fate speaks to the timeless pull that certain cities have on us, shaping who we are and guiding us, whether we realize it or not.
It feels like Istanbul is not just a city to you, but a living force, a character in your journey through life.
Thanks for sharing!
