Title A name given to the resource 'The Only Way is Through' Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ruggie, Daniel Abstract A summary of the resource. The mind is a jungle, a thought-biome which has consumed my soul and binds my existence to its green memories. For years, my fists have led my fight forward, pushing through nostalgia and scars alike. My back, grown tired, yet sculpted for flight beyond all I am and all that I can be. I can’t help but wonder what journey will lead me out of the jungle. What comes next in my internal world? Abstraction becomes reality through blended tones and bold lines. Colors, saturated proof of existence, demand for your attention, if only for a moment. Words fall flat so paint markers and canvas become the only tools possible for describing a place, a time, a memory–everything you can’t find on a map. Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2026
