About I Came, I Saw, I Became

This story follows Lindani, a gifted young man who rises from a large rural family to become a respected academic with power and influence. On the outside, he appears to have everything—status, wealth, and a future many dream of. Yet his drive to succeed comes at a cost. His marriage breaks down, friendships fade, and his life becomes ruled by ego and pride.

Then everything collapses. A shift in political power leads to false charges and a prison sentence. Locked away at fifty, Lindani is forced to face his truth. In prison, he meets a group of people who change his view on life. Together they explore ideas about consciousness, purpose, and inner peace. Through service and self-reflection, he learns that true growth does not come from winning, but from awakening, connecting, and choosing love over fear.

This is a story of loss, change, and rebirth—proof that life can break you open to reveal who you were always meant to become.
