Clear the Damn River

Let’s talk about energy—not the “I need another double espresso” kind, but the deep-down, soul-level kind that keeps us connected, alive, and (on a good day) not yelling at traffic. I’m still working on that one. “But seriously it’s that little lever on the left!” Life energy flows through us like a river. When things are…

May my vibe touch yours, always for the better

Okay, so here’s the thing: life is loud. It’s packed and buzzing and basically doing everything all at once. And in all that noise, we can start feeling weirdly separate from each other—like we’re little islands floating around with our iced coffees and unspoken stress. But the truth? Every time we interact with someone, we’re…

Loops of Unity

There’s something kind of magical about a bunch of people standing in a circle. Maybe it’s because circles are everywhere in nature — in the sun, in ripples on water, even in donuts (yes, donuts count!). A circle is a symbol of perfection, no corners, no edges, no one stuck in the back row trying…

Resilience, Softness, and the Sick Joke of Being Human

I was talking to one of my best friends the other day about how much life has changed. Ten years ago feels like yesterday, and somehow, I caught myself thinking I should be further ahead. You know that voice—the one that whispers, “You should have it all figured out by now. Things were so good…

Relief of Surrender

I am not the easiest creature to love for those who content themselves with the mere surface of life. Though I possess a certain brightness, I am not always in full glow; like the moon, I endure my phases of shadow, retreating when the weight of fortitude becomes too great to bear. Yet know this—when…

Into the Dark to Find Light

When new challenges and opportunities arise, it’s common to mislabel our feelings as fear when we might actually be feeling excitement. Many of us were never taught how to welcome the thrill of a new opportunity, so instead, we retreat, letting anxiety take the wheel instead of awakening our courage. But what if we paused…

Infinite Verity

The journey to uncover our truest selves is an endless odyssey— from the first wail of life’s arrival to the final whisper of breath. In the quiet moments of introspection, we begin to unearth the essence beneath the layers of identity and belief, revealing the core of who we are meant to be. This peeling…

Rest becomes us

Rest, so you may rise. Not as a phoenix, all flame and fury,but as a soft breath of dawn;quiet, steady, unyielding and knowing. Rise! Not because the world demands it, but because you taste the air of becoming. Let the stars hold your fears.Let them shimmer with your doubts,so in their fading, you will see…

Yearning softness

I see you. You know you’re strong, but there are days when you long for a break from it all. Strength can feel both like a gift and a burden, a constant expectation you must carry. The world often assumes that because you’re capable, you can handle everything, no matter how heavy it gets. But…

The sanctuary of patience

If you want to understand how deeply someone loves you, observe how patient they are with you. Patience in love reflects a genuine acceptance of who you are, coupled with a belief in the person you have the potential to become. It’s this patience that compels one to stay by your side, supporting you in…
