and I wander off, just to come back home. I am overcome with humility and gratitude that although I didn’t expect to be able to share space + time here this summer, there I was! :’) some things I’m moving forward with: -a strong, but gentle whisper to sit in the things I know without question to be true - (love...belonging, generosity,patience). with this, came an immense release of anger, insecurity, questioning. a nudge to reach for the true things, and to go ahead and loosen my grip on the other stuff. it’s easier to hear the whisper once you stop yelling. -a push toward what I’m seeking. a reminder to continually ask myself what that is. -an invitation to prioritize how it feels and not how it looks - which as an artist of 2 visual mediums - is a curious and freeing investigation. and so necessary. -a ginormous exhale that comes with remembering that we don’t HAVE to DO the thing, we just are the thing. & a particular dislike of the word ‘should’ -a lot of gratitude - but the raw kind. the kind that slaps you in the face. - because I think of how much time(time!!!!) we(I) spend distracted by literally everything else other than what actually matters. (love). and ‘time, you know, you can’t get it back’... my gratitude amplifies. @soulescape, now I’m more than I am when we started. ‘22!!!!!!!!!!!
