an open letter to the men of the world

If you don’t read to the end of this blog, you will possibly hate me. You may hate me even if you do read to the end of it. That’s OK, because unless you’re a horrible beast of a human, I am sending you love. Even if you are that, I am at least TRYING […]

What if it’s not a crisis?

Recent conversations creating a swirling of thoughts and emotions, as they often do. Topics of familiarity. Societal and familial expectations, and the not meeting of them, or diverting from them.

Don’t Fear the Fall

Two weeks ago, or maybe last week, the voices in my head gave me this message; ‘don’t fear the fall.’ It popped in, I heard it, and, as I do, nodded at it, and let it be. But as they sometimes do, the voices repeated it. At first softly, then with an increasing volume. When […]

When Shadows Fall We Rise

Let us be done now with thinking. Let’s slip into our hearts to hear what they say when we’re free from the chatter of how its supposed to be. Free from fear that is not about what is but about what has been before now before this. When words were spoken (that didn’t account for […]
