In Awe of these words uttered by

Michaela Coel:

“Write the tale that scares you,

that makes you feel uncertain,

that isn’t comfortable.

I dare you.

In a world that entices us to browse the lives of others

to help us better determine how we feel about ourselves,

and to,

in turn,

feel the need to be constantly visible.

for visibility, these days, seems to somehow equate to

success.

Do not be afraid to disappear.

From it,

from us,

for a while.

And see what comes to you in the silence.”

Michaela Coel

In awe of these words by Michaela Coel.

It’s time for that silent retreat… to let the creative process unfold no matter how uncomfortable.

The Neighborhood sighting

There is no utopia on this earth and this neighborhood has its own share of issues. Yes as in the old western, there’s the good, the bad and the … ugly. While we want to turn our eyes away from the bad and the ugly, we also want to recognize, it is a place filled with good people with good intentions to shun hypocracy, armchair critics and naysayers … good people who value justice and democracy because they … care. It’s a community filled people who … care. And sometimes, that’s enough to allow for many of us

Feeling safe … which is huge this day and age. May we all feel that sense of security, at all times guided by Grace, feeling the Love in our hearts, the Divine in our souls.

Life is too short to waste on shame and hate. Life is too precious to short circuit with negativity and anxiety. Life is too beautiful to spend too sad angry or regretful.

For a start, have the courage to ask forgiveness for the transgressions and passive aggressive, well veiled but nevertheless, aggression you displayed to others. It’s a path toward your own freedom- To apologize and thank that true friend for the willingness to speak the truth. Yes, truth hurts but that brutal honesty will spur your growth and transformation to a lighter happier being who is sooooo lit. So …alive. With clear conscience and super charged awareness, we can live life full of unbridled joy and wonder.

I wish that for you ❤️Namaste 

But more … it’s about gratitude for all the essential supporters of this human tribe that made this day a possibility – it’s a milestone. (Thank you for baking this cake from scratch dear M: You are as sweet as this cake – not too sweet – Japanese recipe but with sophisticated mocha with ganache filling and topping – Mmmnnn, Yum:)

Praying for goodness and safety of all – may we all be lucky enough to celebrate another year around the sun with loved ones. Namaste.
