Where is that fine line between humility and confidence in the truth I must speak? How does one stay grounded, but still remain open-minded? I want to bend and move with the wind, but I still want the earth to grow my roots in. Oh! I am the absolute and the ever-changing. I am the … Continue reading October 27

What would you do If there was no one to stop you? What would you say If you could speak your whole truth? There are less rules than we think there are Ignore all the noise, look into your heart You'll find a light to lead you in the dark Your way will be made … Continue reading August 26
go back to the mist
Go back to the mist from whence you came. Go back to that ancient realm where everything is energy and you are simply an unimagined dream; the non-existence before conception; merely potential, and nothing more. Go back to being what cannot touch me, what cannot thrill me, what cannot leave me, what cannot hurt me. … Continue reading go back to the mist
deepest attachments
My two year old lost all his binkies today. I tried comforting him to sleep but it was just no use. He cried and cried and cried, and I felt it so deeply. This isn't about a piece of plastic and rubber. This is about my child's first real encounter with grief. His binky is … Continue reading deepest attachments
this is enough
It's been what feels like forever since I let myself believe that you're not just a trickster or an apathetic monster. I don't know who or what you are anymore and it really doesn't bother me right now because the details are irrelevant when presented with that old familiar feeling, which right now, is the … Continue reading this is enough

fear is the great enemy
Fear is the great enemy, yet we regard it as our friend. We defend fear at every turn while turning our backs on our neighbors. If perfect love casts out fear, then fear cannot be associated with a loving God. Either God is loving and merciful, or He is not. I will not let the … Continue reading fear is the great enemy
new moon
The stars shine brightest when the moon is dark and empty. See them all, a billion dreams to choose from. Pick one as a seed, drop it in the fertile moon and watch it grow. Soon you'll see that this one dream will light up the night brighter than all the stars combined. This is … Continue reading new moon

I woke up at 2am this morning and realized I forgot to write a poem yesterday! It was a busy day, full of so many special connections and reminders that I really needed. This is the poem I should have written yesterday if I'd had time: *** In this moment, I can admit I do … Continue reading May 13th
I am not
I am not your sun: I do not make your flowers grow. I do not give you warmth and glow. I am not your moon: I do not light up your night and I do not control your tides. I am not your fire, nor am I your rain. Neither earth nor wind am I, … Continue reading I am not
