Hello folx! I have been doing a lot of reflecting, and I am hoping to disconnect more online so I can be more grounded generally. So, I will be stepping off twitter indefinitely. This is a personal decision; this is not a reflection of what I think others should or should not do
the idea that saying "i love you" a lot devalues it relies upon a framework of value stemming from scarcity which stands in contradiction to the fact that the beauty of love is found in its abundance.
May your next season heal you from every lie of unworthiness.
May the imprint of yesterday’s wound fade away.
May you shift from mourning to morning.
May it be so and so it is…

Stop scrolling.
Take a deep breath.
Remember that you’re full of sacred worth.
Remember that you’re loved.
Now carry on with that in your mind’s eye and notice how it reshapes your world.

To those who have interacted with me since I got my precious pup, I apologize for degrading to a 1-dimensional, dog-dad character in your story. I appreciate your still including me (and Maggie) in your life.
