Just Keep Swimming
This has been a hard week for me, and the only way to write this today is to share the cycles I swirl through and hope that someone out here will benefit from thinking about their own with compassion or humor.
In short, the privilege to poop at home is about to cost a large portion of my savings, and might require me to get a loan. (Please send good vibes that the latter is not required).
With all that is happening in the world, I can roll with the presumption that you are also mucking through the mire of poo management in your own ways.
The only way out is through. So let’s collectively consider our own natural cycles around stress response and offer ourselves compassion and forgiveness in our current state of being.

We are All Story Makers
We engage with our own lives through story making. You go through a break up, and you begin piecing together your experience in words that create scenes that define each person into a role they played. For how often we do this in our lives, it’s amazing we don’t talk more openly about the pitfalls and power of this act.
