accountable for what they did to you…
it doesn’t mean the energy of what
happened is yours to carry

in february…
i want to be the most passionate version
of myself… to feel and feel… and follow what i feel,
and inhale love and be love, and exhale any fear…
and this version of me won’t apologize
for having a heart on fire

i don’t know if our nervous systems are
made for social media… to have so much noise
over our own inner voice trying to influence
who and how we should be…
but i’m learning to say things like…
“who and how i want to be can’t be shaken
by what’s outside of me. i need to like me…
and that’s what i’m going to
let matter to me.”

i miss what it
feels like to believe in sunrises.
to wake up feeling like… today will be good,
beautiful things will happen,
and nothing will hurt.
but the world just keeps breaking
my heart again and again
and again.

current mood…
leaning into the feminine energy in my life,
within myself, in my soul, in my connections
with women & girls… my friendships.
and in nature… the way it’s in the flowers,
but also in the moon,
just anywhere i can feel it…
it’s where things are beautiful and soft,
but it’s where i’m protected, too.

a love language…
good conversation. intense conversation.
wit, banter, chemistry. tell me things.
a curiosity exchange… the kind you
don’t want to end.

what if you are on the
verge of the most beautiful year…
dare the universe to show you how
beautiful it can get…
let things unfold, and let them be easy.
let there be dreams, and let them be real.
let it all grow. then let yourself trust it
and hold it… know that it’s yours,
and let it all stay.

there will be a year when your
life falls apart in ways that make you feel like
you’ve never been so lost… but it’s important
that you keep going…
because there is a version of you
waiting on the other side of that journey
who knows that all of the falling apart and
burning down were clearing the way
for so much blooming.

they say you are gone.
but i still feel you… in signs and serendipities,
you are imprinted in song lyrics and visiting me
through butterflies… i am trying to understand the
texture of this world without you because they say
that you are gone, but i still feel you in energy,
and i’m sure that you’re still with me.

there will be a year when your
heart gets so broken that you feel like
you won’t survive it… but it’s important
that you keep going…
because there is a version of you
waiting on the other side of that journey
who is healed and free and has such
a beautiful new life to show you.
