Balance
It’s a delicate balance. You know the one….independence versus relationship. One wrong move and you’ve slipped right off that tightrope. You don’t even know you’ve fallen until you hit the ground and then you realize what you lost all in the name of the other. Have you mastered it yet? Has anyone really mastered it?…

Perfect Day
I just wasn’t ready. When I met him, I just wasn’t ready. I hadn’t thought about it for two years…..meeting someone again. Being someone again. I forgot to use my superpower, my invisibility cloak, the day I met him. But it was such a magical day, I didn’t want to be invisible that day. I…

Soulmates
I know what a soul connection feels like. And I know the intensity that comes with that territory. I know the exhilaration when a soulmate finds me in this world of 7 billion people. I know the work it takes to unravel lifetimes of shit. I know the obsession that keeps us both returning and…

Sharks and Mermaids
I see a Mecca up ahead. The sun is almost set. The sky is mostly dark blue with some purple hues towards the horizon. An orange light lines the point where earth meets sky in the farthest direction I can see. There are lights glowing up ahead and down below. I realize I’m up on…

Pain
The desert is vast but I continue on. I’m tired, weak, but somehow finding the strength to KEEP GOING. Every step is an effort that I dig deep to find and somewhere I find it. I’m present enough to tune out the daunting trek. I’m not thinking about where I have been or where I…
