What an achingly beautiful read. I am grateful I gave it the space needed to read. I am grateful I gave your music the space to listen as well. I am so honored that my exploration of the shyness label opened up something for you to see yourself that much more deeply. (Also, your music is medicine...but I suspect you know that already.)

What a world to live in that creates structures for us to never see ourselves fully. When we are clear mirrors for one another it is such a gift.

(Also, I had that same tooth that just would not get in line with the rest of them. She was determined to sit on high!! Determined!)

Thank you so much. Your attention and appreciation is powerful to me. I am in a phase of new skin. It is a wonder to me what I am doing. Trusting myself and leaning fully into being. Not performing an identity.

I could write an entire essay on what I have been through with my friggin teeth, my lord.

Such a smile! What a shame our ‘isms take away parts of our childhood and young adulthood. I had too long arms. Oh and they were skinny. My hair was too curly. My nose was too big. Sounds pretty dumb now, all in all!

People didn’t have mirrors when they roamed the earth’s beauty. Only water shared image with the sky above. In it we could only be beautiful. How far off our path we have gone… makes it as far to have to come back.

No wonder people struggle. No wonder no one knows what real happiness is. We actually have to make the most concerted effort to come back; we’ve been steered so far off course before we even got here. As a result, it is OUR burden to Do The Work.

Go figure!
