Little light of mine 🎈
As we grow up, we’re taught to trade our instincts for obedience and see the world through rules instead of wonder. By the time we reach adulthood, we haven’t just learned to behave; we’ve been conditioned to perform compliance so deeply that we lose touch with the part of us that once felt alive and free…That part has a name: it’s called the inner child. 🫧

1) Every now and then every human becomes uncomfortably aware of the inevitable truth - we grow older. To some this truth looks down upon you with it’s hand on your shoulder, sending shivers down your spine.
2)This feeling, creates the illusion that you’re stuck in an hour glass with nothing to do but watch as time passes you by.
3) we feel hopeless in a constant state of limbo.
4) we panic.
5) we endure a cycle of self-discovery that leads us to a revelation that becomes our victory. To grow older is to become new everyday. Our bodies change, so do our perspectives and the choices we make. Who you are when your hair is grey and your rhythm slower is an iteration of yourself newer, stronger & more refined than those before.
MOTHER OF PEARL
Fluidity, resilience, and feminine divinity exist in quiet power.
A moment between collapse and becoming.
The surface breaks gently, echoing rebirth, intuition, and the enduring strength of the feminine form.
This is transformation without noise.
This is softness as power.
