The year was such a kaleidoscope of experiences, shapes shifting fluidly between highs and lows. As we all share the highs, let’s also hold each other through the lows. Whether I saw you or not, held you or not- know I hold so much love for you in my heart and will continue to hold that space for you into the future. We are alive, we are here, and holy hell there will be more joy. Happy 2025.
Mom,
You held my first heartbeats
Spoke stories to me in big bellied evenings
Telling me about beginnings and endings
Before it all
Carrying me into the world with
A self-taught steady handedness
You answered all my questions
You have told me to speak kindly to myself
To forgive
To remember
To live heart-first into each moment
Sometimes I listened
You say: the stories we tell ourselves matter
The one you tell yourself
In quiet Arizona mornings
Alongside desert valley winds
And under mesquite trees
Echos through our family
Helping us hold sacred the beginnings
And the endings
Through it all
And live heart-first into each moment
And remember
And forgive
Because you have told me to speak kindly to myself
And sometimes I listen
Invite a poor swamp witch in from the cold?
Heading out to @brattleboro_qdp Traded the mask for makeup. Arguably makeup is my most solid form of masking. Next to KN95s, of course.
