How do we go on

after the unthinkable happens?

How can we carry the burden of knowing

the world can be cruel and dangerous,

the future so unpredictable?

How do we grieve with empty arms

and a head filled with echoing memories?

We are stronger than we know,

and this is how we show it:

Holding

each other,

giving comfort in the midst of pain.

Loving more fiercely,

through our actions and the things we say.

Making the world just a little bit better,

every single day.

Never taking life for granted,

knowing that it can be snatched away.

This world may bring deep darkness,

but we are the bearers of light.

We’ll join our flames together,

and shine in the blackest of nights.

May we love a little harder

Feel a lot more deeply

Cherish the little things,

Because they DO matter,

Remember who cares for you

& return the care, indubitably and consistently

For when you spread the light....

The longer it shall shine...

Once the darkness is able to be seen,

Through rays of sunshine,

Is when you will know that,

Life can be So divine

Must we cherish our treasures,

Along with ourselves...

Because this body we are housing is worth an eternity1

This vessel is birthed to G R O W...

How can we grow up, if we do not show up?

Showing up for yourself is the beginning..

Yet why do we always find ourselves forgetting to put ourselves first?

To roam this Earth and to beseech for anything externally is foolish..

Because first we must realize the most power and wisdom, is held within... internally.

Live every waking moment you are graced with as if it were the last hour you had ...

What would you do with it?

Who would you call?

Where would you go?

What about the ones who do not have answers to these questions?

They may feel lost...

Confused ..

Alone...

Imagine feeling such grief, pain and agony...

Now imagine living out that fear, day in and day out...

The answer I have for the man who fears not having it figured out yet....

Go find your answers,

Seek them from the frequencies you feel when you hold hands with your favorite person

When you are doing the things you're most passionate about

Smiling and laughing until you cry...

It is within these epic moments...

You will find your why..

When you know why..

it makes time become something much greater, than

just another bird flying by...

So it is not I, who is in fear of the sky..

It is I who is bracing myself for the days the darkness stops by...

I will look it in the face and scream

Sweetheart, it is OKAY TO CRY...

Feeling your emotions through and coming to a conscious conclusion on how to move forward with processing them is very important.

Too many of us bottle things up until we spontaneously combust

Please, tell your people you love them

Apply for that job you always dreamed of

Audition for a play or role you've fantasized about

Go get the girl!!!!!

Travel the world!! See all the things

Experience as much as humanely possible.

We were all lucky to be gifted such an incredible, profound thing called life...

I don't think a lot of us really take a moment to rake a step back to view life as precious as I have come to view it in the last 10 years of my life..

Don't mind my all over the place writing.. I just have a fuck ton on my mind and needed an outlet and I'm far too impatient to actually write in a notebook.. which I find sad...and heartbreaking , realizing as a 26 year old that the technological world is taking over as I type... lol... anywho... I love you all, each and every single one of you. Please reach out if you EVER feel alone or want to chat or are searching for some sort of awakening, i am here for you. Forever more.
