This year
May my life be a reflection of service
An offering
A contribution to the world
Rooted in compassion and care
May my actions contribute to healing
And kindness
The threads of connection
That weave us all together……

Some days life feels utterly impossible
The kettle takes too long to boil
My body is stiff
My inner weather is rough
Emails blink like demands
My phone buzzing with expectations
My never-ending to-do list untouched…..

We never meant to worship it
But somehow
The feed became a kind of altar
Anointed by engagement
Ordained by likes
Validated by followers…..

I ran for years
Through my twenties,
Thirties
Half of my forties
Chasing more
The next breakthrough
The next upgrade
The next better version of me……

A shadow across the path of our life
But even in crisis

May I know, at the end of my days,
That each of my choices have mattered -
That I have done work that has mattered -
That the experiences of my life
Have been mixed together into one big earthen bowl
Rich with kindness
And served with a generous heart…….

Exhausted
Overwhelmed
Running on empty
This culture of rushing and hustle
Demanding everything
Offering nothing in return….

Which do you choose?
Juicy
Vital
Soft
Sensual

Grounded
Plump with possibility
Alive
OR…..

Breathe deeply
Let yourself arrive here
An invitation
For your body to soften
Your nervous system to exhale
The restless river of thought to quieten beneath the noise of life
Beneath the stretch
A soft undoing…..

Fragrance arrives in the ordinary
It has its own language
Finding its way through the senses
A signature of each moment
The kitchen after baking
Sweet and warm and lovely…..

I no longer wish to be sensible
To tuck in my wild edges
Or explain my joy
Sensible is beige
And boring……..
