You write like someone who already knows the light is still inside her. The dark days ebb, the brighter ones scatter through, and you keep choosing here anyway. That’s not floating by. That’s faith. The only way out is through, and through is taking you somewhere beautiful💞.
thank you for sharing this🥹🌟💫 indeed! i do know the light is still inside, even when it feels dimmed. i like the way you re-characterized it as FAITH 🙏 that is a beautiful way to reframe this feeling. thank you 🫂
Oof this speaks to my soul 🤧🤧 so many days where my mind wanders and goes to places where I wouldn’t want it to - sometimes because everything comes crashing down at once, other days just because. It’s very truly said that if you master your mind, you master almost everything, because both a bored and a restless mind has you making desperate decisions. But of course, it’s easier said than done, with so many voices and stimuli surrounding us. Like you beautifully wrote, at the end of the day, it’s all ebbs and flows, some days we resist it, some days we sit with it… and ultimately we accept it. Healing is never linear, but a dance doesn’t happen without taking two steps back and then one forward, a leap doesn’t happen without first running back to gain momentum. Maybe our spirals are our peers in the sense they’re preparing you for that breakthrough change, challenging to give up the old story.
Always in awe of your poems and thoughts!! Loved this so much, so timely and relatable 💗🌻
ugh<3 always so profound. you always add so much to the conversation that also speaks to me. i love how you said "Healing is never linear, but a dance doesn’t happen without taking two steps back and then one forward, a leap doesn’t happen without first running back to gain momentum." – that is some beautifully poetic shit and i love it. 💃 im so happy this spoke to you at the perfect time. same wavelength my friend. it's kind of mind boggling to think about all of us humans in the world and how we're all living completely different lives yet grappling with many of the same feelings and questions and heaviness. sometimes all we can really do is surrender to it. to the mystery of it all. thank you for being you and for always being so kind and supportive. i think we carry it all with beauty and grace.🌹✨💫
needed this to lock in—i’ve been so focused on what’s happening tmo, next week, next month, next year or what happened last night, last week etc. and im never truly in the moment until i stop carrying the weight of my past and future. such a beautiful read as always🫧🌀🤍
girl me too 🔏🤓 it's a cycle that repeats, and it'll pull us in again. but at least we have the awareness to know when to catch ourselves and refocus on the here and now. it's all we ever really have <3 – thank you for reading and resonating✨
wow are you inside my head? it is weird to find yourself stuck in mental loops for years & constantly chasing some other reality that feels so distant. we are evolving but it doesn’t seem that when we feel we’re going backwards- or maybe in a spiral is a better way to look at it 🌀 resonated hard asf & so beautiful
this whole life feels like one big mental loop my dear friend ꩜ always chasing something. does the spiraling ever cease? does the want ever feel fulfilled? so many questions that i ask myself over and over. yes, sometimes it seems like im evolving internally but yet my external world hasn't caught up. and the spiritualists will say im the blockage. but maybe sometimes, its not that black and white. and sometimes the best people are dealt cards they never deserved. so i try to be thankful for the things i do have. while still wishing on a star for all my hopes and dreams to come to fruition. 💫 but if all we ever do is hope and wish and want, we miss out on the peace that can be found in the here and now.<3 – thank you so much for reading and for seeing me. im happy this piece resonated so much for you. 🫂 *hugs*
I feel like we are always growing in different ways and it’s so fascinating to look back at poems that we wrote years ago or writings that we had and see that we are in a completely different place but still the same person
yes this is so true! it often seems like we're so different from who we used to be, but i still carry all those past versions within me. they're never truly lost. somedays those same old feelings come back up to the surface, but in a new way, with a fresher perspective, and more awareness. – thank you so much for leaving your thoughts and for taking the time to read <3
It's like being haunted by our future—the possibility that it might exist, or might not. That it might be good, or bad, or completely different from what we imagine.
I believe that words can resonate with us for much longer than we realize, and that they remind us of lessons we’ve learned and must remember. This poem you wrote seems to me to have had that effect on you, if I understand correctly. It makes me want to go back and reread what I wrote a long time ago to see if I still connect with it.
yes, so true. haunted is a good word for it. we never know what the future holds, that's why it's so important to try to stay tethered to the here and now. it's all we ever have. taking things step by step and knowing that our best may look different each day. some days what i really need is rest, and that's okay.
you should absolutely go read through old written poems, notes, & journal entries. it feels like a personal time capsule. and so much of what i wrote back then still resonates. and so much of what i wrote in the past, i have grown out of or changed my mind about. it's interesting. evidence of our evolution. 🦋🦋 – thank you so much for reading and letting it resonate and leaving your thoughts <3
you feeel me 😭🫂🦋 ugh yes, it's like an upward spiral. 𖦹 and sometimes you have to repeat the same lesson over and over before it sticks. it makes me feel at ease knowing that thru expressing my own struggle honestly, it helps others find comfort in their own. no matter how alone we feel, we never really are, and that's a beautiful thing. this life can be heavy, but there's also so much goodness. – thank you so much for reading and seeing me <3
I love how this reflection acknowledges that growth isn’t always linear. The same questions can return years later, but we meet them with a little more awareness each time. The tension between striving for more and accepting where you are feels incredibly honest here. There’s no neat answer, just the courage to keep showing up and asking the questions.
wow you summed this up so beautifully. :') that is exactly it. all we can do is be HERE.. right now. if we live in the past, we just hold ourselves back from moving forward. and if we live in the future, we move with anxiety and anticipation–both steal our presence and peace. thank you for understanding the underlying lesson here and leaving your thoughts. i appreciate it so much <3
Beautifully said. The past and future both have a way of demanding our attention, but presence asks something different of us. Not certainty—just participation in the life that’s unfolding right now. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for writing something that invites this kind of reflection. 🌿

really needed a piece like this today - sometimes growth is an inbetween back track and it's comforting to have the echoed back. thank you <3
