Comforting Thought: We Resemble Each Other Through What We See Together
“Contrary to current prejudicial ideas, the people who do not have the right to stand alone are precisely the artists. Art cannot be a monologue. When even isolated and unknown artists appeal to posterity, they are doing nothing more than reaffirming the very meaning of their work. Because they consider that a dialogue with deafContinue reading “Comforting Thought: We Resemble Each Other Through What We See Together”

Who made the world?
Who made the world? The billowing clouds heading southward. The pillowed reef and a thousand animals beneath my feet. Who made the wind bracing my ankles. The shadows behind and through it all. Who makes the light dance in one part of the world. While other places cut like a frozen blade through flesh. WhoContinue reading “Who made the world?”

Comforting Thought: Healing and the ‘precious now’
“Sometimes the end is sudden
and you are left without closure,
heartbroken and unprepared
for such a sharp change
for a while, you live with a mind
that is half here and half full of regret,
wondering, “what if?”
for a while, your heart only feels grief
and your mind only sees gray
and then life starts to call you back
into its arena of possibility;
it reminds you that all is not lost
and that even though a chapter ended,
there is still a longer story to be told
with time and intention,
wounds lose their heaviness,
healing fills the tough parts of your being,
and you awaken the light of love within yourself
in time, you will return fully into the precious now with a heart that feels refreshed and ready to move forward”

Thrilling and Subversive Street Art: 2025 Edition
I suppose you all know by now that I have strong political views. Mostly I keep these to myself but really I had to share this. Although my political views are far from radical. They involve advocating for a government that is elected by the people, working for the people and not for wealthy billionaires.Continue reading “Thrilling and Subversive Street Art: 2025 Edition”
Comforting Thought: Holding Space
“In special moments, we can take turns deeply seeing one another. here we move beyond having an exchange into holding space while someone reveals their truth. this is a higher level of listening that involves acting as a compassionate audience for another person without interrupting or adding our own perspective. when we hold space for one another, hearts become more open, truth is ready to be revealed, and old tension comes to the surface so that it can be seen and held, not just by the speaker, but also the listener. this collective honoring of each other’s truth can be incredibly healing.”
