  • Affogato Afternoons

    Affogato Afternoons

    Affogato afternoons, where the day softens and the heart sharpens.
    I sip the sweetness melting into the bitter, hoping it teaches me something honest.
    I remember I’m allowed to slow down.

    Some afternoons are a truce.
    Others are a battlefield,

    Where I sit across from myself, letting the espresso burn through the fog I thought I was done fighting.
    But here – in this melting moment – I let it all blur.
    The past I’m trying to outgrow, the future I’m not ready for, the voices that rise like steam and disappear just as fast.


    Because in affogato afternoons, I learn the same truth over and over:
    Even the bitter can soften. Even the frozen can give. And sometimes, the only way forward is to let yourself melt just enough to begin again.

  • Harvest From The Loss

    Harvest From The Loss

    I thought it would destroy me but I harvested from the loss.

    Release, under a crimson red sky.

    I craved crisp air for my lungs. I willed my cold dead heart back to life.

    Not determined to live under the damage done, determined to rise up from it and rebuild again.

    Wisdom rises from failure.

    Dwell not on the past nor inflame the source.

    Correct your misconceptions.

    Transcend limitations.

    Move into the unknown.

    All the power lies within your true self and untroubled spirit.

  • Reason To Be Here

    Reason To Be Here

    Sometimes I wish not to be here.

    To no longer walk this earth, to breathe this last breath.

    Sometimes everything is too much.

    All the thoughts and voices,

    Pain and sorrow;

    Overwhelming.

    Then I look to the horizon.

    Meeting the suns gaze.

    Feeling the rays of light warm against my skin.

    A deeper unknown pulls at my heart, stirs the mind.

    Speaking of reason to be here.

    Reason unknown but futhermore a reason of truth.

    Walking through the fire, burns.

    But for it we become stronger.

    Eventually at peace within the flames. All wisdom, all power lies within.

  • The Aligning Of Energy And The Stars Beyond

    The stars align and the energy around us moves not for our longings and desires but for what is needed for us to live a full life. To grow in wisdom and strength. And to build solid foundations to stand on. 

    The truth shakes our dreams and thoughts into reality; to see with full clarity the spectrum of life and the experiences it brings forward to the table.

    Open your eyes and see the path you are following. Set ablaze your journey, ignite your passion and create with love and peace as guidance.
    The only constant is change and nothing lasts forever but by living in the moment, the memories and lessons can last a lifetime.

    Live in the now and be filled with enjoyment and humbleness.
    Learn from the past but do not let it control the now or the future.
    Create for the future with an abundance of love and understanding in your heart and let yourself go with the flow.

    Do not fight against what the universe has planned for you. Let the magic overtake and trust that challenges will be overcome and that hope and peace will fill up your inner soul along the way and guide you to the stars and beyond.
