into the wild

Perhaps by now I had come far enough to have the guts to be afraid. Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you’ll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you’ll hold on really hard and realize there’s no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room. The universe, I’d learned was never, ever kidding.

WILD- Cheryl Strayed

back home

Leave a light on in the wild

‘Cause we’re all coming in

A little blind

Dreamer of a lighthouse in the woods

Shining a little light to bring us back home

When to find you in the backyard

Hiding behind our busy lives

Dreaming of a lighthouse in the woods

To help us get back into the wild

‘Cause I know

I’ve seen you before

Won’t you shine

a little light

on us now

Won’t you shine a little light

In your own backyard

Won’t you shine a little light

In your own backyard

Dreaming of a lighthouse in the woods

We brought our drum and this is how we dance.

“people try and hide their night, underneath the covers. People try and hide their light, underneath the covers. every time you close your eyes, lies…lies…now here’s the sun, it’s alright. now here’s the moon it’s alright.”

“all the kids have always known, that the emperor wears no clothes, but to bow down to him anyway, it’s better than being alone, but I would rather be alone, than pretend I feel alright. If the businessmen drink my blood, like the kids in art school said they would, then I guess I’ll just begin again.”

I come alive

When you choose peace, love, connection, compassion, nurturing, healing, forgiveness, intuition, and to hold space for each other and what’s felt. When the strength is in your softness, and in the quiet amidst the noise, you honour the sacred feminine. what’s been lost but not forgotten. And our circles and our unity surround their towers with stacked ceilings that block the sun, moon and stars and we sing and dance regardless because it’s in our bones. And our voices are heard from all that we trust in and then a beautiful thing starts to happen, the imbalance slowly starts to fade. And we rise above as a whole.

take me to the depths

Take me to the depths.
Where illusions are shattered, where the timid fear to go. where the lure is it’s imperfections, it’s edges, and paradoxically it’s subtlety. Not for the faint of heart. A place for those who can’t be bought or sold or broken down to swallow up the cheap, easy and spit shined. Take me there, where it’s raw, it’s obscure and it’s real. Where I know it’s true by the way it feels. Take me home.
