Music
I am so thankful for the gift of music. It has always been a primary escapism in my life. Throughout my childhood, I could always find a transcendent solace in music. And still do.
I have always loved sound, whether it be in nature or song. I love lush harmonies and rich, smooth vocals. I love strings and keys. I love the sound of the ocean meeting the shore while seagulls fly overhead. The sound...

This newfound consciousness allows me to realize my true self, and I am eternally grateful. This process I am going through can be somewhat overwhelming at times.

You Were Loved
Whitney. Her voice and artistry resonates with me in a way that NO other artist has. Her passing hurts my soul, but I know she will always remain with us in spirit and song. Her song entitled, You Were Loved, really speaks to my sentiments of her and her impact on humanity as she sings:
You were loved by someone
Touched by someone
Held by someone
Meant something to someone
Loved somebody

Interestingly, I never thought that teaching would be a primary part of my life path. However, my desire to immerse myself in another culture, people, and environment led me here. I feel teaching is vital to the quality of life. What one teaches can truly influence an individual’s and ultimately the collective’s perspective and choices in life. Teaching the youth has reinforced my...

Catharsis
Through introspection, I was able to delineate what was keeping me from progression of self. The interesting thing is I had known all along what the source of stagnation was, but I created a mentality of victimization, unknowingly.

“The service we render humanity is really the rent we pay for our room on this earth.”
- Anon
There are 5 things in life you can not recover: A stone…after it’s thrown. A word…after it is said. An occasion…after it’s missed. The time…after it’s gone. A person…after they die. Life is transient. Break the rules. Forgive quickly. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Laugh abundantly. And never regret anything that made you...

“Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in wrongdoing or injustice but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.”

When we stop judging ourselves and others, our heart begins to open. The way to healing is to learn to love and accept ourselves unconditionally.
