breathe here now
I’m not leaving this Ramadan the same person that entered. There’s been a lot of changes; personally, professionally, physically, spiritually, emotionally, metaphysically, intergalactically… Of course I’ve changed. Do you think I went through all that just to stay the same? Now I’m not perfect. Obviously. I still have much work to do. I’m sure you do too, don’t judge! But I own it. I own who I am. I own what I am. And I own WHOSE I am. How could I possibly deny that? God never left my side. He’s the BESTEST friend a gal could ever ask for. So I give thanks for my portion and all the GREAT things still left in store.
blooming in death (valley)
The super bloom is here! For the first time in a decade, Death Valley is bursting with bright yellows, and purples, and pinks, and white. It’s truly a magical place all year round, but this right now is outta sight!
I was reminded today when I flipped open my book, 99 Reasons to Love You, of the wonder I bore witness to when I first moved to California on that fateful day in December 2020. Partaking in my standard morning stroll, I caught a glimpse of all the fruit trees that were sprouting to life in my then neighborhood and came to the conclusion that everything has its time. Everything in nature abides by the same rules, the same circle of death & life. Everything blooms because it must. Everything blooms in its own time.
