    To the moon and back

    I know that we’ve never really had life without risk. It was always there. It will always be there. It is part of what makes life good and sweet and worth living.

    Grief and Gratitude Pt. II

    What I didn’t know was how much a heart can open in the midst of grief and fear. I didn’t know that no matter how hard I tried to anticipate these moments, nothing could prepare me for the outpouring of love we’ve received. I had no idea gratitude and grief were such close companions.

    Ancestors

    Bone of your bone,
    flesh of your
    flesh.

    I rise
    from the ashes
    of your strife.

  • Poetry

    A house divided cannot stand

    Do not fear the shadow side of the moon,
    the double edged sword
    you carry in your hand.
    Feel, and never look back.
    Err, and do not retrace those steps.
    Stumble, and bear your scars with pride.
