Without punctuation or tone. Without volume, context, or perspective. We each bring different scenarios to the phrase. Some find themselves singing. However, we are each correct in our own right. There is no value or judgment aside from what our ego and experience bring to the table. These things though. They shape our values and our judgments. Words have such unrelenting power. Please take care in wielding them.

You’ve heard it said and wondered how sure they were within themselves. I’ve said it myself with my arms around chosen family. The thin spaces upon this realm, in which we reside, allow us to have closer glimpses of our source. Closer glimpses of each other and joy. Closer to joy. Closer to going home.

Whether I’m writing, snapping pics, having meaningful conversations, or meditating in silence, it’s nice to feel refreshed. It’s nice to support a new local watering hole as well. Thank you @rumsugarlimereno for the best Mojito (my personal fave) I’ve had in the Biggest Little City in the World! I’ll definitely be returning for inspiration in planning the next installment of @poetsofthecaribbean. Happy sipping! Happy speaking! Happy serving! Happy inspiring!

When I look back on the life that I’ve lived thus far, and look forward to the potential of future days, I feel the need to detoxify. To grow. To heal my body, and have my body be healed. From experiences. From events. From life. This must be done to see how far we are truly capable of going in the direction of our dreams.
