Our fire is to be maintained across breath. It is to last us across days, occasions, events, and tragedies. Our fire is built upon the energy we are given and the light we have within to begin. It can be a gathering place for others who have no way of knowing which way to proceed in the darkness they are facing.

In the midst of conflicts betwixt those who pick on, and those that get picked, let us take the longview through kingdom eyes before we write the script. Let us give love to strangers though changes and dangers. Let us battle the chaos like babes with beginner’s minds just waking in mangers.

I was born in the transition from spring to fall, and fall can be brief when prepped. And we all know winter is coming, as this empire has stepped. Our core is rotten, our foundation is broken, and into oblivion we’ve leapt.

Be Wise. Stay Golden. Stay with tried, and soon you’ll be holding the world’s attention on an international stage. Day by day, writing a new page for the biggest little to break out of the Olympian cage.

The voice of our collective mother is speaking from within, answering questions we didn’t even begin to ask yet, as well as the ones we should have but never did. Her words shape our peaks and settle in our valleys. They resonate with star dust and pour out like lava. They are the saltiness of the ocean mixed with the sweet taste of home. They live in us. The words live in us.

Dear Emma,
.
It made my heart leap to hear your voice, to see you rise for the fallen, and to see you speak for the silenced. I was proud you made the choice to answer your call and howl out against this violence. I had hope not in his actions, but in yours. It cut through the factions, and we felt your innermost pours. Your heart and your soul joined your voice that now lives on in others, which starts to anoint the left behind, the mourning family of sisters and brothers.
