Some of them - not all, but some - reach a place where the suffering becomes so complete, so total, that something in them finally surrenders. I watched this happen with my own father in the final days leading up to his death.

Each item is a memory. Each item is energy. Each item is a marker along the path of becoming.

A horse does not question every step. It feels the ground. It adjusts & continues. This is not chaotic movement. This is committed movement.

It wasn’t until my world completely collapsed - until “last resort” catapulted me into healing - that I found myself back in his path.

Our desire to escape pain is instinctual. We want to run from fear, hide from uncertainty, avoid…

I did not grow up consciously knowing what I know now or doing what I do today. We all carry the innate ability to heal…

When we swim upstream against the natural rhythms and cycles of the Universe - against what is asking to move, die, or transform - we create unnecessary chaos. Resistance doesn’t stop change...It only makes it harsher.
