Film Pictures
I think I’ve spent the last four years trying to figure out who I would be without the influence of my family, the people around me, the media, society… Like if I grew up on a beach alone, who would I be? When in reality, that will never be the case It never is the…

True Integrity – Real or Bullshit?
I’m feeling lost. Still. God dammit. I can feel myself getting mad for losing my way again. But then I ask: aren’t we all a little lost? Do we ever truly know for sure what we are doing? Doesn’t anyone who says they aren’t lost seem like they are kidding themselves? Either that, or they…

Let Go Of Self-Will
So, here is a secret: You don’t have to do anything. You don’t actually have any self-will in life. You are being led to your most good, authentic, connected life. The life that your soul truly wants for you. The life that your soul is trying to build for you. And all you have to…

God-ish
Everyone needs something that they can always fall back on when everything goes to shit. Nothing external or physical or dependent on anyone else, not even yourself. Something magical. Something that relinquishes all of our individual power. Something God-ish, but unique to you. Just as long as it’s something to believe in.

The Universe Is A Dreamer
Love this little life The universe took a little tiny bit of itself and made you. It made you to make the world a better place, or at least hoping you will. The universe never knows what’s going to happen when it births another human. It just wants to get to know itself better. It’s…

Instincts, Our Talking Ancestors
Whenever cats leave their litter box why do they always scratch the floor? Why do they do that? I think when we do things instinctually without thinking about it, it’s because our past selves are talking to us. The versions of ourselves from thousands of years ago are trying to tell us something. We thought…

Our Souls are Always at Peace

Who is Powering Us?
who is powering us? who is powering our hearts? making them beat? who is powering our brains? and making us comprehend everything? who is feeling the pain our gut when we think of death? or joy in our smile when we think of life? whoever is powering us is someone, something, that we can never…

Words
Your soul doesn’t speak in words. It speaks in feelings, temperatures, movement, colors… Words have only been created by us not too long ago compared to our time on this earth. Words are not ancient. Words are not the truest form of communication. Before words, we only had our instincts. Our gut, or our “second…

The Truest Forms of Wisdom
Your soul doesn’t speak in words, it speaks in feelings temperatures movement colors. Words are something that us humans have created not very long ago. Words are not ancient.

As It Is

Delusion, The Anecdote to Madness
Is delusion an anecdote to madness? We, humans, like to overthink, reason, deduce, search, discover, problem-solve, find solutions; when in reality, there is no solution to anything. There is no purpose to life, there is no use of life being on earth, and this unsolvable question of why we are here, this endless quest, can…

Why Does Life Want To Keep Growing?
Life developed on this Earth over three billion years ago as little bacteria that lived in the water. They couldn’t breathe oxygen. They couldn’t see. They were just little specs, little particles of bacteria. But nonetheless, they were little balls of energy. Tiny specs of energy. Just as a fetus is formed from one tiny…

Letter To My Brain
Dear Brain, Thank you. You are the one who allows us reason and logic. You are how we survive. You are how I move my hands to write, how I walk, and how I kiss my loved ones. Thank you for all that you do. But you are not in charge. Who is? Within us…

The Gifts Not Meant For Us
does each one of us have a gift or multiple gifts that we are supposed to share with the world? or are we all just here to make the world better in a bunch of small, micro ways? when I think of gifts, I think of athletes or singers or artists who were overly “gifted”…

Magic Dust
On El Camino de Santiago, there is a vernacular term called “Camino magic.” Whenever beautiful and small yet miraculous events happen to pilgrims along the Way, such as a local offering you a night’s stay in their home or a pilgrim giving you a small, cherished stone, we call that “Camino magic.” And after finishing…

Impermanence
Let go of your body, mind, possessions, loved ones, for they could go at any time. But also hold them as close as possible and give them the most incredible gratitude and presence because you could, too, go at any time. Your loved ones have chosen to embrace challenges with you and to nourish you…

Who Is Breathing?
Do you ever nod your head from side to side and feel your brain in there? The brain that we are listening to every time we hear that little voice in our heads? Do you ever realize that we can’t hear our own souls talking to us? We can only hear our brains. Our minds.…

Rooted
All trees start as a seed, from a single point. And when the trunk is cut, you can see it’s solar system with different rings, planets, parts, stories, orbiting around the center. You can see the seed in the middle. Every year, the tree sheds its leaves and branches while growing a new layer within…

Colors Within Us
Our worlds are full of colors inside of us. Purple, pink, blue, and light yellow, all floating around and fading into each other. Our souls are full of vibrant, colorful clouds. Their emotions are strong yet always calm. There are pink clouds of love and warmth. There are blue clouds of logic and rationality. But…

Hold More Gems
A woman’s nightstand is sprinkled with many little colorful gemstones. Did you know that each type of gem has only one individual type of molecule? One singular structural makeup multiplied throughout its entire body? How beautiful it is to see that when one molecule is multiplied over and over again, not being disrupted or intercepted…

The House Where Everything Fits
I used to see other people get so angry over unjust things that it would consume them. I understood their rage because their rage was warranted. But I didn’t feel that same rage deep within me. I felt ashamed of this for a long time. I worked to mirror their rage because I feared that…

Nights (Juicy Moons)
The world looks exactly the same at night as it does during the day. It’s just shined with a different light. Just as we need the sun to grow, we need the night to process, reflect, remember, cry, rest… Just because the moon doesn’t shine by itself doesn’t mean it’s not always there protecting and…

Ancestors
My face is a face of all of my ancestors. My face is a face of every brave woman who had to protect herself and her family. Of every young child who learned how to communicate for the first time. Of every hunter who courageously wandered through an unpredictable forest. Of every gatherer who patiently…

Trees teach us that we have to ground ourselves before we can expand. Water teaches us that even though life is unpredictable and always changing, the flow of life is always forward. Wind teaches us to trust the things we can’t see since those are the true forces that move us along. Stars teach us…

Noble Steeds
Deer protect their loved ones with their life. Even though man has given them many reasons to leave their home, they have not, and will not ever. The power of community and belonging trumps the fear of their life ending one day sooner. And even though deer may not have heroic deaths, like taking a…
