3 years - one moment at a time

A year ago in South Florida, as I was just starting to expand my comfort bubble by being more intentional, more vulnerable, trusting my intuition and so on… the bubble suddenly burst from social uncertainty with Covid-19 and family tragedy.

When the pandemic initially hit, life slowed down and I felt more connected through the physical disconnections. There was finally a point of synergy with the self-care quarantine I had been in for a couple of years… and with the instant introspection millions of others were thrusted into. The energy from our frequencies were connecting and manifesting themselves in the form of community awareness, protest, creative expression, acts of service, etc. That was the immediate radiant silver lining from the collective isolation.

Then, the sudden loss of my big sister was most definitely a blur. At first, I totally acted like nothing had even happened. Grief was knocking and I was not opening the door. The Spiritual Universe was telling this caterpillar to emerge from its cocoon and fly back home… so I did just that and wow, it felt good to come back and allow nature to help nurture myself and my family.

I have periods of deep sadness, insecurity and fear… but I know those moments are temporary. The work I’ve done on awareness building allows me to live more fully in between those temporary fleeting thoughts and not in them. Or at least less often.

My spiritual eyes have opened to additional teachings from the works of, Thich Nhat Hanh, Ram Dass & Eckhart Tolle, who have helped me learn more about my ego, mindfulness, unconditional love and simply 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘸.

I decided on Puerto Vallarta this week because my sister loved it here and her last visit in 2015 was cut short by a hurricane evacuation… so it was time to come finish up her trip.

Much love to all my loved ones. Keep glowin, keep growin - keep goin!

I am eternally grateful.
