What I share with you, you will hold in confidence. What you share with me I will hold in confidence.

I cannot trust you and be in a trusting relationship with you if you do not act from a place of integrity and encourage me to do the same. (3/5)

I have been SPOILED by learning to drive in the metro Philly area and by roadtripping in the summer. My patience and my tolerance for highway speeds less than 60mph have shrunk significantly 😵‍💫🏎️

“That’s what silence steals: connection. It convinces you that you’re the only one drowning, when the truth is, there are millions of us treading the same water. And the moment you speak—even shakily, even in fragments—you realize you’re not alone." https://twloha.com/blog/silence-isnt-peace/

If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself.

This is an absolutely valid mood 😪

I’m not entirely sure why I indulge in this vice every month. Perhaps it’s to gain more understanding or clarity as to why people do this as a habit. Or maybe I have a newfound thrill of taking stupid risks after playing it safe my whole life. Who knows? I’m here for a good time, not a long time 🪦

great appreciation I now have for the deity and for those who are passionate about keeping her story alive. This brief dive into the mythology was definitely an enlightening experience, and has reignited the fires of curiosity about the world as I move through it. (7/7)

legend, FULL STOP.

Based on what I’ve briefly learned, “daughter of Pele” is a compliment that was rooted in a superficial meaning, but I now accept and embody on a spiritual level. I accept the honorific not primarily because I can relate to and identify with a few of her traits, but for the (6/7)

it’s amazing to me that she is not feared, but rather widely respected and revered by native Hawaiians and keepers of her story. Truly, the juxtaposition of her fiery temper and nature, and her tender care for land and life is nothing short of respectable. She IS the woman, the myth, and the (5/7)

but her indomitable spirit escaped to the Big Island, and she made a volcanic crater her home. She’s gracious enough to occasionally to take the form of a young woman in a red muumuu (inspiration for the Painted Lady in ATLA?) to warn locals of impending eruptions.

Given her volatile nature, (4/7)

protective of what’s hers: (some of) her siblings, her land, and her home. She is a creator and a destroyer: her fires and lava flow ravage the land, but they also provide the opportunity for new growth and land formations. One of her sisters even killed her and made a hill out of her bones, (3/7)

I was not prepared for the diversity of the legends surrounding her origins and her life. The complexities certainly add to the cultural reverence, almost to the point of humility on my part.

Pele is fiery; she is the goddess of fire and volcanoes, after all. She’s passionate. She’s fiercely (2/7)

Someone in my life jokingly referred to me as the “daughter of Pele.” My knowledge of her at the time was rudimentary and extremely limited, so I simply went with it. This description has popped up in my head more frequently recently, and stoked my curiosity about the goddess herself. Honestly (1/7)

Whoever linked me to a metal cover of a HILLSONG UNITED song, you’re the real one. Lyrics are ehh, I actually liked this better than the original. Made my nighttime ritual metal 🤘

I’m not entirely sure how to describe my current mood, but the closest I can get is, the tension in music before the chord resolves itself. It’s discordant, but also anticipatory? I’m fully embracing this paradox
