🌙✨ Your voice is a thread of starlight,
woven through Mercury’s song.

Cosmic Muse is an invitation…
to remember your soul was born to reclaim your truth,
to let your words flow

To dreamers, the seekers, the muses in waiting—
your voice is your magic.
Are you ready to let it rise?

A decade ago, during an intense 'season' at the 9-5, I went outside to my back yard and saw this on the giant oak tree. I snapped a photo and the next day at work shared it with my team. Munch's 'The Scream," revisited.
Fitting for the state of the union.

You’re not too much.
You’re just not meant to be muted.

I wrote Cosmic Muse Vol. I: Your Voice (Mercury) for the woman who’s done censoring herself to fit the feed.

My article, The Healing Power of Poetry: Embracing Resilience through Grief is now out in Get Griefy magazine (Issue 5). Available online & in print. The print edition, a collab with the Global Resilience Project, was featured in the Oscar's Harvest gifting lounge last Thursday.

Am surprised the GOP trickle down economics believers don't wake the f-ck up; it's not just the folks fired or RIFed who are out of a job -- restaurants, the Uber drivers, drycleaners, (insert service providers) are losing customers. James Carville once said 'It's the economy, stupid!' #magamorons
This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"There are plenty of contractors going under".

A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.

PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

Ask those in mourning about their lost loved ones. Ask them to share stories, show pictures. Too often people are afraid to ask because it makes them uncomfortable if they could find comfort in sharing stories, you may be giving them a precious gift on their journey through grief. Imagine that.

Had a great conversation with David Trotter at Awakened Magazine about unlocking your creative zen and the healing power of poetry.

I share how workplace stress led me to exploring creative outlets such as poetry & painting.

Writing poetry...

Vivre pour créer, ou créer pour vivre? Live to create, or create to live?

Poetry prompt
Write a poem to explore the healing power of the sun, whether it's the way sunlight nourishes life, creates warmth, or represents renewal.
How does your connection to the sun inspire healing in your life or in the world around you?
