I feel like I need to read this again to have anything eloquent to say. My mind is a bit of chaos today. But I loved it! You have this way of confusing me and speaking my heart at the same time.🥰

Oh Nida, you always get it. I mean when I write these things, it’s like at the same time I’m illuminating something while also opening more of the mystery. I remember once I asked C what clarity felt like to him and he said and something like, a moment of stillness before curiosity returns. So needless to say, I’m confused, too, but I feel that’s a constant part of the drive to keep creating

Faye, I so appreciate witnessing how you are organically living your way to the center of this through trial and error. That was then. This is now. All of it is allowed. All of the mess that makes us perfectly imperfect and human.

Messy, perfectly imperfect and human. It's always good to be reminded of that. That's one of those lessons that initially is like, well duh, obviously... and in practice is SO MUCH HARDER. grateful to have you here as a witness, Sarah. Thank you

and let's face it, sex always has something rubbing against something else but if that's all it is, with no connectedness, then the post coital era can be emptier than before. Great post, the energy is whomping along. Maslow's hierarchy of needs says we need sex as much as food but there are meals like fast food in a cold car late at night and then there are meals that are memorable. I'm sure I had a good point here but damned if I can remember. 🤪

whomping energy, well that sure feels right. ha ha! 🙃 I do believe you made a point about nourishment anyhow - that fast food in a cold car metaphor is perfect. might scratch the immediate itch, but leaves you even hungrier, even with an apparently fully belly.

reminds me of the lyrics to this song called Plastic.

And I know what it's like to behold and not be held / Funny how a stomach unfed / Seems satisfied 'cause it's swell and swollen.

Really a lovely song, very soothing for me.

This is fantastic, Faye! There’s something profound about being both bothered and a bit lost by life’s choices—that’s usually where the real change happens. Your vision for Feed the Muse sounds like a beautiful place for people to explore their own creative chaos. Looking forward to seeing how it unfolds

Thank you for sharing part of journey. I feel a connection through a mutual journey. I believe a huge part of my spiritual awakening was due to going at life as fast as I could go. Go hard or go home. The life experience I gained by this is so important to who I am. Having the choice to steal to feed myself or beg to feed myself at my lowest point. Choosing to beg rather than steal(was in a foreign country so could not work) was a very humbling experience that changed my journey. I always felt this experience opened the door to my Soul through the love I felt from the Beautiful Amazing Souls who helped me. These Souls gave me unconditional Love which allowed me to finally think I was worthy of Loving myself. Love of everyone around me and Love of myself I believe was the catalyst for my journey to Enlightenment. May the Divine keep shining on you
