I am happy and honored to announce that I’ve just won first prize in the Fountain writing competition!
“The Last Heart’s Dance” pesents a message I’ve yearned to share with the world, with no expectations of winning. I didn’t think it would resonate so deeply with others, but somehow, it did. And that means more to me than words can fully express
And perhaps the most beautiful part of this experience is that I didn’t just receive a prize myself, one of my greatest friends, a person I appreciate far more than she even knows, @!16244 , was also awarded!
We are winning together, and that fills my heart with so much joy
I also want to give a heartfelt shoutout to @jessyjeanne , because she was the one who shared this competition with me in the first place. If it weren’t for her, I might have ended up posting the piece somewhere else, and none of this might have happened
My friends are the best!!!
Thank you!🌹

"We need the Axe of Satisfaction to cut through the Swallowing Evergreen Trees. Their evergreen desire to exploit us is only rivalled by our evergreen desire to give in. The Netflix documentary Buy Now! The Shopping Conspiracy tells us that this behaviour is deeply damaging to the world we live in.
Because the moment we find a sense of satisfaction, our need to elevate our status through overconsumption of objects and experiences will diminish. We will no longer have status anxiety and we will worry far less about how the world perceives us."

You’re welcome (for what I’m almost finished writing)
Not every day someone drops a great title for a (past) work of mine. That's super special in my book.

Consider this:
"Nothing is everything.
Nothing is nice."
"Nothing is everything.
Nothing is nice."
Yesterday, I reserved a few hours to finally put into words something that’s been growing inside me for a long time… I missed it more than I realized…
The piece is called “The Heart’s Last Stand". It’s a 2000+ word journey where I share why I believe now, more than ever, it’s essential to follow your heart
I talk about how listening to mine shaped my path, and why, as the world gets reshaped by tech faster than ever, staying true to our inner voice might be the greatest advantage we have
The world is changing. Skills are becoming commodities. AI is rewriting entire industries. But there’s one thing no machine can replicate: our soul, our authenticity, our purpose
You don’t need to chase anything outside yourself to stay ahead. You just need to trust what’s already within you
I’d love for you to read it, and even more, to share your thoughts so we can expand the conversation. Thank you!🌹

Emotional Healing: Collective Truths
Healing is not linear
It is a path, a journey that we must take.
It creates who we are,
what we’ve been through,
and all of our journeys in this life.
Since we only have this life,
we must be able to help understand,
transmute,
and create this distortion into our reality,
choosing what we hold on to,
knowing that any range of emotion
is acceptable and okay,
and that we should choose
to see it with love and grace.
Being able to have these human expressions
is somewhat of a gift that we forget.
In this lifetime,
we have but one chance
to show the world what we here are meant to do
and heal this great divide that has been placed.
Choosing to live
and find
and stay in that higher vibration,
that uplifted dimension,
and taking these human bodies
and treating them with kindness.

TY for sharing. Here is my first creation with this tech

Emotional Healing: Collective Truths
Healing is not a straightened line,
But a path we walk, a moment in time.
It shapes our essence, our trials, our tears,
A journey of lifetimes, across many years.
In this single life, we must choose,
To transmute the pain, to find the hues.
Of light and shadow, we hold within,
Choosing grace where fear has been.
Every emotion, a gift to embrace,
Love and acceptance, the threads we trace.
The human form, a vessel divine,
A chance to align, to heal, to shine.
We stand in this world with purpose grand,
To bridge the divide with a gentle hand.
To rise, uplift, and vibrate higher,
To burn with love, an eternal fire.
One lifetime, one chance, we hold this key,
To heal the world and set hearts free.
With kindness and grace, we shift our fate,
Creating harmony, it’s never too late.

Learned today that there is a word for the age group am a part of: quinquagenarian
I should do a video on this. I like the word. We put something of ourselves in everything we do.
Spent a lot of time going places recently, made me think about transit more broadly and how maybe we overindex on the destinations.

I'm learning words again like a toddler. Only that I'm not doing so to speak often but to speak correctly. Weighing the roll of every word that slips out of my mouth. If life and death lies in the tongue - I must become life to the dying. I must resurrect myself with my words.
