Life is an adventure…

Sometimes that adventure is full of awe and light and presence.

And sometimes it feels heavy and hard.

Habits and automatic reactions will take over and the fire will rage. Thoughts spin in anxiety, or they are covered by the wet blanket of depression.

When life is heavy and hard, core thoughts, learned from traumatic experiences, relay outdated instructions on how to be a human in this messy world.

Then the adventure is lost,

We forget the sunrise, how the wind whispers over the ocean, or how the sky tastes on the mountain

And we cannot find our way home again. 

Home in those moments of awe, light, and presence.

We can find our way back there.
