Feeling it Out Here for the Collective: A Channeled Moment

First things first. Believe in yourself. The middle is always messy. The energy is amplified like never before, right now. So, slow it down. Listen to chill music. Laugh. Drink tea. Take a walk. Don't worry. It does no good. In fact it makes it harder to problem solve + create. Also, take a minute to remember how far you've come, how loved you are and the unique gifts you have. Cause you're great. Stay in gratitude, chip away at your dream, and it will unfold. Realize what is a distraction and get that out of the way. And of course, hold onto your seats for this election! The highs and lows of 2020 rival any roller coaster, and anything can and will happen this month. Stay cool, stay grounded. Mantra for the month: Thank you.

My Poem for Lake Michigan

Sometimes I think 
I love you too much.
Is that possible?
To love too much?
Well, sometimes I think 
I love you too much.
And I don't even think 
I want to see you sometimes,
so I don't. 
And I don't want to see you because I love you too much. 
Sometimes. I think that.
