A Friendly or Hostile World; Which Do You Choose to Live In?
In the realm of wise questions, one in particular has left an indelible mark on my life: "Do you live in a hostile or friendly universe?" This profound inquiry shaped a mantra that I carry with me to this day, a mantra that has been a guiding light through some of the darkest periods of my life.
Conversations That Led Me to Paradise
In times of hardship and uncertainty, the power of honest conversations cannot be overstated. I've found that having supportive and loving people to talk to provided me with a safe space to express my deepest fears, shed tears, and ultimately allow love and healing to permeate my life.
The Beauty of Scars: From Chaos and Pain to Peaceful Living
Accusations and a fractured identity all came from this statement, "You don’t look Native, are you sure you are?" These words, more accusation than question, have haunted me throughout my life. Each utterance chipped away at my already fractured sense of self, triggering a struggle with an inner truth. Within pain and chaos lies the potential for transformative change, self-discovery, and the creation of something beautiful out of pain. Embrace your scars, see the beauty within them, and celebrate how they have shaped you and your viewpoint of life.
