Digital Diary

𝐆𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡: Digital Diary #12 (5-1-25) I LOVE paradox. How can two opposing things both be true? Nothing about it makes sense, YET somehow it makes complete sense in its nonsensicality. You can, indeed, feel the full spectrum of emotions all at once. And when you do you sit in the eye of the storm where the calm awaits and holds you in an intense, grounding presence. I am so grateful for Ramen, for our special fur babies that come into this world asking for nothing and giving everything. For the unconditional love and joy they teach. For the fleeting, yet deeply impactful time, they are here. While death can feel sudden when it arrives, it’s no mystery that it’s always been on its way. I hold this close everyday and it’s what grounds me in presence and compassion. I love you all, happy 1st of May🫶🏽🌈🦋🌅

Digital Diary #9 (Part 1): Becoming the Rainbow, 4-22-2025 It’s been so fulfilling to come back to my art. I didn’t realize how much I missed the freedom of creating and connecting to myself through that process. I do it all the time with my tattoo clients and forgot I needed that one on one time with myself too. I’m excited to continue working on these older unfinished pieces and bring them to life with the new energy of my current self🌈🌻🌌

Digital Diary #9: Early morning conversations with myself, 4-15-2025 I’ve realized I’m the only true early bird in my house-and that’s not to say everyone else sleeps in. My whole family gets up early and it’s calm, gentle and quiet. When when I wake up, just like the birds outside, I’m ready to have a full-blown conversation…like I wasn’t just knocked out for the past 8 hours🤣 It actually works out beautifully for my digital diary entries. The mornings have become a space to talk to myself, reflect on my dreams, or explore whatever’s bubbled to the surface post-rest. Hanging out with myself, making art, journaling, dreaming, and drinking cacao-this has become my new routine, and I’m SO grateful. Have a great now🫶🏽🌈🦋🌅

Digital Diary #8: The Art of showing up for yourself, 4-12-2025 When I made this video I was so deeply rooted in my truth-it felt so good, so free. But my mind couldn’t understand why I had to post my crusty, just woke up self😂 So I let my sleep on it… This morning, I woke up at 5:55am to the word: whistleblower. The universe was calling me out. I can’t stand on the edge of my truth. (I can’t save my butt and my face too) I have to dive in. So, crusty or not here I come🌱 When I reread my poetry I usually find that I hide messages that land exactly when my future self is able to hear… 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙖 𝙫𝙞𝙧𝙪𝙨, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙨𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙨?

Digital Diary #6: You are the author of your own story, 4-1-2025 Two pieces from my digital diary, shared together as my truths continue to merge into one. The cracks of the tower were really the fissures of the current reality breaking open, a portal into the unknown just waiting to be explored. Most of my poetry comes through like a whisper, that I can only hear when my mind is quiet and my heart is open to the flow🌀 𝘼 𝙢𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙙 𝙢𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧:
As you begin to chip away at the plaster
that encases the spirit within,
you’ll find that it feels
like falling from grace-
like you committed a sin. All the narratives you thread
through your ever changing skin,
unravel like old books
passed down from your kin. Loose pages will drift
and fly away with the wind,
and all you’ll be left with
is what was hidden within. 
The closest you’ll feel to source. What’s a book with no binding,
no pages for finding,
no chapters reminding.
Just a new story, waiting to unfold.
Pure energy for your new self to mold-
a story your truest self foretold. As @erykahbadu would sing…𝘗𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘨𝘰 Have a great now🌈🦋🌌🌱🌟
