'We are taught to be afraid of the dark. 
We are taught to be afraid of difference. We are taught to be afraid of each other. 
We are taught to be afraid. Period.
Difference is a construct. Difference separates us. 
Separation makes it possible to harm one another and feel justified in doing so. 
There are differences between us. 
That’s what makes us beautiful. Differences can be feared or respected;

choose

When you’re deeply sensitive, love is ecstasy. Music is godlike. 
Heartache is a wide, somatic wound. Visual natural beauty is jewel-drenched, wild bliss. Tension and conflict are muscle tightening and toxic, straight down to the cells. 
So how do you hold it all? 
You rinse, re-centre, and remain clear. 
You recycle your sensitivity by propelling yourself and others to create 
waves of change in a super starving world. 
Direct your passion by spreading your heart only across what clearly matters most. Surround yourself with the souls and spaces that groove alongside your own- 
the ones that also desire to chase the beauty, 
courage and freedom we’re all here to teach each other. 
Choose love over fear and let go of all the rest, 
breathing what isn’t best for you straight out of your bones. 
Remember-there is power in the body. 
Harness it for the greater good, and allow nothing confusing, 
peace disrupting, or hurtful stand in its way.

Victoria Erickson


Love is not an equation, it is not a contract, and it is not a happy ending. 
Love is the slate under the chalk, the ground that buildings rise, and the oxygen in the air. 
It is the place you come back to, no matter where your headed.

Then the feeling moves on. It does not collapse; it is not whisked away. 
It simply moves on, like a train that stops at a small country station, 
stands for a while, and then continues out of sight.



Michael Cunningham, from The Hours

Always say 'Yes' to the present moment. 
What could be more futile, more insane, 
than to create inner resistance to what already is?
