Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)

I wrote this post a year ago, but the words necessary to appropriately convey it took a lot longer to set in. I used to struggle with anxiety, especially around the holidays. Not the run-of-the-mill holiday stress—this was the kind of anxiety that wrapped itself around my chest, whispering, “Someone’s going to die. Something terribleContinueContinue reading “Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)”

Sunday Sessions: The Quiet Journey of Spiritual Maturity and the Challenge of Resistance

Have you ever encountered someone so convinced of their own “wisdom” that they dismissed anything outside their understanding as foolish or wrong? Someone who, rather than engaging thoughtfully or with curiosity, sought instead to control the narrative—to shut down dialogue and assert themselves as “right”? It can be unsettling, even frustrating, to come across suchContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Quiet Journey of Spiritual Maturity and the Challenge of Resistance”

From Pain to Purpose: How Faith, Integrity, and Gratitude Transformed My Trauma into Growth

What if the greatest tragedies of your life were actually the catalysts for your transformation? What if faith, honesty, and gratitude could take you from the depths of despair to a life filled with purpose and peace? I’ve lived through my fair share of pain—loss, caregiving, exhaustion, and moments of doubt so deep I almostContinueContinue reading “From Pain to Purpose: How Faith, Integrity, and Gratitude Transformed My Trauma into Growth”

Answering the Call: Living in Alignment with God’s Purpose

In my last post, I opened up about how exhausting healing and awakening can feel—how relentless the process can seem when it strips us down to our barest, most vulnerable selves. That post came from a raw, honest moment of struggle, a “come to Jesus” moment where I felt like I had nothing left toContinueContinue reading “Answering the Call: Living in Alignment with God’s Purpose”

Embracing The Seasons Within

I had a talk with myself this morning, as one needs to do every now and then. I don’t know if anyone besides me needs to hear this, but just in case, it went like this: Just like the trees, the grass, and the flowers, you have seasons. You’re not meant to bloom all yearContinueContinue reading “Embracing The Seasons Within”

The Sacredness of Sexual Energy: A Spiritual Call for Awareness

Disclaimer: This is not an opinion piece. This is not judgment. This is an urgent spiritual message. Today, I found myself broken open by a story—a story that pulled at the very fibers of my soul and left me sobbing, not from judgment, but from a deep spiritual ache. It was about a young womanContinueContinue reading “The Sacredness of Sexual Energy: A Spiritual Call for Awareness”

The Art of Becoming: A Reflection on Kurt Vonnegut’s Words

Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage—no matter how well or badly—not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soul grow. Seriously! I mean starting right now, do art and do it for the rest of yourContinueContinue reading “The Art of Becoming: A Reflection on Kurt Vonnegut’s Words”

Lay it down.

The Weight We Carry What are you holding onto, and why? Are you carrying the burden of proving your point to someone who isn’t even paying attention? Are you weighed down by grudges, betrayals, or the need to justify yourself? The truth is, holding onto these things doesn’t serve you. It hinders your growth, blocksContinueContinue reading “Lay it down.”

Actions and Consequences: A Universal Truth Across Belief Systems

I recently found myself facing the difficult realization that I needed to release someone—for the highest good of both of us. It’s never easy when God calls us to turn away from someone we care about deeply, especially when every part of us wants to hold on. But sometimes, no matter how much we careContinueContinue reading “Actions and Consequences: A Universal Truth Across Belief Systems”

Sunday Sessions: Living, Rather Than Looking, Forward

Life has an odd way of convincing us that fulfillment lies somewhere in the future—a destination waiting to be reached, a chapter still to be written. We spend so much time looking forward to what’s next: the next milestone, the next goal, the next version of ourselves that feels more healed, accomplished, or whole. It’sContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: Living, Rather Than Looking, Forward”
