There's so much for you to live for.


Hey there, conscious creator!

I’m writing this after a few beautiful days traveling through the California coast and just before I head off to Hawaii.

While I’m technically on a little break, I wanted to share a short passage I wrote this morning to remind myself (and maybe you, too) that no matter what’s unfolding in life, there’s still so much to live for.

I hope it stirs something true and alive in you.

There Is So Much To Live For

Some mornings, I wake before the sun and feel like I’ve already won.

Not because I’ve conquered anything, but because something ancient in me is finally at peace.

There’s a part of us—older than our names and younger than this breath—that knows how to listen. That remembers what we forgot when we learned to perform, to push, to prove. That part doesn’t care about algorithms or productivity hacks or whether anyone is watching. It knows the sacred weight of birdsong. It bows to the ocean without needing a reason. It smiles just because it can.

This part of us is feral, holy, and full of voltage.

It is not logical.
But it is precise.

It doesn’t hustle.
But it arrives right on time.

As said in the Tao Te Ching, it "drinks from the Great Mother's breasts” and laughs at the absurdity of being human and eternal at the same time. It kisses the ground in the same breath it looks to the stars. It learns for the joy of remembering. It creates for the thrill of aliveness. It is poetry in motion and silence in form. It is the soul that never stopped singing, even when you forgot the words.

And when you touch it—even for a second…

You remember:

I am not behind.
I am not broken.
I am not too late.

I am exactly where I belong...
with a heart wide enough to carry it all.

There is so much to live for.

And you likely haven’t even started dancing yet.

Hi there, Reader! I must admit... I used to say things like… “That’s just how I am.” “I’ve always been this way.” And I believed it. Believed it like a scar — something that had formed, closed, and would never soften. But that wasn’t truth. That was training. A kind of loyalty I didn’t know I was allowed to outgrow. Because that sentence, “That’s just who I am,” isn’t self-awareness. It’s self-defense. A shield disguised as a mirror. And it works. It keeps us safe from expectation. It keeps...
