❤️🔥My wild ❤️🔥
For my Wild Women,
❤️🔥If you have yet to be called an incorrigable, defiant woman,
don’t worry, there is still time.
❤️🔥I’ve seen women insist on cleaning everything in the house before they could sit down to write... and you know it’s a funny thing about housecleaning... it never comes to an end. Perfect way to stop a woman. A woman must be careful to not allow over-responsibility (or over-respectabilty) to steal her necessary creative rests, riffs, and raptures. She simply must put her foot down and say no to half of what she believes she “should” be doing. Art is not meant to be created in stolen moments only.
❤️🔥 I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.
❤️🔥 It is worse to stay where one does not belong at all than to wander about lost for a while and looking for the psychic and soulful kinship one requires.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of you beautiful souls. My prayer for us is that we learn to feel fully alive again and again and again. We devote ourselves to being present and enjoying the simple pleasures in life. My prayer is that we reestablish a relationship with rest, our bodies, our breath and our Soul so we can consciously create the world anew.
