LIVING Update — In the Midst of Life
There are moments in life when everything changes, not gradually, but all at once...
There were moments that asked everything of us.
And now, here we are...
And in their place, something quieter has emerged.
A deeper Trust.
A profound Appreciation.
A reverence for life that cannot be spoken, only LIVED.

There are moments when support is offered with genuine care, and moments when it lives more in words than in lived presence. And even within great love and support, there are spaces in life that ask us to stand fully within ourselves.
Not alone, but in a kind of presence that no one else can occupy for us.
This, too, is part of LIVING.
For now, I am here, PRESENT.
Caring.
Listening.
Honoring what is unfolding.
Being the “ing” of life.
There is no rush to define what comes next.
Much Love & Honor,
Terri Akaya Malek
P.S. I wanted to honor and appreciate my dear husband Tim for all the amazing journeys we have had over the last several years, and the many that will come, in whatever capacity that is. Here is just a mere highlight of some of our times together in travels.
