| “It is a daily decision to dig deep into your soul, align with the woman you were born to be, and do the things you are called to do.”
Mhmmm. Yes, I think that captures the sound accurately, this feeling. This morning is a yawn and a stretch. It is reaching and it is grounding. The handsome shade of gray. The peach that spreads across the sky when the sun makes its glorious rise.
I am sharing my space again. A choice I would not have made, and a choice I still have yet to decide. The solitude and silence had been blissful. The complete lack of care I had to show to another when at home because no one was there. You feel me? But when another arrived, 12 days before the release of New Black, it is either help from the divine or distraction from the pit. There is no in-between.
I can say that I get a little too off, a little too strange when left entirely to my own devices. And I can also say that complete focus is a must and I can give a fuck about a compromise. I shall not. Not about the temperature nor the sound or anything I want to do at any given moment. Not right now. Nah. My artist is working her ass off and she deserves space. She deserves to come first. She deserves care.
Today I’m taking her to the park. And then to get something good to eat. And then to a flotation chamber and then to a massage. And then to some more good food.
