INTRODUCING...
... light to these shadows.

[may 2015. brooklyn, ny.]

--

[for disorders:]
Protect the vessel. Steer the ship. Don’t subjugate yourself. Don’t settle for being a figurehead when in the cut of your cloth, there’s a captain. Protect the vessel. Get healthy. You can’t dedicate yourself to progress & positive change if you don’t have a body.

[for traumas:]
Count each color in groups of three until you see the rainbow around you. That’s all the proof you need that you are here, in this moment, right now. You’re okay. We’re okay. Take note of your breathing. Take it day by day. Feel your feet at rest upon the ground. Preserve yourself. Despite your every fault, your darkest parts are still washed out by your good, never doubt it.

[for sins:]
In this moment, even if just for now, let yourself be blameless. Accept the gift of it. Don’t feel ashamed. Don’t ever be afraid to ask for grace. Let this unfold. Exhale. [you had been holding your breath. what for?] Shake your head. Forgive your heart - it will forsake you, but what’s born of love will never break you. Don’t deny this when you find it, no, repeat it... In this moment, you are absolved & blameless, so let yourself let this go. When it all unfolds, sweetness follows.

[for penance:]
Remember to look up, and rest your back against mine. We’ll take turns with the sword & the shield as we need to. I am now and you are now and now is all there is or will ever be. Shake the compulsion toward compunction if you lie down to remind yourself of the constancy of ground. I’ll turn the lights on. We’ll travel swiftly & safely. Let us navigate the universe. There’s solace in recalling that there’s so much more to every moment than any one of us.
