There is a void in music that only Frank Ocean can fill.

Sit lets have some tea.

Life has a way of making you still and silent, silence is what you need, still we resist the urge to be here it is uncomfortable and disconcerting. Prayer is helpful I light candles to remember who I am, ask for wisdom often, I pray for the wellbeing of my own heart and I ask the same for the world, life is often uncomfortable and disconcerting we weren’t taught how to reach our Gods, our angels and our guides, we use glimpses of what has been passed down and left behind.

Are our dreams still valid and why does joy sit alongside deep suffering, I ask for wisdom of

“Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape.”

— Bell Hooks

[namakaustar]

Bell Hooks, helps us look at how love can be reimagined through a lense that is not patriarchal, that the radical act of devotion to one’s self can in turn be a gift to others, that we can become conscious companions, and not carry the burden of rectifying the imbalances of a neglected and lopsided idea of love alone.

BLACK PRIDE IS NOT RACISM LET US BE

[namakaustar]

Love softens the feeling of fear, it opens you up to the possibility of good, the warmth and comfort on the other side of the unknown.

What are you avoiding?

A question riddles me and excites me at the same time because more often than not the person I avoid the most is myself, the journey towards self as a neurodivergent is often paradoxical, on and off love and hate consumed in unrelenting thoughts and the knowing how but not knowing how to act regardless, is it my brain am I broken or am I living in a world that is the antithesis of a creative like me is the world broken. See it’s interesting to me that the only reason why the question startles me is because I’m still here with me, I’ve lost things, people, money, family, ive faced rejection and yet I am still here, so now with that in mind the person I avoid the most needs me the most, the things I need the most more often than not come from me. So I’m giving it another try.
