Sweetness is here.

Sweetness is here, kissing at all things in me broken or confused...this mantra I created when I was sad is strangely useful to my heart in this time of sadness and change. And hope. I have so many emotions in my body and soul right now and I’ve been doing my best to feel them and witness them and have compassion for myself. This new year starts bittersweet but still sweet. My whole life I’ve known sadness and disappointment but have tried to find sweetness in my pain, like my black and queer ancestors. That practice is serving me today, taking it moment to moment. Being grateful even though I’m sad. Starting the new decade with being fiercely tender and spiritually connected, crying with and holding my wifey and giving thanks for our life. Wishing everyone meditations in sweetness as the decade blossoms open with limitlessness. It ain’t easy in these streets, y’all. This is me in Cameroon this fall in Ngowo’s mamas garden in my ancestral land being grateful and having joy.
