When life builds pressure, we need conscious valves—not escapes—to stay present, soft, and whole. This is how we return to ourselves.

When you’re in the right environment, you don’t need to force growth. You just bloom—again and again—with ease.

I built a bubble to stay steady in a broken world—only to learn I must let it soften to truly live, connect, and make change.

What if saying I miss you is casting a spell of absence? I’m choosing language that creates love, not separation.

Without clocks, I lost all sense of time. But maybe the invitation isn’t to escape it — it’s to remember sacred time within.

We were never meant to do this alone. Not healing. Not dreaming. Not becoming. The Created Life is a return to what we once knew: that we are whole, yes — but never meant to be whole in isolation. It’s time to remember the village, to reweave the circle, to let ourselves lean, ask, and belong again. Because true power isn’t in doing it all alone — it’s in becoming together.

A treaty is not just a document — it’s a sacred agreement, a living relationship meant to last “as long as the sun shines, the grass grows, and the rivers flow.” Across the world, these promises have been broken, and yet the land remembers. The work of our time is to return to right relationship — with the Earth, with each other, and with the generations yet to come.

We call ourselves “human beings” without question, but the name was never meant to hold all of us. Rooted in “earth-born man,” it erased the feminine and narrowed who counted as fully human — a narrowing still alive today in our language, laws, and systems. When we name ourselves differently, we reclaim what was left out and see ourselves whole.

Loneliness can slip in anywhere — on a crowded train, in a room full of friends, even in the glow of your phone at midnight. The world calls it a crisis, but it’s really a signal: proof you are still human in a culture that has forgotten how to gather. Connection can be rebuilt, not with grand gestures, but with small, timeless acts — a shared meal, a lingering conversation, a glance that says, I see you.

In a circle of open hearts, a friend’s words reminded me how easily we build invisible walls — generation against generation, difference against difference. But our differences are the colours of the quilt, not the reason to tear the fabric. When we sit together without agenda, as I did in my twenties with women decades ahead of me, wisdom flows. The walls dissolve, and all that’s left is the weaving.

Communication is more than the transfer of information — it is ceremony. Being is the altar, Frequency the song, Reception the circle. When we tend all three, words become seeds that can grow trust, healing, and transformation. Western models give clarity and speed; ceremonial ways bring depth and connection. Held together, they give our words both precision and soul, allowing them to move not just minds, but hearts.

For much of my life, I saw people as broken and believed it was my job to save them. Even after learning to love myself, a quiet “but” remained—seeing others as needing help to reach wholeness. This year, that “but” disappeared. I now trust each person’s sovereignty, holding space for them to remember their own wholeness, knowing love flows cleanest when it isn’t trying to fix, only to be.

I studied philosophy for years—Plato, Aristotle, Socrates—taught they were the origins. Africa was absent. Yesterday, I learned Plato studied in Egypt, that Herodotus documented this lineage. I felt grief, rage, betrayal. How could this not be taught? But with the fire came humility. My education is decades old. What’s changed? Who’s restoring truth? This is my return to grace, to inquiry, to remembering the roots. Philosophy didn’t begin in Greece. It flowed through it.

When we collapse biological sex, gender, and energy into one rigid identity, we limit what it means to be human. This blog invites us into a deeper conversation — one that moves beyond being right into being in relationship. When we choose dialogue over certainty, we create space for nuance, compassion, and truth to emerge. Not fixed, not binary, but flowing, complex, and real — like each of us.

When we are related, the walls fall down. We stop seeing strangers and start seeing kin. Just one moment of real presence — a question, a glance, a hand held — and the illusion of separation begins to dissolve. Being related reminds us that we were never meant to do life apart. It softens judgment, awakens compassion, and reweaves the sacred thread of our shared humanity. It changes everything — because we remember we were never truly separate to begin with.

You are a miracle, reject any limiting belief that would separate you from the greatest expression of your magnificence . - Amber Howard, CEO/Founder One wouldn't expect to become an Olympic athlete without decades of practice and mastery. So then why do we expect to create the life of our dreams without practice, resilience, and at least a few setbacks? The term "the art of living" encompasses the idea of intentionally crafting and experiencing a meaningful and fulfilling li
