Thank you so much dear Libby! for echoing that deep truth. Feeling into this web of connection—seen and unseen—has been one of the most beautiful parts of this whole journey. I’m grateful to be held in it with you.

Stephanie,

Your description of the horseback ride up the mountain and the merging of your spirits was vivid, terrifying, electrifying, and soothing--somehow simultaneously. Thank you for the reminder that the concept that we are in any way separate, is an illusion.

Love, Michael

Michael, thank you. That means so much. It really was all of those things at once—somehow holding fear and awe and peace in the same breath. And yes… the illusion of separation keeps dissolving in the most unexpected ways. Grateful to be walking this path with you.

Your strength and your clarity continue to amaze me, my friend. And your writing, too. Poetry.

Thank you, my friend—that means so much coming from you. I hope things in CR are a little less crazy than the U.S. these days! Sending love from this side of the chaos.

Your words went straight to my heart. Thank you for seeing me so clearly. Something is happening—I feel it too—and I’m just trying to stay out of the way and let it move through. It means the world to know you’re walking with me, even if not literally. LOVE YOU SO MUCH, truly.

I felt your message land in a deep place. Thank you for reaching toward me with such love and presence. This season feels like a threshold, and I’m doing my best to stay attuned to what’s asking to come through. Knowing you’re out there, witnessing, means more than I can say. I love you very much.
