Seriously, why are we here?

In this reflective and spiritually grounded piece, the author explores the growing imbalance between ego and spirit in modern life. Through a deeply intuitive lens, she examines how the ego — once meant to simply support the human experience — has expanded beyond its intended role, overshadowing the quieter wisdom of spirit. What unfolds is a compassionate invitation to reconsider how we navigate our emotions, our striving, and our sense of purpose. This writing offers a perspective on why so many people feel overwhelmed or disconnected today, and how returning to balance, allowing, and inner awareness can shift both personal and collective consciousness. It’s a gentle, insightful reminder that questioning, feeling, and recalibrating are all part of the larger evolution we’re living through.

I quit

Here’s something to think about. Well, it’s something I’m thinking about anyway. First of all, the premise of this missive is that I live alone. I spend a lot of time alone. As I’ve mentioned, I work 3 days a week, but before work I’m alone, when I come home Read more
