Real Life Reflections by Amy & Friends
Marbles
Marbles. Marbles. Marbles. Rattling around in my brain. Marbles. Marbles. Marbles. Keeping me from sleeping again. Thoughts. Thoughts. Thoughts. Those are the marbles at play. Thoughts. Thoughts. Thoughts. Leave them for the next day. Ideas. Ideas. Ideas. Grab 'em and...
The elements of me
The rain is a symbol. Droplets falling….. Each drop is a piece of who I am. The strike of lightning is a reminder. Lighting the sky….. Each bolt to guide me in the dark. The thunder is my voice. Loud rumbles echo….. Each one just as important as the last. The wind is...
Come, let’s go find her…
Did you find who you have been looking for? She is right there inside of you. Did you check behind the walls of hurt? Sometimes she sits there and runs her hands on the bricks. Did you look inside the box of rage? There are times where she opens the box and removes...
Longing

My letter from God

My Letter to Money
Dear Money, I feel like we’ve had and long and sorted past together. I haven’t always understood you. Honestly, I resented you for the longest time. I thought you only helped others and I didn’t deserve what you had to offer. I know I was wrong. It was...
How My Family & I Celebrated Diwali
Saal Mubarak, Diwali festivities are coming to an end. This was a socially distant, low key Diwali season for my family of three. We made a conscious shift and focused on the divine world of formless (contentment, abundance, compassion, acceptance) and not the usual...
