I’ve been in creator mode over here for the past few weeks. In a lot of ways it has been a quiet, deep, stretching time.

There is a privilege involved in being able to have the time and tools to dig deep to be able to express what’s within. It’s taken me a while to get here and I feel like I’m just getting started.

Spiritually speaking, I’ve been pressed to tend to this gift of cultivating beauty. Robin Wall Kimmerer in her beautiful book, Braiding Sweetgrass, talks about the responsibility we have to tend to our gifting. To take it seriously and then release it to the world as an act of reciprocity. This has been a freeing, humbling and yet empowering thought to me the past few weeks.

Creating beauty is not a linear, rule following process. It’s a quiet whisper much like the voice of God, moving us closer to who we are and what we were made to share here with our dwindling days.
