“I’m excited and yet my heart is still, Paris. It’s still, like the space between you and my inner self. That space isn’t empty either. Everything I put in there hasn’t gone anywhere. Everything I put in there is what closes the gap between us that…” (En savoir plus)

Decided
“It took me a hell of a journey to decide what I truly want. And it took me multiple heavens of a journey to decide that the means does not matter as long as it feels correct. As long as I don’t lose my alignment with my true self…” (En savoir plus)
Listen
“I’m listening, Paris. To the waves in your river. To the wind by the canal. To the past-midnight steps my boat shoes drag. To the growing space between the last kiss and the next. I’m listening to the silence that is trying to heal the banging noisesç…” (En savoir plus)
Light in the heat
“I’ve been feeling light and reassured – my trust in myself playing a big part, I haven’t had time to question the ideologies and if they are aligned – alright, maybe I shouldn’t trust myself that much. Is this how capitalism creeps into our lives? No…” (En savoir plus)
Precious perception
“So, anyone and anything outside of me is the problem? No, a problem isn’t a mismatch between what is and what you want it to be; a problem is a misalignment between what is and how good you feel about it…” (En savoir plus)
Free and in love
“A subtle kind of touch yet constant, which creates these capillary waves inside my heart, has happened; an interaction with the wind, the subtle yet constant wind, has happened. No splash as when a rock is thrown like a punch, which my heart was used to; this…” (En savoir plus)

“Everything that brings, potentially or eventually, someone inward and closer to understanding themselves, and, eventually, understanding others, or vice versa, is good in my book. All that can flow with my river. In fact, I could probably soothe you for hours in these cases and I’d feel content…” (En savoir plus)
Familiar unknown
“I have been peeling the layers, shedding the skins a lot more aggressively these days and my discernment is a lot more on point too. Changes have been happening quicker and instead of seeing it as instability I can’t help but recognise it as momentums being gained…” (En savoir plus)
Open, always
“I’m sure you do. And I will always try to understand when you can’t show that you do. Come to think about it, my principles and philosophy are the things that often cause me a heartbreak. But might as well, as they’re also the very things that put me back together again…” (En savoir plus)
Tant mieux !
“What about love? … Love is my given state, my default setting, even if I had to sit at the Eurostar lounge drinking crémant on my own as usual last night. But I didn’t, and tant mieux !” (En savoir plus)
Softer
“I sometimes wonder how many can take you, the full depth and breadth of you, like I can. I sometimes wonder how many, if anyone, can take me, the full depth and breadth of me, my undeniable, demanding presence, like you can. I wonder if I can take anyone…” (En savoir plus)
Balance
“In fact, I’d love to learn to drop my ego even more, if that’s possible – that’s possible, and if that means more truths will be revealed and eventually accepted. My power is in my ability to stay soft in the face of difficulties. I care more about balance…” (En savoir plus)
