The Courage to Love Without Rescuing

Image
One of the most revealing lessons I’ve learned — across intimate relationships, friendships, and even work — is this: you cannot love someone into wanting to grow, change, or show up in the ways you hope they will. Believe me, I tried. I made it a mission, a calling almost. If I just loved harder, showed up more, held space longer, maybe they would meet me where I stood. Maybe they would rise. Maybe they would choose themselves. Maybe they would choose us. But that path is a slow erosion. A quiet draining. A complete waste of time and energy in the end. And not because people are bad or unworthy. Often, they are carrying things you cannot see and cannot fix — emotional weight, mental battles, old wounds, patterns that predate you. Sometimes it’s emotional immaturity. Sometimes it’s fear. Sometimes it’s simply a lack of willingness or readiness. And sometimes, the lesson is yours: letting go, surrender, boundaries, and the release of guilt. What I’ve come to understand is this: When yo...

The Need for Control

Image
  One of the best pieces of advice I ever received was this: “Even when a situation feels out of your control, it doesn’t mean that it is out of control.” For a long time, I didn’t understand that. I equated me being in control with me being safe. Control became my shield, my strategy, my habit. And like all habits—especially the ones that feel familiar—it became comfortable, even when it wasn’t serving me. What I’ve learned is that control is often an illusion. The real challenge isn’t the situation itself; it’s the moment when I am safe but my mind insists that I’m not. That’s when I make decisions that don’t serve me or anyone else. That’s when I react instead of respond. That’s when I try to win, prove, shrink, judge, or force an outcome. So I’ve been learning to find the balance. Lately, I’ve started asking myself a simple set of questions: • Am I safe? • Am I present? • Am I making this decision from the moment I’m in—or from fear, ego, habit, or old stories? With pract...

Karma and Choice

Image
  Affirmation: I choose with clarity. I act with intention. I remember my connection to all things.  Each moment invites me to align my inner world with the world I am helping to create. I’ve been sitting with a question that refuses to stay on the surface: How are we to live today, knowing that we shape the world even as it shapes us? Hiro Boga speaks of us as fractals of the Sacred — whole, interconnected, co‑creators with the Great Mystery. That framing pulls me inward. It reminds me that the world isn’t something “out there” happening to us. It’s something we participate in, moment by moment, through the choices we make and the intentions we carry. These aren’t questions the intellect can answer on its own. They ask for something deeper — a focus on the inner world, a steadying of the heart, a willingness to bring our whole selves to the everyday moments where our lives are actually shaped. They ask us to tend to the habits and routines that scaffold our soul’s purpose, s...

Remembering Who I Am

Image
Affirmation: I have what it takes to do hard things, and I move through this world as a child of the Most High — guided, held, and equipped. This morning’s meditation brought a truth back to the surface — one I’ve known, forgotten, and rediscovered many times. It whispered: When we forget ourselves, when we don’t know who we are, our choices reflect that. When we remember that we are Divine, our choices reflect that too. It landed differently today. Maybe because I’ve seen what forgetting looks like. The shrinking. The doubt. The choices made from fear instead of fullness. But remembering — that’s a whole other life. Being Divine isn’t about perfection. It’s knowing I already have what it takes to do hard things. It’s knowing courage lives in me. It’s remembering I am a child of the Most High, created with intention, equipped with strength, and held by grace. When I live from that place, everything shifts. My mistakes don’t define me. My reactions soften. My choices expand. My response...

Everything Is Feedback

Image
Affirmation I honour my feelings, trust my boundaries, and welcome every experience as guidance. I release what no longer serves me and make space for love, clarity, and growth. I am becoming more grounded, more courageous, and more myself every day. Today at the market, I got a reminder I didn’t ask for and definitely didn’t want. A random vendor called me over and asked about someone I severed ties with almost three years ago. He shared updates, good news, casual conversation—but inside, I felt myself tighten. Annoyance washed over me so quickly it made me physically ill. And then came the self‑judgment: Why am I reacting like this? Why does this still bother me? By the time I got back to the car, I was spiraling. I did something I haven’t done in ages—I went on social media to “check up.” That was a mistake. It always is. But even in the middle of that spiral, something in me paused. I took a breath. I reached for the toolkit I’ve been building: breathe, watch your self‑talk, rememb...

Returning to the Place of Enoughness

Image
  Affirmation : “Enoughness lives in me, and I rise from it daily.” I really thought I had this “enoughness” thing figured out. I believed I had done the work — the deep, uncomfortable, liberating work — to recognize my own innate worth. The kind of worth that doesn’t wobble when someone questions you, or when life throws its curveballs, or when the world tries to convince you that you need to be more, do more, shrink more, fix more. I thought I had reached the place where no one could tell me I wasn’t enough — not even me. But life, in its fierce and tender love, has a way of circling back with reminders. It whispers. Then it nudges. Then it taps you on the shoulder. And if you still don’t pay attention, it raises its voice. Not to punish, but to guide. Life will do whatever it takes to get our attention. The question is whether we’re willing to listen. Recently, I realized I had slipped — quietly, subtly — back into old patterns of “not enoughness.” It didn’t happen in one dramat...

Telescope, Courage, and the Call to Become

Image
 Affirmation:  I embrace my journey with honesty and strength, knowing that transformation begins with a single brave choice.  There’s a certain kind of person who stirs something deep in me — not because their life was smooth, but because it wasn’t. I’m most inspired by the ones who turned their lives around, who listened to that invisible tug inside whispering, “There’s more for you.” The ones who took their pain, their rejection, their early losses, and shaped something beautiful out of it. That kind of courage is what I’m learning to embody. And somehow, Telescope brought all of that into sharp focus for me. Walking through the community, listening to stories, watching the youth step into leadership, I kept feeling this quiet truth: transformation is not abstract here. It’s lived. It’s practiced. It’s earned. This part of Telescope is a place where people have had every reason to give up, yet they choose to rise — again and again. Then I met Mr. Mikey. A man who once ...
