Hello loves, I've been away for a while but I'm back now... Must've received @zdoggmd 's bat signal, because I too am going through (yet another!) dying. I've been catching up on content and listening to Z's description of how physical it can be is deeply resonant.
Currently my Mum (Mom) is dying of metastasised cervical cancer over in the UK while I am in Australia. I visited her last year, but won't be present with her for this. Although I am also fully present for this. I guess all that is really guaranteed in the physical world is life, death & rebirth/regeneration.
I've got this vague sense of a life-after, as we both die at the same time...
On the path I've had so many deaths.. Now I feel like I can ride the waves a bit more easily. Bobbing on whatever tide is present that day, allowing myself to surrender to wherever the current is taking me.
Here is a picture of my doggo in the sea at my local beach on a sundrenched day last week.
Love to you all

Axe throwing is SURPRISINGLY therapeutic for that recently discovered repressed anger.
10/10, would recommend.
Any of y’all hiked this one? FASTEST shortcut to the present moment; gripped that chain so freaking tight, my arms are sore today. Biggest mistake: LOOKING DOWN
Locals video quality is wonky, some cool pics in comments 👇
While immersed in Flushing NY's seriously Chinese vibes, my kids bought a shit-ton of weird-ass snacks and then tried to recreate some random Chinese TikTok video they are obsessed with: https://www.tiktok.com/@gildrtsy/video/7405511542667545861?_r=1&_t=ZP-8y7QlZyNCxz
The result? This 😆
Mel Robbins has been promoting her book The Let Them Theory. Caught this part of an interview, with the Daily Stoic. the context of it was abt us being okay, making room, without controlling friends, family, colleagues, people from making their decisions, choices, mistakes without us giving our opinions, input, emotions abt it. So I pretty much summed it up in one short sentence: ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
