Doubling Down on Fear

Posted on April 11, 2024 by kyra333

I recently joined a writing group and had a turn to bring a project for feedback. It can be scary and vulnerable for anyone to solicit feedback from peers, at least it was for me. These peers are much more … Continue reading →

Appreciating small moments we string together can make for a wonderful life. We have the ability to stop waiting for retirement, vacation, the weekend for things to get good. Continue reading →

Where am I going?

Posted on October 12, 2023 by kyra333

Pay attention to the places that make you feel calm, places that let your mind wander over big and little questions. Places that set you right in your skin and lighten your step. Make sure you put yourself in those spaces regularly like you brush your teeth, get dressed in the morning. Prioritize building these things into your schedule as you would any obligation to others, but this obligation is to yo Continue reading →

Good Shit

Posted on September 14, 2023 by kyra333

What I didn’t understand until much later in life is all the shit is ultimately good shit. Bad things happen yes, but our growth from those things can be excellent fertilizer for change, for redemption, for later happiness. Tragedies are the seeds of resilience. Not all bad things garner these results, but many can. Continue reading →

Badass Barbie

Posted on August 9, 2023 by kyra333

Holding on to ourselves no matter what the winds of fate do, the world does, our bodies do is the kind of resolve and strength I find rare and wonderful. It is something worth striving for, that holding center, holding kindness, keeping our sense of self and humor intact. Continue reading →

The Right Tool

Posted on July 12, 2023 by kyra333

We are raised to think our way through life, to reason, to plan, chart and analyze. I am not saying these are not good tools. They are only good if you use the appropriate data. We don’t always, we discount our feelings, our bodily reactions even when it is visceral, and our intuition. All of these tools are some of our oldest and have always been at our disposal in creating better lives.  Continue reading →

Priorities and Flawed Magical Thinking

Posted on April 13, 2023 by kyra333

I know that at the end of our lives, we most regret what we didn’t do, not what we did do. That we didn’t take the risks we wanted, loved the way we wanted to love. We need to be worried less about disappointing others and more worried about disappointing ourselves.  Continue reading →

Namib Desert and Stressing Out

Posted on March 14, 2023 by kyra333

Waiting was not an easy feat. Staying calm in the storm of uncertainty, slipping in and out of trying to find a solution to a not yet known end result was crazy making. The added bonus to this roller coaster was struggling not to spiral down and catastrophizing menu of what could go wrong. Continue reading →

Good Beginnings

Posted on February 15, 2023 by kyra333

What is a good beginning? It’s private, it’s slow, it’s a dawning of an idea, a change of mind, a different choice. It starts as an itch so slight as to think we have imagined this idea, impulse or shadow thought. Then it takes root, germinates, and slowly if not fussed with comes into a slight outwardly shift.

Heroes and Homework

Posted on January 18, 2023 by kyra333

Nobody’s coming to save us, fix this or that, none of that is going to happen, it is wholly up to us. We are the heroes of our own lives. We are the ones making mistakes, maybe falling from grace… we are also the ones to rise from the ashes. Continue reading →
