Hi Kimia,

I resonate so much with your words about summer being a murky time; one of deep emotion both overwhelming in a positive and negative way. I've found this summer to be one of such transformation for me but also intense discomfort at times. I can only hope that is true for the world as well. That the extremity of which people are suffering is clearing the way for an equal amount of peace and flourishing. 💕💕Thank you for your missives ♥️

Violet, I couldn't agree more! "summertime sadness" has always been a v real thing for me. I'm working on allowing that to remain as is when it comes up, as opposed to fighting it in the ways I used to—and allowing, too, the transformation that needs to occur. I think that we are all a part of the collective transformation, the collective uprising, that is currently occurring and that will ultimately "clear the way", like you said. and I will continue to cling to that. Thank you for reading 🙏🏼
