The Secret in the wARTers | Mathieu JN Baptiste

Forgiveness and Grace

Does the moon truly impact the ocean, the push of the tides, or the bulges of high tides that sometimes sweep humans into the afterlife realm; yet we still enjoy and look for the moon every night, respectfully? Forgiveness and Grace examines the shame and disconnect many of us struggle with as it relates to things said or done when emotions are high and fierce like the high tides bulging with force. May the grace we give to the moon be given to ourselves with subtle softness.

Its OK to Cry

We go through so many emotions. Society tell us to not let our emotions break us down, to not let our loved ones see those tear fall but sometimes those tears are needed to release the hurt, pain or gratitude. It’s ok to cry.
