This is exciting stuff. For me at least – you all are about to get spammed – but just this once. 🙄😁😂 Remember how I wrote that post a week or so back about Kicking your own donkey (if not – a quick recap – it was about shifting paradigms and why it was important to […]
Our minds When allowed to roam free Can be terrible beasts When they turn back on us Caught in a loop of negative thoughts It can feel overwhelming And in such moments we can actually feel our vibration, our energy fading Being sucked into a spiral descending Down Down Crash How to escape? Well this […]
I will follow you I didn’t want to at the start When you kept shining that spot light on me Blinking Blinding I didn’t like what you said What you were finding As you walked around Tut Tut Tutting Then muttering All That Muttering Nearly drove me mad But now I see it was me […]
