We have forgotten the truth that we are interconnected—all beings across all lands. That our lives are lived separately, but are deeply woven together in ways we have misunderstood. 

Following your heart, despite detours, will always lead you to where you most belong. 

I suppose that is the truth behind being shameless in our lives. It’s about standing, jumping, running towards the truth that is you, and never giving a second thought to those that are mocking you along the way. 

Love can be deep, beautiful, messy and, dare I say, not enough. There are times, I have learned, where letting go is the most loving thing you will ever do for another. 

When I am asked if I will ever have children of my own, my response has gone from a timid “don’t judge me” reply, to simply saying no. Sometimes just one word is the biggest truth we can ever tell.
