Dear Mother Earth,
Thank you for giving us all that is life. By us I do not mean only humans but the birth of all living creatures be it the ones who live on land, in the water, or the sky. To the smallest of microorganisms to the largest animal or mighty tree, all having a significant purpose & create balance. All of us your children.
I’m sorry your children of humans have become forgetful of this connection, have forgotten the need to harmonize with all our brothers & sisters in the creation of forms different than ourselves, have forgotten you yourself with your unconditional, unwavering love & support. By forgetting you, we have forgotten all, even ourselves.
I myself admittedly will forget too or I will think “but I’m just one person, can I really make a difference?” The truth is that is the domino effect for so many of us. But if we are all do our part, no matter how big or small, within that collective work we can make a difference together.
None of us are small. No actions are truly small for they all make an impact on the lives of us all - again I include all forms of life, all of your children.
My beautiful Mother Earth you are not just the environment or land we can use at our own species pleasure. Nor are you only outside our bodies. As my parents, grandparents, & all generations of my ancestry from what is the beginning is inside me. You are inside me. Inside us all. You created my very being & live in my consciousness. With each breathe we are connected.
You are a selfless, protecting, a non discriminatory mother of all your children.
You give us life. You are our creator, our mother, our home. Why do we forget? Why do I forget? How can we forget, how can I forget, when your presence is all around us. With each drink of water or bite of food, that is you. With each breath I am alive & that is you. You are me.
I will do better for you & for my brothers & sisters. I will do my best to stay awake for you & to not shut my eyes, to lose the presence that my actions can make a difference.
I do believe in my heart that if we cultivated this awareness of love & compassion to live by your example, we can save you.

Dear body of mine,
I promise to hold you
I promise to cherish you
I promise not to take you for granted
I promise to love you
I’m sorry I get angry at you
I know it’s not your fault
The chronic pain
Autoimmune diseases
Immune compromised
I know it’s not your fault
Every day you fight for me
As I fight for you
I know you love the incredible
Healthy
Empowering days as much as I do
I know you wish you were “normal”
That you functioned “correctly”
Our normal isn’t easy
It’s hard af
There are days we both want to give up
But then we remember what we are fighting for
We rest
We listen
And do our best to be patient
I’m sorry for getting angry at you
Blaming you
Though maybe you’re also angry at me...
For not having the answers
For not fighting for you from the very beginning
For things I do unintentionally, unknowingly that hurt you
I promise to keep searching for answers
I promise to continue to fight for you
I promise I will never give up on you
We fought the odds against us staying disabled
We fought the odds for us to live independently
We fought the odds that my diseases & chronic pain would control every aspect of my life.
We have fought so many odds
And we will continue to do so
Who ever would have thought we would go from being bed ridden, disabled & just trying to survive another day to days where we thrive. Days where we aren’t just alive but are living and loving life.
The love of being alive
We have come so far my beautiful and strong body. There may always be battles we have to fight. We may never be “normal”. But I’m with you on this journey. Loving and supporting you with all my heart.
With our journey we will help others make it through too. To live lives they love. We will be an advocate for all our fellow warriors. Until the day we find answers.
One day, one moment, one breath at a time.
