"In These Times Of Change, Let Us Rise Together" A Poem

January 2025—so much is unfolding in the U.S. Lately, my feed has been filled with the LA fires and the inauguration, along with waves of fear, anger, and division. This inspired me to write a piece about mindfulness—about the energy we cultivate within ourselves and how it ripples into the world around us. Let this be an inspiration for how we can adjust our heading.

In these times of transformation,

Let us remember that we are one,

Bound by breath,

Hope,

And a collective dream.

Here's a poem that I wrote to embody this transformation.

Rising through the chaos.

Through the chaos we may see with our physical eye,

It is up to us to make our energy rise.

We'll make choices and actions that benefit our whole,

By coming to knowing that we all play a role.

The individualized expressions of life that we are,

Play a part in uplifting,

Whether near or far.

The consciousness we embody will spread out unto others,

Lighting the way for our sisters and brothers.

In using our wisdom as we lead the way,

Practicing presence each and every day,

Our wisdom runs deep.

It's intuitive knowing,

Aware of the vibrational light we are showing.

And when faced with disturbance that this physical life can be,

Let's take steps that encourage the collective,

Set free.

If we react with fear,

Anger,

Or hate,

Only more of these things will be put on our plate.

Thank you so much for listening.

Let us take those steps to unite us as one through the chaos.

Namaste.
