Reclaiming the Wonder: Slowing Down the Rush to Grow Up

There’s an unspoken race to grow up that starts earlier than it should. Young girls often feel the pull to act older, to rush into being teenagers, then adults, and finally hitting that magic milestone of 21. Today, social media influencers amplify this rush, introducing the pressure for girls as young as seven to wear makeup, have artificial nails, and even use anti aging products. This isn’t empowerment. It’s a cleverly disguised marketing strategy.

Judgment as a Mirror: Lessons from the Vulture

Take the vulture, for example. Many of us instinctively recoil at the sight of a vulture. They’re often seen as symbols of death, darkness, and decay. I’ve felt this myself, an unease, a quiet fear, a judgment that these creatures were somehow “ugly” or something to avoid. But when I paused to reflect, I saw something profound. The vulture doesn’t represent death; it represents renewal. It consumes decay, aiding in the cycle of life by preventing disease and returning nutrients to the earth.

Discovering the Space Between Awareness and the Unknown

There’s a fascinating place where the lines blur. A space between the known and the unknown, the conscious and the subconscious, the physical and the spiritual. It’s not a place we can map or define in rigid terms, yet it’s one of the most profound areas of human experience. This liminal space is where transformation begins, where insights emerge, and where we connect with a reality beyond what we can see or touch.

Untamed Potential: the Wild Within

As women, our lives often feel defined by boundaries we didn’t draw. From the moment we step into the world, external forces attempt to tame us. Society debates our rights as if our autonomy is up for negotiation. Our emotions, especially during the sacred rhythm of our menstrual cycles, are dismissed as irrational, used as an excuse to diminish our voices. We are told to shrink when we should rise, to conform when we should explore. But within every woman lies an untamed potential, a fierce, wild, limitless power waiting to be reclaimed.

Stop Filtering Me Without My Permission

Let’s talk about a modern day violation that doesn’t get enough attention: getting filtered without your consent. You know the situation. Your friend or family member snaps a photo of you, uploads it to social media, and slaps on a filter that smooths out every wrinkle, changes your skin tone, and erases every ounce of your natural glow. And then it’s out there, for the world to see, as if that filtered version of you is the real you.

Let’s get something straight: I didn’t ask to be a porcelain doll.

Flowing Through the Waves of Life: Transforming Pain into Growth

Pain, though difficult, is an essential part of the human experience. By choosing to flow with life’s waves rather than resisting them, we create space for healing and transformation.
