The Human Collective

I've suffered with chronic illness the majority of my life, my father died right before covid, I suffer from dibilitating injuries from military service, my mother suffers from LMS (a cancer that has no remission) and I had many friends die along the way. I was traumatized by 9/11 and survived Hurricane Sandy.

Covid was unfortunate, but the shut down was a time I was able to truely reflect and realize I've just been a cog in a machine. I coudn't think of what we were working towards as a society, as a collective, all that was apparent to me was how divided we all were. From there I started identifying what beliefs were mine, and what were reinforced beliefs I didn't agree with but were "status quo". From there I've had quite the healing journey. I relearned empathy, I relearned how to love myself, and I relearned how to trust. Once my mind was at peace with my body, science also got up to speed so I was able to get a diagnosis but for the most part I make my own food from scratch to avoid getting sick. 

I share this not for pity, I share this so you understand what I've been through and all I still want is peace and abundance for everyone. This is the heart I always had, and emerged out of the shadows with. Lessons learned so I can understand suffering in multiple ways, and want nothing more than to fix it so no one has to suffer again. It's why I put this site together, as a call to gather. A call to organize, and hopefully ignite a light in the dark.
