Self - Shelter "Good things come"

When the world shakes, breathe!

Today, so far this year 2025, I can't help but feel like the world is shaking.

Sometimes I feel it in the air, in my body, in the news that passes through me even though I don't want to hear it. It's as if everything outside is screaming louder than what's inside. As if this time is trying to push us into an abyss that hasn't quite taken shape, but feels... close.

And I ask myself, how can I sustain myself in the midst of this?

I don't have all the answers, and sometimes I struggle not to fall into that dense energy that seems to be everywhere. But then I remember—I repeat to myself—that I didn't come to this world to be dragged down by chaos. I came to remember, to create, to be a witness and channel for something different.

It's not about ignoring what's happening. It's about not letting it swallow me up.

It's about not giving my energy over to that which only wants to drain it.

And that, on days like these, becomes a constant choice.

There are times when the only thing that saves me is breathing. Doing something small. Something that brings me back to myself.

Writing. Singing. Lighting a candle. Looking at the sky.

Sometimes it's enough to cleanse my space, as if by doing so I could bring some order to the universe.

And even though a part of me is trembling inside, another part begins to remember that not all is lost. That what's collapsing out there may be making room for something else—something more real, cleaner, more essential.

Today I just want to tell myself that it's okay to feel.

That it's okay not to be able to handle everything.

But the important thing is not to let the energy rot inside me.

If the world seems to be collapsing, then let my center be firmer.

I don't need to shout it out. I don't need to convince anyone.

I just need to remember it... for myself.

With love,
