Reflection.
Refraction.
Redirection.

Reflection: 
Dear Sunny San Diego,
Thank you.
Thank you for bathing me in souls, sunshine, spirituality, warmth, waves, mountains, magic, truth, and trauma.
Thank you.
Thank you for connecting me with brothers and sisters; spirits and energy; mountains and waters; trials and adventures.

Thank you.
Thank you for challenging my softness,
for putting my loving-light in danger's way,
for allowing me to re-prove my lifelong's grit and grace.

Because of you,
I know.
I know I am strong.
I know I am resilient.
I know I am light.
I know I am love.

Sunny San Diego,
You brought me SO much light
SO much love
SO much laughter.

You also brought me a heck of a storm...
which fostered me to Garden
to Garden
My mind, my body, and my soul.
I Planted,
I Watered,
I Weeded,
I Bathed ,
I Basked,
I Cried,
I Ventured,
In the depths of darkness and shadow,
in the summits of sunshine and luminosity,
in search of my truth,
my essence,
my divinity...
and I found her
I re-found my light.
I re-found my love.
and I am I re-finding my trust.

Because of you,
I know.
I know that no matter what happens
I am always home.
I am always fully equipped.
I will always Grow
and
Just like the sun, I will always Rise.

I love you, San Diego, California.

Until we meet again, Stay Golden ☀️💫✨

With Love and Gratitude,
Dani California

Driving into Heaven

Premonition from 1 year ago : Driving into Heaven It was my first winter morning in three years A different type of mourning was bringing tears As I drove through the snow, All the logic I did know dissipated... I saw you, above- In the clouds, shining love As I journeyed deeper in my car became an oblivion You stood in the clouds and cleared the haze As the sun, your warmth, met my heart's gaze My eyes shined My heart beamed Your loving light Was all I need Eye to Eye Heart to Heart Re-connected to the start of humanity of you- of me- beyond what we can see In sacred moments I drive to the sky Beautiful- Magical- Peaceful- Surreal- For I can fully feel- you As I turn around to wander home, I look behind only to find as the sun's beams and the day's gleams come to an end- you are there- somewhere. In the magic moments between day and night the time is right for our daily date at heaven's gate I feel you in betwee...

"The wound is the place where the Light enters you." - Rumi I am still discovering my spiritual truth. However, I know this photo was the product of deep work after pain. Everything is impermanent. We are nature- we ebb and flow-this I know. Thus, if you are in darkness, know the light is real and you too can feel the wings of freedom and the heart of love. Photo by Alex Pardus

Strength in Softness  "It takes courage to heal... especially so far from home." - Bijan (my dear friend) Tomorrow. Tomorrow, I embark on my one-way journey to India. Tomorrow, I begin my second phase of healing: spiritual emotional healing. Physically, I am the healthiest I have been since I was fourteen (link below). Spiritually and emotionally, I become healthier each day, for this journey never ends.   I am grateful that my emotional baseline is happy.  I am also aware of my massive concrete walls, the walls that I had built to encapsulate my emotional center,  the walls that I had built to prevent any fear-based emotion from seeping out of my heart and into my being,  the walls that blocked the truth- truth of the unknown truth that my body may die this truth that I failed to see my walls masked from me had I met the truth it would have robbed the little bit of hope, the little bit of li...
