Death Portal as a Teacher

As I’m in a death portal, shedding, grieving, I’m reminded of what it means to surrender to the death. Surrender to the heart, the mystic of what it means to fully embrace each tear, the rage, the mind. Not trying to fix, not trying to get onto the next high but fully surrender to the grief. Our society is so much about getting to the next chapter, go go go. And not fully allowing us to grieve the old, surrender to the season of wintering and living fully.

For when we grieve deeply, we can experience profound joy. Like real joy. Not the fake one that you’re trying to manifest. But deep joy of life.

For the joy and the grief is deeply connected.

How can we deeply tune into the cycles of life without forcing?

I’m offering fine art portrait sessions in the triangle (Durham, Raleigh, North Carolina) this month. Dying for the beach next month so if you’re interested, shoot me a dm.

All my love,

Káti
