seventh century France.

lies shrouded fortress treasures.

inside her-story.

enchanting decay.

humbled in life’s timelessness.

dreaming transience.

in pulsing stillness.

abrasive edges soften.

ancestors whisper.

fading with the past.

opening to fate’s mystery.

through a truth-seeking pilgrim.

inspiration comes...

• We can only reach as far up as much as we’re willing to dig down.

• We can only be as beautiful as much as we are willing to be authentic.

• We can only feel as safe as much as we are willing to be vulnerable.

• We can only feel alive as much as we’re willing to die.

• We can only create as much as we’re willing to soften.

• We can only learn as much as we’re willing to release pride.

• We can only feel full as much as we’re willing to empty our cup.

• We can only gain as much as we’re willing to let go.

• We can only love as much as we’re willing to confront fear.

• We can only be successful as much as we’re willing to love.
