The elephant(s) in the room

 Hello family,


I greet you in the name of 220222. I hope that this post finds you palindromically and ambigramically well on a day as auspicious as this one. How's Fabreworry treating you?




Let's face the elephant in my room: we've reached that time of the year when new year's resolutions or themes are showing us flames. That's if we even remember them. We either still do or are questioning what we were thinking in the first place. Right?

One of my themes, the pursuit of peace, is not just an elephant in the room. It's an entire herd! Being an empath doesn't make things any easier too.

I'm finding myself dodge elephants in almost every room. Pursuing peace seemed so rosey...until the reality of it all hit me hard. Our reasons for seeking peace are rooted in our need for healing. Now that's a messy space. Messy but absolutely necessary. Talk about an elephant refusing to be ignored.

Fabreworry 2022 has also managed to squeeze  in the elephant of self love into the room. Oh, how often do we forget that this is a verb. The other unwanted elephant is just how this adulting gig is a one way ticket. Yeep. Nothing has changed in that front. Yerr!

I hope that this month of love has been kind to you. I hope you've received flowers or planted them yourself or even given them to others. I hope you've loved unapologetically. I also hope that at some point this month...you get to reconnect with those parts of yourself which you are absolutely inlove with. May the flame of self love never burn out...

Lastly, I hope the herd of elephants in your room are filled with memories of times which remind you of your true self.

Have a blessed Lenten season family. I'll see you on the other side...
