The Soul that Arrived Here

“We shall not cease from exploration.

And the end of all our exploring

Will be to arrive where we started

And know the place for the first time.”

~~ T.S. Eliot

Greetings to all my precious people!!

This is Thanksgiving week in the United States – a time traditionally set aside for gratitude, for gathering, for acknowledging what sustains us.

It’s also the final Friday of November.

The completion of our HOMECOMING arc.

We have cleared physical space, honoring the body as sacred vessel.
We have released ancestral patterns, choosing what to carry forward.
We have quieted the mental noise, creating space for deeper knowing.

Now we arrive at the deepest homecoming of all: returning to the soul that arrived here.

Not the self you’ve become through adaptation and survival.
Not the person you were taught to be.
But the essential YOU that existed before all the conditioning.

T.S. Eliot understood this: we explore, we journey, we search – and eventually, if we’re fortunate, we arrive back where we started and know the place for the first time.

We come home to who we’ve always been.

“I have arrived, I am home.”

~~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Greetings to all my precious people!!

We have cleared physical space. We have released ancestral patterns.

Now we arrive at the most persistent layer of homecoming: the mental clutter.

The planning. The strategizing. The constant need to figure it out, know what’s next, have all the answers. The 3am thought loops. The voice that says you’re not doing enough, being enough, achieving enough.

The noise.

We live in a culture designed to keep you mentally occupied. Distracted. Scrolling. Consuming information. Comparing. Planning. Optimizing.

But your soul is trying to speak. And it can’t be heard over the noise.

This week, as we approach Thanksgiving in the US – a time traditionally about gratitude and gathering – I want to invite you into something countercultural:

The practice of sacred not-knowing. Of creating mental space. Of coming home to the quiet.
