Journal Entry 001: Transmutation in times of Millenials

It's been a long time since I sat down and wrote a heartfelt blog post, the last time may have been in high school. So I think I might continue setting some time aside to write journal entries. For my own pleasure and desire. Two words I plan to embody for the rest of 2024. In many ways its undoubtedly indulging. In ways that daily global events are constantly in our faces now, our days are spent carrying a heavy bags full of guilt and living in a priviledged part of the world. It can at times be extremely soul crushing, so creating change in your own backyard is one small way to start. If you don't have the resources to help in a big way, you have to remember every action in our lives creates a new portal to a different timeline on this butterfly effect. Even the kindest gesture to a stranger on the street can be a ripple in the matrix.

So, for a long time, I thought being more private would help protect me from hurt, from judgement, for wanting to claim my life and who I allow into it. Essentially allowing for the creation of really tall walls. It's become suffocating at times, but I realize the need for community and being open to love from all avenues opens up small windows of unity that exist outside of the digital screen on your palm. I've grown to become tired and in many ways grossed out at how I've allowed myself to wear this straight-jacket that society continues marketing on my feed. As I was writing this, I received an intuitive download that helped me understand a big part of our purpose here today. Millenials were the first generation to grow up with social media, smart phones, and instant communication. We basically signed up to be born during a time to learn and essentially be the teachers of the future gengerations to help them find the balance of how to live with technology and connecting back to the self.

Which ties back to what I'm currently working on, not only in my creative pursuits, but also in my schooling. I'm currently in the middle of working on a piece that began as a book, and has slowly morphed into what I'm reluctantly calling a multimedia piece. I graduated from San Diego State University's School of Art + Design, and since then I realized I've been busting through deep creative flow states ever since I was a child.


Currently Listening to:
• Currently I'm listening to Chappell Roan, not really sure why, I don't necessarily like her music, but I can't stop listening to her music, might just be some hypnosis-type shit going on with the production of that track.
• I giggle and immediately pick a new song by Jhené Aiko.
• Transitioned into listening to Solange's A Seat At the Table album. Anything by Solange is *chef's kiss* Lots of love for my zodiac twin, she can do no wrong lol.
