In this fourth episode of the Chicken Doodle Soup, I discuss realizing the same things over and over again, a little deeper each time, tending to our inner sparks, and how I want to approach my goals for the year ahead.

About me: My art expresses the intricacies of being alive: the magic and beauty of existence, the wisdom and mysticism to be found in nature, and my own story as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I create paintings, drawings, and mixed media works that embody healing, vulnerability, duality, emotion, and humanity. I also write and make music from my soul. I release my music under a name I gave myself, Alice Celeste.

In this second episode of the Chicken Doodle Soup podcast, I discuss the depths of grief and expressing that wordless pain.

Grief feels like sitting cross-legged on the ocean floor, still alive, still breathing. And I sit here at the bottom of the ocean waiting for nothing. Just existing. Just feeling. Just watching the glimpse of sunlight as it dances on the surface, miles and miles away. I’ll swim up again. Just not now. Now, I rest. Now, I take in the depths.

Grief pulls me deep down under and I let it. Because I get it now. I won’t be crushed under the weight of its reality. I let myself be carried down, down, down. And I stay here as long as I need.

Bottom of the sea.

Sometimes, regular speech doesn't do the feeling justice. Sometimes, we must speak and listen through poetry, through art. To truly say it. To truly hear it. To reach the depths. To say it like you really mean it. To take in the gravity, the depth.
