Dear Hacker,

I was hacked, and it is not okay,
Call me crazy if you will,
You're out there somewhere,
You know who you are,
Hiding behind your cowardice,
And behind your need for control,
Behind your shame and embarrassment to approach me,
Behind your need to cover up your true self,
Behind your lack of integrity,
Behind your arrogance,
Behind the pretense of whatever excuse you give yourself for doing this,
Behind all of this, I see a scared soul.
Maybe you could have come to me in shining armor instead,
One of humility, love, vulnerability, and some dignity.
Yes, that would have been nice.
Even inspiring perhaps!
But that would have taken courage.
And I'm not sure you can know true courage from where you are hiding.
Thank you for yet another lesson,
For teaching me I don't like being hacked,
Even if I am clean and transparent;
For teaching me I don't like being invaded by force or secrecy,
Even when I choose to be utterly vulnerable and open to the core.
Thank you for teaching me that I need to draw cleaner boundaries,
And keep my things well locked and protected from assholes like you.
You're right, I need new keys and stronger safe guards in place.





Equilibrium might be overrated - let's maximize welfare instead

I won't lie; I do enjoy that my out-of-equilibrium moves can throw you off. I am working to keep the inner stuff in balance - can't worry about it all making sense on the outside to you right away. #selfrelianceralphwaldoemerson #stickaroundandmaybeyoullgetit #ordont #flyawayandenjoyyourselfifyouwillwould

I am not seeking to predict your moves either - surprise me if you would - and I hope I would allow for your authenticity to flourish with deep respect and love.

~Warrior Princess~ with all her might and humility

I’m a warrior,
Warrior by heart,
Warrior with love,
Warrior today and forevermore

I’m a warrior,
I summon my forces,
I gather my allies,
And I seek within

I’m a warrior by birth,
Warrior by choice,
Warrior in ecstasy,
A warrior for peace
A warrior for joy

I battle with battling
I battle with my closing heart
I battle with what I do not wish to be
I battle my self-imposed boundaries
I battle my fears
I battle my dark
I battle my resistance to expand
I will against unwillingness

I feel the pain
I feel the discomfort
And I battle that
Because I am a warrior 
And a warrior princess at that

Nothing more, nothing less
Warrior princess,
Surrounded by warriors,
Some wounded some hurt, 
Warriors nonetheless

And together, we make more
A kingdom and queendom of warriors 
Warriors of love
Warriors with wide open hearts

I surrender some battles for the sake of this war,
I’m here, here to stay, here to love as best as I know how.
