The ocean teaches release as naturally as it teaches return.
We carry unfinished ideas, old expectations, abandoned ambitions, and the quiet pressure to make every creative act ‘worthy.’
But not everything needs to come with us.
Sometimes the work is simply to finish something, let it stand, and trust that making room is also part of creating.
Singing Haiku:
old shells leave my hands
the tide carries them away
my palms hold morning
I release what is finished and make room for what is becoming.
