Welcome to The Daily Feed

A quiet corner of the internet. No noise, just small moments and RIPPLE Practice™ reflections, written with care. This is my version of social media—slowed down and stripped back.

Here, I share small moments: handwritten tokens, fragments of poetry, stories from everyday life. Some tender. Some raw. All real. You’ll find microblogs updated regularly, sometimes multiple times in one day. I write to connect, to make meaning, and to notice what often goes unseen.

Thanks for being here.

Release: a poem

A visit with an osteopath that reopened old wounds, felt scary but safe, and helped me release a lot—of sadness, rage, anguish and blame.

Pleasure in Aloneness

Now, I keep company with the past. Write in silence. Cry loudly in the bath. Dance in my underwear to no music.

The Desire-Pleasure Paradox

Written in response to Jeannine Ouellette’s Writing Toward Pleasure prompt on the paradox of desire. This poem is an ode to the sensory memories I carry in my body.
