Echoes: Self — Sept 1

Echoes: Self — September 1

A New Beginning

September 1 feels like a doorway. Today, I choose to step through it with lighter hands and a clearer heart. I release what no longer serves me—the weight of old disappointments, the voices that tell me I’m not enough, the habits that keep me small.

It's a deliberate choice to embark on this journey today, a day when we honor the leaders who have shaped the United States. This series will delve deep into the origins of America, starting with the tragic history of the Indigenous peoples' genocide, exploring the implications of the Doctrine of Discovery , and reflecting on the teachings of Matthew 7:24-27 from the Bible as a metaphor for building on a solid foundation versus one of sand. I will extend the conversation to the systemic oppression of people of color, women, immigration, the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with disabilities, and many other marginalized groups, along with examining the falsehoods perpetuated by our nation's leaders.
