Enigmatic

Desire

 Desire, want, and longing work enigmatically- we want what we don’t have, and when we finally get it we find that it only makes us want more. Happiness is not something that can permanently exist within us- like a drop of rain on our skin or the wind in our hair, it's an experience that lives within a moment in time.

The work I do as a teacher, the new connections I seek and provide, and the relationships I continue to grow and nurture, give me the capacity for happiness. Instead of trying to capture and cage happiness and light, I aim to provide a space to flow into as it soaks me in its warmth before moving on and escaping into the people around me. It's a relationship that is represented by this vessel- one that allows energy to flow into and through it then to swirl within until it's time to find its way out and onto the next destination.
