"Breaking The Spell"

Lisa Danhi's avatar

Thank you for sharing about your sharing, Cory. I imagine this is quite universal in and out of our creativity, performing our roles like job and caretaker, and just opening our eyes in the morning and trying and figure out who the fuck we are. And yes, it can be terribly exhausting. But that’s what it is, remembering to come back to the breath and let go of the idea that we have to think ourselves into being and work ourselves into being better. I’m so glad you’re writing music again and look forward to listening.

I feel this so deeply, friend. I’ve been hiding too after a terrible experience with the publishing industry that sounds similar to your experience with the music industry. After that disappointment, it felt hard to call myself a writer or poet. But the creating never ceased. I’m finding my way back to sharing. But social media also feels like a tightrope I’m not sure I want to engage with anymore. It seems to ask for a weird veil of performance I don’t like and I’m still figuring out how to show up without having to contort to its tight fit. Love sitting with your words. ❤️ XO

Oh my gosh, Christina you are such an incredible artist and I would be completely saddened if I could not see your work anymore. Your photos and words and creative expression have always hit right to my heart. And the fact that you’re saying what you have right here gives what I’ve written this morning more validity. I love that we’re still connected. Thank you so much for reading. It means so much to me. Please never stop creating. You are unique and real and your expression is needed.
