Funny thing
It’s a funny thing
Being your motherI had 9 months to prepare
Yet I don’t feel quite ready
I still feel like you came out of nowhere
An apparition full of blissAfter hosting both our souls
I got smaller all of a sudden
From belly to boobies
You were in my arms to carryI take care of you all day and all night
I love you to the moon and back
Yet it’s a funny thing being your mother
I can’t quite figure out what it is for meIt’s as if I got delivered the most precious little package
Without the instruction manual or the Ikea key
You’re a puzzle to me
Or maybe more of a mysteryYour soul is so unique
You are wise beyond
I guess I feel a little intimidated
Being the mother of such an old light beingNo need to worry we got plenty of time
To solve this daughter equation
But who knows if there will ever be a definite answer
To what it means to be your mother -
Let it rip
Let it rip
Go all in
What are you afraid ofYou’re spending so much time doing your own PR
All that energy wasted
What will you do with that one precious lifeThe choice is yours
Live it for others or make it your own
Keep pretending or speak the truth
Hide behind conventions or show your true coloursYou think it doesn’t matter
You’re wrong
Every decision, every action
Has a reaction, a repercussionThe more you be, the more we all
You got very little time of your end
The clock is ticking
Liberation now, is yours to takeIf only you go for it
What are you afraid of -
La sieste
Tu fais la sieste mon bébé
Ça fait déjà quelques heures
Je te porte contre mon cœur
Ta petite tête lourde sur ma poitrineC’est long
Fatiguée, je n’arrive pas à trouver le sommeil
Une partie de moi veut rester
ÉveilléeDans une espèce de transe
Je regarde le vide
Mon cerveau à off
Mon cœur qui prend toute la placeQuelque part entre midi et quatorze heures
J’ai trouvé une paix intérieure
Tu m’apaises, mon cœur
Dans ces moments de rien
Nos âmes s’accordent
C’est peut-être juste ça, le bonheur -
Sunday afternoon
My little bundle of love
A warm precious package
That I’d never return or exchangeWatching you sleep
My heart pours over you
Rainbows and sunshine rays
Like the Care Bear MamaYet I feel lonely today
My cup’s a bit empty, I cannot lie
Giving you my everything
And no one’s pouring in -
Old houses
Old houses
A bit crooked
Can always be flippedYou buy one cheap
Put in the work
Get a good profitYou’ve done a great job
Of making it seamless
All things now aligned, all things faultless
It’s ready for the photoshoot, picture perfectPost it on Instagram
Get all the likes
You can be proud
It does look gorgeousBut I like my old house just a bit crooked
A bit messy, not always immaculate
I want it to be vibrant, decorated with taste
But I also don’t mind the stainsWhat can I say, I’m not beige
My aura is pink, yellow, turquoise
My baby’s even more of the rainbow
We need it to showBring in the flowers, turn on the music
Come in, come in
This is a party place, a joyful house
Everyone’s welcome under the big tentOld houses, when done right
Feel like home in the middle of the night
Don’t worry, here you won’t be judged
We’ve deleted IG, towards fake success we don’t like to be nudgedWe’re getting out of the matrix
Our old house and some good old painting will do the trick
We don’t care, we’re setting ourselves free
Our souls here are happy -
Miss Froufrous
You’re dressed quite funny
You got a style of your own
Little pink dresses aren’t your thing
You’re already too punk rock to play that gameVintage 90s clothes
Flashy neon leggings and ruffles
You can wear anything and make it cool
A fashionista, a trendsetterYou got the attitude to match the outfit
An “I don’t give a damn” that makes you so attractive
You’re the kind of girl that leads the way
The kind of girl we wish we’d all be friends withKeep showing all your colors
Let your personality shine through
The world needs more people like you
My favorite, Miss Froufrous -
Baby talk
The nurses, they carry you
Talking to you like a little lady
Moving you around like a babyThey haven’t locked eyes with you
Otherwise they’d know
This isn’t your first rodeoOh wise soul, blessed old soul
You’ve come to teach us all
About the wonders we’ve missed all alongCome on, you say
Follow my lead I’ll show you the way
How to be really happy
How to live in joy and harmonyThis isn’t my first rodeo
It’s gonna be my best one
Actually this might be the last
Wanna join me for this wild ride? -
40 days
Being a mother, in one way, in any way, feels like my highest destiny. I feel blessed beyond to have been chosen by the wise soul of my daughter. Here’s to our 40 first days together.
Oh my sweet little angel
I just can’t get enough of you
I want to soak in every moment
My days filled with blissTime flies by
How come you’re already a big girl now
A soul of your own
40 days have gone byI’ll cherish those forever
Your energy field merged into mine
I chanted for you my love, oh I chanted
To fill your aura with strength, happiness and graceYou’re set on your path now
You chose a planet of free will
But whenever you go, whatever you need
I’ll always be by your side -
New Year intentions
I was talking to a friend, who asked for some writing prompts or visioning exercises for the New Year.
I’ve been doing those for years, in multiple iterations. Some more complex, others quite simple. Yet, no matter the format, I feel this is a very interesting way to look back at your life, and project yourself into the future.
Lesson #1 – Headspace is everything
I easily get excited about all the potentials when doing vision boards or when answering writing prompts. That’s great. You need that wild imagination and safe space to allow yourself to dream bigger.
However,what I’ve realized over the years is that it’s not any big dream or BHAG you’re trying to get to, it’s yours. It’s not so much an exercise of projecting yourself into an imaginary future that fits within the culture, it’s about revealing what your highest destiny is. Revealing is the key word here. Your soul already knows, the work here is to uncover your deepest desires.
Hence a relaxed state is almost mandatory. You’re getting into a portal, a time machine that will take you to your most beautiful fulfilling future. You don’t have to force things, pictures and images will come to you. Those are what your soul is calling for, this is what I feel is the most potent energy to translate into your vision board or journal.
Lesson #2 – Let go of what isn’t you
Following a similar train of thoughts, it’s interesting to look back at your past journals and vision boards to see what comes back year after year, without ever getting accomplished.
Most of my intentions for the last years have been fulfilled, yet there are always a couple that come back again and again. This year, instead of feeling guilty for not doing enough to get those nailed, I reviewed them with curiosity. I’m opening myself to more possibilities. What if they didn’t get fulfilled because they aren’t meant to be? Is this truly what I desire, or is it something I believe I should have, a destination I should get to?
This won’t apply to all your unfulfilled intentions of 2022. Sometimes, we live in multiple timelines, and it’s not because it didn’t happen on a specific date and time that it’s not meant for you. But if it has almost become an habit to put that intention down, and somehow you never found the energy or excitement to follow through, maybe it’s time to let it go.
Lesson #3 – Have fun
This is your time. This is your life. This is your party.
Nobody gets to decide what goes onto your vision board. You’re the master of time and space. At all times, you get to decide what path to take, what will be your next adventure. The past has nothing to do with your potential future. I know it’s hard sometimes to believe that, but you really do get a fresh start whenever you decide you want one.
So go ahead and do it. Have fun no matter what. This isn’t meant to be another management system for your life, with objectives, status and KPIs. This is a tool to make sure you stay true to your course for a happy life. Make it fun.
Wishing you the best New Year, happy 2023!
Ps. This doesn’t only happen on New Year. I’m inviting you to revisit your intentions every New Moon. Subscribe to the New Moon writing prompts to get them straight into your inbox every month.

New Moon in Capricorn – December 23, 2022
Pray to the Mother, Praise to the Mothers, as all women are the Creators.
Capricorn. The hard worker. The carpenter, the doer. Often mistaken for a masculine sign, Capricorn finds its true equilibrium in its feminine aspect. The ability to master the earthly and emotional realms. The welcoming vessel for more prosperity. The flow of the life energy working through you, instead of being engineered by you. The real power of the feminine.
In Harris Manchester College back in Oxford, priests would deliver their lectures looking at this magnificent stained glass, a representation of many women who embodied the value of Christ consciousness. On this day after the powerful New Moon in Capricorn and on Christmas’ eve, this is my invitation.
Embody Capricorn. Become the vessel. The finite container for infinite love and abundance, true prosperity, a new Power on Earth.
Love and blessings 🤍
