Trust In A World Aflame

Unity in Loss and Transformation

As I sit in my backyard, with ashes from the January 2025 Los Angeles fires falling around me, I find myself wondering: How can I feel love in this moment?

Living just two miles from the fire, I sense that what is unfolding goes beyond anything we can fully comprehend. Each of us experiences the world through a unique lens—our ability to think, feel, and perceive is a profound gift. No one is entirely right or wrong. The experience simply is, and in that, there is something sacred.

Los Angeles is leaving behind an old way of being, joining other cities around the world undergoing similar transformations. With the loss and sadness, there is a profound sense of unity—a transcendent energy created by the collective prayers and love directed toward us. This intentional energy has lifted me into a heightened state of trust and awareness.

We all encounter loss and sadness throughout our journeys. Sometimes, the most powerful thing we can do is simply allow ourselves to be where we are. Choosing that stillness creates space for our higher, all-knowing self to quietly remind us of our power—the power to shape our perceptions, honor the perspectives of others, and trust the unknown without seeking external validation.

Standing in my power as I witness my city burn is not how I imagined this moment. Feeling the world’s collective love and prayers—and offering my love and prayers back to the world—is also far from what I envisioned.

Amid the chaos, confusion, loss, and grief, I choose to see Los Angeles rising from the ashes—rebuilt, better, and stronger. I choose to trust the quantum field, where all possibilities exist, and to draw from it the inspiration, solutions, and next steps that will care for everyone, even as the fires rage.
