Let Them

Published March 9, 2025 by tindertender

People you ache for will reject you
Let them

People are going to show you
with their actions
the painful reality of who they are
Let them

People are going to violate
your boundaries
and then blame you
Let them

People are going to believe
their own version of who you are
despite truth or facts
Let them

People are going to misunderstand
misalign and malign you
Let them

I know it’s agony
to allow false stories
to take center stage
rather than truth
but let them

This way lies power
and healing and self-reclamation

The energy you were spending to gain
approval, inclusion, validation
is a false-belonging wound
that’s bleeding you dry

Warning:
To “Let Them”
requires many
stops
and
starts

Stop
the hemorrhage
of explaining

Stop
the frazzle
of justifying

Stop swallowing
the slow-killing poison
of defending

Stop striving, earning, performing

Stop telling yourself
you need their back-breaking
version of love
or understanding

Stop allowing their judgement
to injure your self-love

Take a breath

Dare
to fill your lungs
with something other than
anxiety

Exhale
diminishment

Inhale
expansion

Now start

Start
seeking inside you
the thing that you
always wanted from them

Start
owning all your truth
the beauties
and the beastly
daring to embrace it all

Start
delighting in the wonder of you
as vast as a moon-sky blanket
and dazzling
as a starlit circus

Start
healing the fracture
of your tender fierce heart
gluing and gilding
the jagged edges
with the 24 karat courage

Forgive yourself
for mistaking them
for your power source

The day you start
giving yourself
the love
you wanted from them
is the first day of your freedom

A sky walker once said,
“We’re all living in cages
with the doors wide open.”

You, little songbird, deserve to be free

Take wing from the prison
of your thoughts

You’ll soar

They’ll criticize

Let them

Unleash Your Voice

Published March 3, 2025 by tindertender

This art is about the freedom to unleash your true voice.

Culturally and by many things that have happened in our own lives, we can be hurt, afraid, and lock away our voice.

Truth is like an unquenchable flame, and the voice of truth burns you and the egos of those who hear it. It takes great courage to speak the truth to ourselves and to those around us.

We defend ourselves in order to live. We work very hard to build a defensive wall in our own hearts to do so. But the voice of truth breaks it down. That is why we are afraid.

But we are not alone, we are connected, and we help each other, even if not visibly.

We invite you into the great circle so that your voice of truth can be born again in distinction. We are free in every moment. This is an undeniable truth.

You have power.

Your heart can break all chains and fly in this moment.

The earth loves you and the universe is all for you.

Unleash the voice of your truth. It can be a word, a shout, a song, anything.

Unleash the birds of truth that have been locked up inside you into the universe.

It is scary at first. But once you open the door of your heart, you will be filled with true joy.

You will love yourself. You will regain your strength and awaken🕊️🌏✨

Enduring, Selfless Love

Published March 3, 2025 by tindertender

In the middle of the city’s hustle and bustle, where people walk past each other without noticing, a man stands out not for what he says, but for what he represents. He has no home, no wealth, and no certainty about what tomorrow will bring, but he possesses something far more valuable than all that: the unconditional love of his dogs. He lives on the streets, facing the unforgiving cold in winter and the scorching heat in summer. Despite the hardships, he never complains. He asks for nothing for himself, only for them. These dogs are his family, his reason to keep going.

Every morning, before the city awakens, he rises and gently strokes the backs of his companions who sleep by his side, trying to share the little warmth he has. He carefully adjusts the makeshift blankets he’s created from scraps of fabric, making sure they are comfortable and protected. While he endures hunger and loneliness, his only concern is ensuring his friends don’t feel the same abandonment. He shares with them every crumb he receives, sacrificing his own food so they won’t go hungry.

Some passersby look at him with curiosity, others with disdain. “If he can’t take care of himself, how can he take care of these dogs?” they wonder. But they don’t see what he does when no one is watching: how he checks their paws to make sure they’re not hurt, how he covers them with his body when it rains, how he speaks gently to them when they’re scared. To him, these dogs are not a burden, but his reason for being. Each wag of their tails is a silent thank you, each loving gaze a promise they’ll never abandon him.

So, night after night, he keeps going, no matter the cold or the obstacles. Because to him, these dogs are not just animals, they are proof that true love cannot be bought, but is given unconditionally, with the soul, expecting nothing in return.

Yes We Can Can

Published March 1, 2025 by tindertender

Now’s the time for all good men
To get together with one another
We got to iron out our problems
And iron out our quarrels
And try to live as brothers

And try to find peace within
Without stepping on one another
And do respect the women of the world
Remember, you all had mothers

We got to make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And we got to help each man be a better man
With the kindness that we give

I know we can make it
I know darn well, we can work it out
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can, why can’t we?
If we wanna, yes, we can, can

I know we can make it work
I know that we can make it if we try
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can great-gosh almighty
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can

And we gotta take care of all the children
The little children of the world
‘Cause they’re our strongest hope for the future
The little bitty boys and girls

We got to make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And we gotta help each man be a better man
With the kindness that we give

I know we can make it
I know, darn well we can work it out
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can, why can’t we?

I know darn well, we can work it out
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can, why can’t we?
If we wanna, yes, we can, can

I know we can make it work
I know we can make it if we try
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can great-gosh almighty
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can

Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can
Yes, we can, can, why can’t we?
If we wanna, yes, we can, can
Oh, yes, we can, I know we can, can

Yes, we can, can, why can’t we?
If we wanna get together, we can work it out

I know we can make it
I know darn well, we can work it out

I know we can make it
I know darn well, we can work it out
I know we can, can

Yes, we can, can, why can’t we?
If we want it, yes, we can, can

I know we can make it
I know darn well, we can work it out

HOLDING YOU

Published February 15, 2025 by tindertender

If they love you, they love every memory of you,
Each wrinkle, a chapter to feel.
If they love you they love you in present and past,
They will kiss all the hurt till it heals.

If they love you, each scar becomes who you are;
A page in your story of life.
For love doesn’t see; it feels deep within;
Love doesn’t cut like a knife.

Love doesn’t see imperfections,
It only feels where love can grow.
Love doesn’t go for the taking;
Love is the give and the show.

Each weight we hold onto in whispers
Can lift like a feather in flight,
If we trust in all our imperfect
And balance each dark with the light.

Be love, no secret disguises;
Embrace every reason you lack;
For love can never find you
If you’re hiding behind your own back.

Love doesn’t see you as flawless;
It sees you imperfectly planned.
Love will love you completely
When you reach out and hold your own hand.

So love you, love every memory of you,
Each wrinkle, each chapter; just feel.
Love all you are in present and past,
For your love is your love to heal.
