It's shitty that, from LA and so many other parts of the US, I can't see what people here call the Milky Way. It exists, but is invisible.

Yet this alone has taught me such an incredible lesson: I *know* the highway is right above me, whether I see it or not.

(*quick note: what people here call the Milky Way is not the Guarani version of heaven; for us, it's a highway but not for after death.)

Sharing some of this from my little backyard. Me and a glass of a wine or two, watching Mars starting to set.

Remembering I've learned we're stardust. And that I've made this fit into everything else I know about roads, paths, highways, and home.

Some of us weren't meant to survive. And too many of us don't. It's incumbent upon us still on this road of life to do right by those gone.

And it's just as important to take a moment to breathe and look at the sky every now and then. It's our birthright. It knows no borders.

Listening to Jay Z's Spiritual on repeat, watching Arcturus... what a bright star. Headed to dreamland soon. Good night.

Jay Z's Spiritual is haunting... Can't imagine what a whole Jay album like this would be like

Jay says he's singing for the little boy he forgot — his growth stunted by transgenerational trauma, death, violence, fame.

"I am not poison. I'm just a boy from the hood." That line broke me. Having to clarify "I am not poison."
