How Do You Allow the Sun? With Marisa Goudy

article image placeholderUploaded by @allowthesun
We navigate the contradictory nature of our roles and goals, dreams and fears every day. We are a beautiful, intricate design. We are a terrible tangle. We are alive with the artistry of creation and all its chaos. OOH. Those lines really popped out to me. So powerful and affirming of how I feel most days. I love the artistry of creation and all its chaos. I connect with that now. Marie says work is drawn from the literature and traditions of Ireland and the Celtic nations

So grateful to share my story #irish #mythology #landacknowledgement #storytelling #ancestralwisdom #motherhood

And I think that it's okay for us as writers, as creatives, to claim like, yeah, when I hear people repeat those words back to me, I light up even more because it's hard a lot of the times for us to stand in and celebrate and be with something that we created and to love it and to understand that it has a chance to ripple forth and to light something up in other people. And that's so much of my work

So ever since my first trip back in 2019 there, I've just wanted to connect more to my ancestors and you have been a part of that. So I so appreciate you and all the work that you do. I just had to say that again. And also, yes, your daughter, the musical theater and it's how lucky she is to have you on her side

And I didn't answer your question about the kayak, but I promise that I will in the next round, because she definitely holds this space not just for the shadow, but for the light as well. So

Wow. Thank you so much. I feel so honored that you shared your story on here. I was just really touched by it all. And it's really inspiring to hear all that you've been through and all the different twists and turns that your life has taken you. And I really could visualize it while you were telling me. And I'm picturing you in your basement for some reason, like looking for those books that you used to read when you were 13

You know, it's just life, right? You know that eventually it's going to end in the same way for all of us. It's just life and oh, it's life and how can we hold that with a sense of reverence and with lightness all at the same time?
