Fearless Free Soul

  • invisible

    September 17th, 2021

    It’s the invisible things
    that we remember
    The act of doing
    sends a charge
    But the act of feeling,
    and being
    leaves a mark

    A formless knowing
    invisible to the human eye
    but deeply visible
    to the internal light
    When something
    feels like home
    But home has no limitations
    freed from visibility’s cage
    So, home becomes
    the formless knowing

    Sometimes I wonder
    if my eyes truly see
    Is the world invisible
    and my human lenses
    make it visible?

    Maybe I’m invisible
    dancing with the shadows
    While the world screams
    through the visible,
    grasping for my attention
    begging for my acceptance

    When I look back
    on my life thus far
    It’s the invisible things
    I cherish the most
    The day I decided to live
    fearlessly
    The moment I realized
    dreams and reality are one
    The second I chose
    to truly love and be me
    To the world, it may blend in
    But to me, it stands out

    So, when I look ahead
    on my life that’s to come
    It’s the invisible things
    I look forward to the most
    The day I feel
    a deeper me
    The moment I listen
    to my heart’s entire song
    The second I fly
    into frequency’s arms
    To the visible, it might be small
    But to the invisible, it is all

  • Smell The Roses

    September 14th, 2021

    They say the journey is the destination and I think I’m finally understanding what that means. Maybe that’s because I can see parts of my map now, or maybe it’s because I’ve let go of needing to see the map. I really don’t think there is a destination, I don’t think I’ve ever thought there was a destination. But I definitely lost sight of the joy in the journey…no more!! 

    A lot of thoughts were flying through my mind last week; a combination of the unknowns of change, the desire for something new and the readiness to let go of repetitive pasts. I actually enjoyed listening to all these unfinished conversations in my head. In the “unfinishedness” I got to see possible new versions of me, older versions of me I’ve known, and I got to watch how the me I am now navigated through every turn.  

    It’s fun to watch where your mind travels, even when it goes to the craziest of places. It’s there you learn that maybe crazy isn’t crazy, maybe it’s just a different point on the map. Part of me knows this life is one of many destinations on my soul’s map. And part of me knows there is no map, I am the map. I love playing in this paradox because that’s where I am free. When we forget to enjoy the little moments and spend time in our daydreams and listen to our inner voice and speak our intuition – we lose sight of who we truly are.

    So, the next time you notice your mind bursting with thoughts, visions and adventures of many varieties take a moment to water those seeds. And when those seeds bloom and become roses, take time to smell the roses. On our family bike rides, there’s always this one spot at the end; a little roundabout of roses. And that literal moment of smelling the roses totally reenergizes the soul. So, imagine what a moment of being still and playing in your mind’s garden can do for the soul? 

    Only you have the power to make your thoughts reality. Only you have the choice to enjoy the freedom of the wandering mind.

    Be fearless and free -Ace

  • uncommon

    September 10th, 2021

    What is normal?
    Fitting in and dressing formal?
    Blending in and becoming the crowd?
    Following and doing what’s allowed?

    I’ve never understood
    Why normal is “good”
    I think life is more than passing by
    It’s an adventure, a time to fly

    Is standing out unique?
    Or simply antique?
    Is being who you truly are
    Deeply fulfilling or just bizarre?

    Why shrink and hide?
    Why comply and abide?
    You have a soul to live
    A purpose to give

    Even though in every conversation
    My “differences” become the fixation
    I smile, grateful for being me
    In this authenticity, I am free

  • Just Be

    September 8th, 2021

    I see life in two forms – external and internal. We all know the external; experiences, choices, actions, activities and achievements build what we believe is true life. In reality, true life is internal. What is within creates what is outside. Our relationship with our souls, our thoughts and our visions truly shape what is external.

    When we sit with ourselves, alone and free from external hustle, we can deeply feel. There’s a certain harmonious peace that comes with just being. And to the external world, just being seems “small” and “unimportant”. It is truly all that is important. Society distracts us and keeps us at a lower vibration for a reason. When we let go and align with who we truly are, our power goes way beyond what society can control. Internal freedom is limitless and in a world obsessed with labels and limits, a deep connection to your soul teaches you to authentically be.

    External life is a blurred vision we make less and less blurry by the way we live our internal life. In each moment we nurture our souls and communicate with the Universe inside, we find the distinct through the hazy – we create our vision. I love the moments that to the external world look “boring” or “unproductive”, but to my internal world are the most meaningful. When I have long, free and deep conversations with my internal Universe I feel most at home. And the best part is: I can have those connections and internal adventures whenever I choose. Even in the busiest of external moments, I can find clarity. I can step back and b r e a t h e. I can look within and live. I can just be.

    I think life is way beyond what we experience, life is who we are and how we live. So, here’s to truly living! I wish you many moments today that let you feel the tingling in your fingers, the rhythm of your heart and the song of your breath. Love authentically, dream freely, listen consciously, speak fearlessly and most of all, just be. -Ace

  • droplets

    September 4th, 2021

    Droplets of time escape my mind
    Drop in my eyes, reality is blind

    Droplets of sky run through my hair
    Trickling down my skin with gentle care

    Droplets of magic journey down my shoulders
    As I continue to journey up these boulders

    Droplets of our lost sun float across my back
    Igniting a heartbeat, creating a track

    Droplets of starlight land on my arms
    Rolling, descending, leaving little charms

    Droplets of the past lay on my fingertips
    Stopping for a moment, the future slips

    Droplets of a cycle start to repeat
    In this melody, nature and I meet

    Ace


    Droplets d r o p
    like rain in my head
    I feel their delicate
    thud
    I hear their subtle
    story

    Droplets flutter
    I know this drop
    Trust lets
    go
    Love lets
    in

    Droplets fly
    in this vision I know
    Scenarios lived over
    and over
    Feelings felt again
    and again

    Droplets clear
    familiar histories
    And
    echoing mysteries
    Sitting in my wave
    thunder rumbles inside

    Change on my horizon
    Something real
    calling my attention
    So, when she follows
    and I surrender the game
    It becomes visible
    the illusion played

    Broken pasts want my repair
    But droplets come and cleanse the air

    Ace


    Had a neat experience with rain (droplets) recently, hence these two droplets 😉! The first piece is about that neat experience, and the second piece is about how that neat experience helped me when something was kind of on my mind. I love when experiences leak into perception and give you a different view on life. I hope this helps you on your journey! Be fearless and free -Ace

  • Alive In The Vortex

    August 31st, 2021

    I take my first step. The rustle of the rocks, the softness of the dirt, the warm embrace of the greenery, the crisp and comforting sound of my shoes touching the ground and the breath of life truly wraps its arms around me. I’ve seen it before, but as I begin this new trek, it’s like a new experience. I guess you could say life is like that sometimes.

    My eyes always look up first, but this time, I look down. I watch my footprints make a mark in the red dirt, I watch the bushes and trees as they speak through their being-ness, I feel the rocks shift as my steps become their beacon of change and I realize I am a piece of them just as they are a piece of me.

    All is silent on this little adventure. My thoughts and my steps are all I can hear, and it is oh so soothing. The voices in my head are swaying to the rhythm of my stride and I find myself looking down at the path ahead. Both rocks and dirt lie ahead, and as I subconsciously decide where to step, I find the balance of both is best. Just as the pillowy dirt is comforting, the rough rocks are very much alive with meaning — it’s a neat analogy that reminds me of my soul within.

    Now, I look up and the voices in my head become deeply still. As the mountains see me, I feel them. There is something so breathtaking about this moment, words float away and silence flows in. So much can be said in the unspoken, and in this moment, conversation has never felt more natural.

    The crunch of my feet evaporates in the beauty of what my two circles see. Red was never my favorite color, but this red is my favorite vision. The textures, the green growing through it, the vastness and the presence of it all takes one to a different dimension. Thoughts seem so foreign, because breath is all that truly exists here.

    The wallpaper of a sky lets my mind get lost in this waking dream. To my eyes and to my body, it all seems so real. But to the me within, it all feels so much bigger. Maybe “real” is just what I imagine it to be.

    I guess the best part of this trek is the freedom through it all. Sure, man carved out this hike to be walkable, but, the hue of Creation birthed this magical life we call nature. I can feel freedom flowing and dancing in every scene. As I ponder about this freedom, I realize the uniqueness of every plant, rock, patch of dirt, and mountain is what makes it is so magical. I think hue-mans are a lot like that.

    I stop to soak in the harmony before I turn back around. I’ve always had this image in my brain of holding my own book in Sedona, and in this moment, I know now is the time to make that image a reality. I let the pages of my words breathe in the melody of peace that surrounds. And as I do this, I hear a tree speaking back to me. So, I let my book rest in its gentle arms. And all feels so truly complete.


    Well, if you haven’t guessed it, I am back in Sedona! It’s already been such a magical trip, I hope my words do it justice! Just wanted to share a piece of it with you and take you into a little vortex of the beauty Sedona brings. Thank you so much for reading! For a fun bonus, I compiled the images into a quick video too! I think these images deserved to be experienced in the stillness of the soul and in the beat of music’s imagination!

  • Stillness

    August 27th, 2021

    There’s such peace in the stillness, I could sit in it for hours. As I stared at this blank screen for a while, there was so much joy in the presence. Part of me didn’t want words to come, but the words just found me as I let go of needing them. 

    The cozy structure of my orbit chair captures my aura. I often think of my orbit chair when I think about energy; just as this chair blocks out the world through its protective walls, there’s an opening where reality can enter and exit. So, just like my aura is my protective shield, there’s still an opening – one I’ve learned to take true care of. That’s the first thought that runs through my head during my adventures in stillness.

    My fingers rest gently on the comfort of my computer’s keys. My eyes rest gently on the comfort of my computer’s blank screen. My soul rests gently in the unknowns of where stillness will take me. This comfort is one I’ve learned to love. In the past, the still and the lack of words would create a rush in my mind. But now, one of my favorite parts about writing are those moments where I don’t know what’s going to come. There’s a certain indescribable thrill there.

    I feel the tingling in my hands and the energy in my toes. I get to that place where all is so still and alive, that feeling goes away. It’s not at all numbness, it is a beingness – I’m so deeply aware of every wave in my soul, that the body floats away. I first found this state in practicing lucid dreaming, it immediately felt like home. All labels, constructs and movement go away – it’s just me and that something within. You know when you’re in the car and you know you’re going at 50 mph, but you just don’t feel it? Now imagine that feeling in your own vehicle, your body; that’s the state I’m talking about. I know I am in my body but in this delightful stillness – I don’t feel it.

    Years ago, the stillness scared me. Today, the stillness is my favorite place to be. I find it in the rush, I find it in the unknown and I become it whenever I choose. It’s an instant reboot on reality, an instant connection to the Universe (you). So today, when the speed of life tries to encapsulate you, breathe and be still. Find the comfort in the presence of deeply being and sit in the depths of truly being alive. You are in control of the way you live. -Ace

  • passion

    August 25th, 2021

    Our journey has felt anything but short
    Deeply meant to be, nothing to abort
    The true feeling when we step on court
    Is so much more than the sport

    Forgetting the outside
    Tennis is our pride
    Alive with passion, fear has died
    Here we are, enjoying the ride

    Strings brush the ball
    True power through it all
    Growing in every phase
    Alert with every raise

    Hard work has never felt so uplifting
    Although our dreams are shifting
    Love of the game will never fade
    No matter how many points are played

    Ace + Geo (my little bro)


    So fun to collaborate with my little brother again! We are both competitive tennis players and train together daily. A friend challenged us to write about tennis, and this piece was born! It was crazy to summarize twelve years of playing a sport in a few lines, but if there’s anyone who could do it with me, it’s my bro! Being an athlete has blessed me in so many ways; one of those ways is in becoming fearless and free, another is in strengthening my relationship with my brother. Go check out his site if you haven’t already, he’s full of joy vibes! Thank you for reading, we hope this helps you on your journey! Be fearless and free -Ace

  • A Special Post 🖤

    August 23rd, 2021

    One year ago today, I embarked on this journey of blogging. I still remember that day vividly. Something inside of me was yearning to express and to share, and I had to follow the call; the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. If you would’ve told me then where I would be in my blogging experience in one year, I wouldn’t have believed you.

    Writing and creating has truly changed me in so many beautiful ways. Blogging has been such an amazing space where I’ve learned how to grow, balance, be vulnerable, freely share and fearlessly shine. I’ve met so many different versions of me, and I am eternally grateful for all those meetings.

    But most of all, this community has truly blessed me in countless ways. Words really can’t describe my deep gratitude for my WordPress family. I feel lucky to be able to say I’ve made true friends here and connections I’ll cherish forever.

    A huge shout out and thank you to my family, who have supported me in every way possible. This blog, this me, would not be alive without them. Gratitude seems like a big word most of the time, but, in regards to my family, it feels very small – so family, thank you for always being there and for teaching me to be fearless and free!

    In honor of my first blogging anniversary, I figured we could do something fun and different! I love Q&A’s and taking you all behind the scenes and into my mind! So, welcome to The Ultimate Blogging Q&A!


    Where to begin!!! Alright, what are some of your earliest memories of blogging?

    Well, my first memory is in creating the website. I remember feeling so deeply engaged in the process and trying to figure out WordPress. I was so intrigued, there was no way I was going to bed that night without having a completed site! And then the next day, I released my first post, Journey of the Free Soul. And I got my first comment, that was pretty special. I still remember all my feelings and thoughts about it in those early days…a mix of excitement, freedom (as I’d come from a platform that was censoring me) but still a lot of unknowns. It was probably the first time I’d truly been excited for unknowns.

    How did you come up with the name Fearless Free Soul?

    The night before I made the website, I was exploring some ideas. ‘Thriving’ was my first idea, but I wanted a website with .com. I know, that’s so specific 🤪. And then Fearless Soul came in my head. And I loved that as it described so much of my journey in two words. But, the perfectionist in me hated the three s’s in a row 😆. Free popped in my mind and I just knew in that moment, Fearless Free Soul was the one…it was like an instant connection.

    So, in 1 year of blogging you’ve made 3 video albums, a virtual cookbook, written 3 books, published 1 book and have just released a video EP. How does that feel? Did you expect to do this much?

    I never dreamed I’d have done all these projects! Video-making never ever occurred to me until October. Creating food videos in a virtual cookbook was so neat because for years I’ve watched food videos and been inspired by them. So, to do it was pretty surreal. Writing a book seemed like a far-away dream, let alone 3. Publishing a book, my goodness I still have no words for that! I’ve just been following my intuition and going with the flow along the way — miracles truly are born when we listen to our inner flow!

    Where do you get your creative inspiration?

    Life! Wherever the journey takes me, truly. Even my prose or seemingly “fictional” pieces are truly based on my current emotions, feelings, thoughts or experiences. I just follow my soul and create for my fulfillment within. I always know deep down inside what I want to get out into the world, and I trust that call. That’s another amazing part about blogging, you’ll be going through something or thinking about specific things and that moment when you decide, “I’m going to write or create something about this,” is pretty awesome. It makes you realize life is really your creation.

    What’s your favorite part about blogging?

    I love the connection. Not just the connection with all my lovely friends here, but the connection between my fingers and the keys, the connection with my soul and the connection to my life. Blogging experiences always match perfectly with my life experiences, it’s like the neatest of synchronicities.

    Any advice for new bloggers?

    Enjoy the journey! In the beginning, it seems all new and overwhelming, but it’s really just YOU. You create your experience. Have fun, it’s your blog — write for you! Post when you feel like it, always keep creating no matter the posting and trust your intuition! This blogging journey teaches you so so much, follow your soul and you will grow with each and every lesson.

    And finally, what are some of your favorite posts of yours?

    Omg, that’s too hard!!!!! In the spirit of creative variety, I’ll give you one of everything. Dare To Be Silent – my favorite video. reality is dreaming + the bitter series – my favorite poems…reality is dreaming, only available in my published book, The Waking Dream! The Life Of Her Journal – my favorite prose. The Pyramid Of Success – my favorite article. There are many more favorites, but this is what came to me immediately!


    Thank you so much for reading and celebrating with me today! I am so grateful to have all of you on my blogging journey! Be fearless and free in this waking dream we call life! Sending lots of love, always!

  • a piece of his-story

    August 22nd, 2021

    As the stars smile

    Promises cradled by the breeze
    Illustrate love’s freestyle
    Eying destiny with ease
    Ceasing the now
    Erasing the how

    Owning my tale
    Forging my trail

    Habits become the quest
    Imagination is all the rest
    Seize the day, be your own ray

    –

    Seeking what’s around
    Testing our sound
    Oaths spoken long ago
    Realizations we truly know
    You are a piece of history

    Ace

    I always love acrostic poetry, and this one was especially fun as I got to dance with wordplay. I hope this helps you on your journey and reminds you that his-story is more than we realize. Be fearless and free!
