I could say so many things; but, I know inside, you’ve already heard them all. Instead, I deeply listen because I am you in all that I do. There are some days that you become blurry for moments; but I always see you. You allow miracles to knock on my door and when I open the door, you are there — the magical elixir of this journey.
You make me genuinely happy, you let me genuinely feel and you teach me to genuinely be the best me. I love the days when I get the tingling feeling in my bones that you are taking care of me in the most divine way. Those days, when the stars align so synchronistically, let my heart beat louder. I even love those days when the stars seem far away because I know I’m growing and evolving into a brighter constellation.
All those years I didn’t believe in you, make these days even sweeter. Through sipping this elixir, I’ve learned to love my past in all its forms and phases. I feel I can see this journey through your perspective. And my eyes, my intuition, tell me this human experience is much more grand than we are led to believe.
The Universe opens its arms to all. Only when we realize it is us who are it, can we taste this elixir.
The elixir has always been ME.
I wrote this piece some time ago, after re-reading my post A Thousand Walls. So, originally this piece, Elixir, was more about my past. But after revisiting it, it has sort of morphed into an open conversation with the Universe — me. So here’s to embracing our past, being open to all and loving ourselves through this journey we call life! Be fearless and free -Ace

Grace’s Questions
If you could change one thing in the world, what would that be? – That we are only shown the truth and nothing but the truth.
What is your favorite movie? – The Sun Is Also A Star or Sing Street
What is your favorite quote? – “Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.” – John Wooden
Who has in influenced your life the most? – My parents. Honestly, I could write a whole post about them but, in short, I wouldn’t be the person I am today without them. To say I am grateful is such an understatement.
What has been the biggest lesson you learned this past year? – To never settle for a lower vibration in people, places or experiences. This also comes with trusting my intuition, because my intuition always knows the frequencies I am meant to align with.

Geet’s Questions
What are your opinions on my (Geet’s Society) blog? – I love your site!! I am always empowered and inspired after reading your beautiful work! I love how you take big topics and explain them in a simple and authentically YOU way. I feel very lucky to have found you and your incredible spirit!!
How would you describe yourself as? – I am a fearless and free soul, athlete, writer, dreamer and creator.
What made you realize you wanted to be a blogger? – In 2020, I had this drive to create and get my voice out there. So, I originally was sharing quotes and poems on a small platform. And then I got censored a lot, even once for an image that only said, “Love Yourself”. It was kind of crazy to me, but it all worked out. I started craving a place where I could truly be free, and this blog was born! It has blossomed into something I had never dreamed of and I am eternally grateful.
What’s your favorite sport? Why do you like it? – Tennis!! I am a competitive tennis player and have been playing for 12 years. I love the game because whenever I play, I get to experience the zone. The zone is that flow where thinking disappears, all distractions evaporate, and you lean into the adrenaline of every moment. It’s the zone where you feel most at home, most alive and most free. And I am addicted to it 😊
What song speaks to you the most? – Tough question!! Alamo – Alec Benjamin or Intuition – Maejor. Note – I love these songs, but they’re not my favorite, more so what speaks to me.
What’s the one thing that you miss when you were little? – My brother and I used to play restaurant in our play kitchen with our stuffed animals. We’d spend countless hours “cooking” and “serving” away!! It would be cool to go back to that me and experience it one more time.
What is a quality in yourself that you hate? – I don’t hate anything about myself, I love who I am and who I’m becoming. But, I am working on overthinking. It’s gotten so much better over the years, but still a nagging thing in my mind. I keep learning and I know my intuition is all I need to listen to.
How do you practice self care in your worst days? – I talk out loud to the Universe (me) and rely on my foundation that always reminds me “all is meant to be and always ok.”
What are your pet peeves? – This is weird, but the sound of metal on metal really drives me crazy.
Which one has been your most favorite post on your blog so far? – Omg, I have no idea!! I could go on and on about my favorites. If I had to choose one right now, it would be: more than a word. It was my first spoken word and I truly had to be fearless and free in releasing it. And the feedback was just beyond touching and amazing, something I never dreamed of.
What do you do in your free time, when you’re bored? – Listen to music, create, daydream, sleep or talk to a friend.
Anushka’s Questions
What is the best thing about my blog? (Anushka Stories) – Your poems!! I absolutely love your poems and the meaning, depth, imagery, beauty and dreamy flows you create! You are so talented and just such a beautiful creator!
What is your favorite character in a story book? – Katniss Everdeen (The Hunger Games)
Who do you love the most? And why? – My family because they are my forever team, and I wouldn’t be the person I am today without them; I am so grateful we walk this journey together.
Would you rather help a person or ask a person for help? – I’d definitely rather help a person.
Mention some weird things you usually do? – I think for myself, I daydream, I don’t see limitations, I live beyond labels and I have out loud conversations with the Universe.
Do you like reading in the library or would you like to read online? – I’d rather read in the library but my first choice would be in my cozy orbit chair!
Filarance’s Questions
What’s your favorite recipe? – Oh boy, this is impossible to answer! I love to cook and have too many favorites. Some of my favorite recipes can be found in my virtual cookbook, Acing The Kitchen.
How important is your blog for you? – Very important! It’s a place where I can fulfill my purpose, be fearless and free and express my deepest thoughts/wonders/dreams. It’s also where I get to connect with so many amazing friends, I will always be truly grateful for that.
Did you meet an old friend recently? – Yes, actually.
How happy are you today? – Very happy! Authentically happy!
What’s your dream in life? – To fulfill my purpose of raising the frequency of this Universe and to inspire others to truly be fearless and free.
What do you like most about the country you are living in now? – The size and how each state is unique and different.
If you could travel anywhere, what would your top 3 places be? – Sedona AZ, the future, and the beyond that I often refer to 😊.
Name the first 5 things you see right now? – My computer I’m typing on, my mom, my dog, my hands and the light.

Tomorrow is a new day, but I’ve already lived it Realizing this is all my imagination from another dimension United by love, all is an illusion Stillness is my deeper peace of the divine Thoroughly alive through every crevice of my breath
Maybe just tell me I’m not dancing alone You’re within me, but can we have a conversation in my dream?
I guess the mystery is the magic Next life, I’d like to learn that sooner Nestling in my aura, I see you Every past, future and now all blend together Resting in my flame, brewing in my eternity
Mortality is this life’s catch Endings aren’t bitter, they don’t really exist Loving this cycle, I go round and round Oozing with wonder through every motion Dazed by the flow’s adrenaline Yesterday is an old day, but I haven’t lived it

I trust my inner melody
I love writing acrostic poetry, and it’s been a little while since I’ve done one. If you’re new to that style, it just means the first letter of every line creates a special phrase. Acrostic poems are truly an adventure and a discovery to create, I encourage you to give it a try! So, what is the phrase here?
Thank you so much for reading. I hope this helps you on your journey! Be fearless and free -Ace
Thank you so much to my dear friend, MariaTeresa for this collaboration!! She is a force of light, a beacon of the divine and a fierce warrior of love!! We hope you feel the love, fire and soul medicine in each of these pieces!!! What’s your favorite?? I’d so love to hear!! Be fearless and free -Ace
There was a sun planted in a wallpaper of a sky. The sun was an infinite being and very much alive. It shined an enchanting glow to all, but only the few who had tapped into their own light could truly see.
One day, a cloud covered the sun’s soul. The sky went dark and murky, and all of the sudden the world seemed so lost. The sun smiled through its rays, as the cloud shifted a little.
With one ray peeking through the cloud’s dome, the sun felt so peacefully still. Its light was being shadowed, but its heart was beaming. The sun had remembered it was a star.
The cloud tried to expand, it tried to drift to cover the sparkling rays; but, it was still losing this invisible battle. The cloud couldn’t get to the sun – no matter how hard it tried, the sun just smiled and sat deeper in joy’s depths.
The sun gently, preciously and lovingly whispered to the cloud, “I forgive you.”
The cloud lost all control, it was flustered by the sun’s genuine love. And in an instant, the cloud disappeared. The world was aglow once again, as the sun basked in freedom. All had changed with just a few simple words.
In my eyes, skies are still warm In my heart, breaths are still surviving I search for meaning of all existence, as I draw lines in my mind. So many doors of emptiness surround me as time scatters, but even the eye has an exit. I fall asleep on my pillow of pain and hope to awake on a wing and a prayer. A fullness then gathers inside me, and I now feel anything but ordinary. I watch love nestle in every crevice of my being, I watch the stars pour their light into my veins. That something extraordinary is without form, boundless and forceful. A gentle whisper A ferocious cry, all at once. The sun sets behind the ocean of my dream, and rises over the sky of my vision. The wind blows through every thought in my collection. The trees and the flowers cradle my heart, while the mountains nudge me to grow. I’m in this infinite flow, or maybe I am this infinite flow. And I now feel anything but ordinary.
It was so magical to work with the amazing Diana on this piece! She’s always inspired me and I feel very lucky to call her a dear friend! Diana’s lovely instagram reels also inspired this video!
I hope this piece reminds you that you are anything but ordinary!!
We are all puzzle pieces in the infinite puzzle of this life. Each piece is unique in their structure and color. But together, all these unique pieces create something bigger than their forms, something divine. The Universe in each piece reflects upon the other, because together, we are one.
We are each a unique wave in this eternal ocean of the Universe. Each wave with its own force, its own rise and crash, its own depth and its own soothing sound. But together, each wave connects into something much more ethereal, a forever intrinsic feeling. The light within each fragment of every wave shines, because together, we are one.
We are each a step on this endless staircase of destiny. Each step is equal, but special in its purpose, action, foundation and gentle nudge. Together, every step helps each other evolve and build something grand, something sacred. The inspiration to progress and the drive to climb this boundless journey is found within, because together, we are one.
We are each a magnet connected to this board of fate. Each magnet is distinctive in its personality, design, perception and strength. But together, all the magnets unite and present something deeper, something precious. The wonder and character through the vastness in each piece travels through many dreams, because together, we are one.
We are One. We are a team, here for a reason and living this dream together!! I’d so love to hear your favorite analogy!! Be fearless and free – Ace
You whisper sweet somethings to me when I’m weak, You do the talking for me when I can’t speak.
The thought of you keeps me company, I find comfort even in your critique. Your soul upon mine, Melds into something unique.
What if love is more than emotions in its entirety? Maybe love is more than you and me entirely? The music of your aura is the answer, The force behind my smile, the dreamy dancer.
You’re still with me no matter my imperfection, It’s the beauty in the way you stay for my protection. Maybe we’ll meet in some other dimension, For now, you’re just my reflection. Standing in the mirror, revealing who I should be And loving this version that I see.
I am whole, you were my missing peace, I see you in me, I hear you within. Anchor your heart here and leave it down, You’ll always be there if I ever drown.
What if I told you this life is imaginary? A distant vision, a sparkled existence, a perfect temporary It can be scary But that’s a choice On the contrary You can harness your inner voice The director of this dream Your eternal team It’s hard to believe this is it Born, grow up, work and die It has to be an illusion, a lie We’re here for a reason Believe in the beyond, look me in the eye You are more than this human vessel You are something special A blazing roar An adventure to explore With wings to soar And love as your core You’re an infinite being It’s freeing No more agreeing Let’s start seeing Seeing our soul Seeing our heart Seeing our truth And then feeling This magical healing As you start to emerge Your beliefs will diverge You’ll realize nothing is outside Everything is within You’re more than skin You’re alive, you’re divine You’re whole, you’re in control This is your quest Let me take care of the rest Destiny is already coming to be Wake up and see You are me
