“Love is the only true power.

Everything else — control, dominance, force — is illusion by comparison. What is so often called power in this world is simply fear wearing a mask.

Fear grasping, defending, posturing. But love has no need to grasp. It does not defend or demand. It simply radiates — whole, free, and undeniable.

Return to it. Let it lead. There is no greater strength.”

If what you’ve read, heard, or felt in this space has opened your heart, brought you comfort, or reminded you of what is sacred —please consider making a donation.

This sanctuary is sustained by love, presence, and the quiet generosity of those who feel called to support it.

Every offering helps tend the fire.
