welcome to
brighten casa
let's clean the house. open the windows, front door, back door, closets. give yourself permission to let everything go. when was the last time fresh air seeped through the cracks, the floorboards, your chest packed tightly with worry? begin again friend, each day is a chance to brighten your home, your heart, tu casa.
BRIGHTEN CASA

i love him

my dad, brother, sisters, grandmothers, grandpas, friends
our yellow family home in america
our yellow family home on the island
dominican food and music
jesus
dogs, all dogs and every dog
green
my bed
i love different, please stay different
tampa bay, st. croix and atlanta
noble people
broken people
justice seekers
the peacemakers
coffee with rum
shinny wood floors and moody music
honesty
fluffy things
glittery things
korean dramas
resistance
​
golden light of the morning
hot tea 3x a day
strong coffee in small cups
when people actually care
empty spaces
modern art galleries
book clubs with besties
learning from the wise
empty spaces
dancing
running
his eyes
the sunrise, anywhere in the world
holding baby
truth
yoga
spanish
complex personalities
writing when i have nothing
becoming
creating
celebrating
i love possibility
dreaming
i love loving
​
i love to write.
