Cantaloupe Salad

Cantaloupe Salad – I don’t know the last time I posted a recipe. This summer a friend gave me cantaloupes. Yes, plural, that is the Costco way. Knowing we were not going to eat both before embarking on a holiday, I had the bright idea of making salad. Here are the ingredients: cantaloupe (peeled, seeded, and diced), fresh orange mint (any variety will do, but I do love the orange mint), fresh basil, lemon, thyme, feta, sea salt, splashes of lemon olive oil (any flavor will do, however, I am really loving this brand –OMG Olive Oil ), dash of fresh apple cider, honey, a couple grinds from a fresh pepper mill, you can even toss in salami and prosciutto if you want to make it a full meal.

the Spiral of Healing

Healing isn’t linear.

It’s spiral. 🌀

You’ll meet the same wound at different altitudes.

Each time, you’ll have more capacity.

More compassion.

More space to hold what once destroyed you.

That’s integration.

We live in cycles and in spirals. Nothing is ever a linear path, so we’re never really backtracking or seeing the same wound again but rather a different perspective on that wound as we heal.

Don’t hear what wasn’t said

I heard this quote online: Don’t hear what I didn’t say.” And it speaks volumes. So many of us distort reality by filling in the blanks with our worst fears. Someone says, “I can’t help you today,” and you hear, “You’re annoying.”

Sometimes the story you’re telling yourself is the problem—not what the other person actually said. You’re projecting your fears onto neutral information, and that’s why you feel bad. It has nothing to do with them and everything to do with the narrative you’ve created. Practice hearing exactly what was said. Not what you fear it means. Minaa
