The Luxury of Unseen Life In 2025, being unseen is a rare privilege. Most lives are curated, documented, and performed for an audience that is always watching. Choosing to exist without broadcast — to live without constant observation — has become a luxury few can afford. The unseen life is not hidden; it is intentional. It allows space for thought, reflection, and authenticity. It removes the constant pressure to perform, to measure worth in likes, shares, or attention. It is freedom from expectation. Living unseen is radical because it resists the default of visibility. It says: My life does not exist for consumption. It reclaims autonomy in a culture built on exposure and spectacle. In 2025, the boldest statement is often the one made in absence. To protect privacy, presence, and selfhood — to choose invisibility deliberately — is to assert that some things are beyond the gaze of the world. Shocktober Statement: Life that is unseen is life that is fully yours. Protect it, che...

Recently I turned 36. On my post about my birthday several of you asked me what advice I'd give you if you're in your twenties.  If I could sit across from my twenty-something self over coffee, I’d probably smile at how certain she thought life’s “five-year plan” was. The truth is: your twenties are less about having it all figured out and more about building the muscles that help you bend, pivot, and grow when life inevitably changes course. In my twenties I changed careers, city and I was engaged.  Now in my thirties I don't have it all figured out. My engagement ended I moved back home and my career? Non existent. I am multi passionate I have 25 blogs on different topics but nothing really clicks as a career. I work on many projects but I'm not a career girl.  So then with this in mind to the twenty something's out there here’s the advice I’d give: 1. Don’t confuse direction with destination. You’ll likely switch jobs, careers, cities—even identities—more than on...

The Pink Elephant There’s a pink elephant in the room — or maybe more accurately, lurking in the shadows  of this blog. And the funny thing is, it seems to be wearing an apron and carrying a set of tools. That’s right: I can’t help but notice how many masons seem to be reading what I write here. I didn’t go looking for this pattern. It just sort of… emerged. A comment with a familiar turn of phrase, a message that hinted at symbols, a cluster of readers clearly comfortable with metaphor and ritual. After a while, it became impossible to ignore: this space has attracted more than a few of you, and that realization feels both surprising and oddly fitting. How I Noticed the Elephant It started with little things. A few posts I wrote about symbols or architecture drew more engagement than I expected. Then came the emails: polite, thoughtful, with a certain tone I couldn’t quite place at first. Eventually, the pattern clicked, and I realized, “Oh. I think I’ve got masons in the audi...

 Dear life,  It's been a long while since I've updated my audience on what's going on with me so I thought I best do this now while I have a space between series.  We just wrapped up Spiritual September and I've decided to do shocktober for October this year. There's a lot of things in the world that are shocking Daisy Change has a lot to share.  I'm combing through old posts retagging them adding images and social media graphics. It's one heck of a job.  I apparently haven't written a letter to you since my engagement fell through 3 years ago. I'm living with my family back in Wales now and writing had become my bread and butter.  I have 25 blogs across the interwebs  All on different topics but Daisy Change has always been my main one.  15 years and still going strong. We have been through a lot and I'm so glad I built change into the model of daisy change because we are now on Daisy Change's personal and unpretty era.  I'm okay with wr...

 

Wrapping Up Spiritual September 🌼 As September comes to a close, we pause to take a deep breath and look back on the journey we’ve walked together. Spiritual September wasn’t about reaching a finish line—it was about slowing down, noticing the sacred in the everyday, and finding ways to nourish both heart and spirit. Over the past few weeks, we’ve explored different practices and reflections—small seeds planted in our daily routines that remind us to stay rooted in what matters most. Whether you prayed, journaled, walked in nature, lit a candle, or simply took a few extra moments of silence, each step was a movement toward presence and peace. What We’ve Learned Together ✨ Spirituality is personal – There is no single “right way” to connect with God, the universe, or your deepest self. Your path is yours alone, and that is beautiful. ✨ Small rhythms matter – It’s often the quiet, consistent practices—gratitude lists, morning prayers, evening reflections—that shape our days mor...

This is the most personal article I've ever crafted.  Overcoming the “One Eye” of Freemasonry: A Christian Perspective The “all-seeing eye” or “one eye” is one of the most recognizable symbols associated with Freemasonry. For many Christians, seeing this symbol stirs unease, curiosity, or even fear. The good news is that as followers of Christ, we do not need to be shaken by man-made symbols. Scripture reminds us that “greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4). Overcoming the “one eye” is not about battling a symbol—it’s about walking in truth, guarding our hearts, and fixing our gaze on Jesus Christ. 1. Understand the symbol without giving it power The Eye of Providence, often shown as an eye inside a triangle with rays of light, is an ancient symbol used long before Freemasonry. Freemasonry uses it to signify watchfulness and insight. But as Christians, we don’t need secret symbols to remind us of truth: “The eyes of the Lord are in every place,...
