Letters from a living being
newsletter exposing my internal movements to the external gaze
writing | research | inquiry | education | praxis
In the series of one year from 2020 to 2021, I dedicated myself to a writing practice and opened up my internal explorations to a wider audience. Each morning, I wrote a letter—a daily delight of unapologetic honesty and insatiable curiosity—revealing the vulnerable unfolding of my being in an attempt to understand my actions, learned behaviors, and those of others. I dove deeper into mundane experiences while creating a framework that later became a practice of Radical Innocence.
​
I shared the intimate thoughts and discoveries I was making during these internal investigations towards embodying and practicing Radical Innocence, which comprises a set of principles and values that guide me in both my personal life and professional practice.
Writing became a way for me to discover my own methods of practicing life, being human, and, at times, becoming animalistic. While drifting in my own rivers, I invited my readers to join me, encouraging them to connect their own dots, relate to my experiences, wrestle with complexity, and experience both mourning and laughter that filled their personal narratives.
​
These letters, at times clumsy and impulsive, but sometimes clever and to the point, became a collection of honest observations and a representation of an internal search for meaning. I relied on the gaze of my audience to extract insights and commit to a disciplined routine—showing up in what is, daily and without exception.
​
At the moment, my writing practice is less regular, yet I continue to send irregular letters that give a glimpse into where I am in the process of becoming. Subscribe and watch me cry and laugh as I drift toward uncertainty, confront existential awkwardness, and reveal my blind spots.
