We're dancing through the smoke
And we don't mind the flames
Now we become the ghost
That you know by name

Imagine we are higher than the sparrows
Casually we're breathing with the pharaohs
Tragically we fall just like the arrows
You will hear our voices echo
We are the hearts
We will never be bought and sold
We are the hearts
And the future runs through our bones
Forever singing

Here I want to stress that perception of losing one’s mind is based on culturally derived and socially ingrained stereotypes as to the significance of symptoms such as hearing voices, losing temporal and spatial orientation, and sensing that one is being followed, and that many of the most spectacular and convincing of these symptoms in some instances psychiatrically signify merely a temporary emotional upset in a stressful situation, however terrifying to the person at the time. Similarly, the anxiety consequent upon this perception of oneself, and the strategies devised to reduce this anxiety, are not a product of abnormal psychology, but would be exhibited by any person socialized into our culture who came to conceive of himself as someone losing his mind.

You're a beautiful addition to this world

We are offering our space for anytime not just during winter or the holidays, to anyone who is alone, in need, tired, cold, depressed, repressed, oppressed, angry or happy, anyone who wnna eat a meal and get new clothes n pce out again right away, anyone who wnna watch a movie, who wnna talk, who wnna play music or make music or play a game, make things out of old things, paint a picture, design the future. That's what we do. As long as you aren't energy vampiring, or breaking safe space rules, you are part of our family and we welcome you to join in the tiny revolution at our house.

When we recognize the light of your own being, we liberate ourselves and our own spirits from self defeating beliefs, we take back our power to consciously create and take responsibility for our lives and all that is in it, we are neither victims nor survivors, we are not struggling or getting by, we choose not to suffer, we make every experience into an opportunity to seize, for we are all masters just waiting to be unleashed, the possibilities of what we are capable of and what we can accomplish are limitless; there can be no darkness where there is light.
