Hi there!

I'm Catt. I'm a deep thinking person who always has lots of ideas and questions about where things came from and why. I love a great discussion and helping those around me think more deeply and develop stronger integrity. You can read more about my blog and myself on my about page!

“No one else has access to the world you carry around within yourself; you are its custodian and entrance. No one else can see the world the way you see it. No one else can feel your life the way you feel it.” (Anam Cara, John O’Donohue) • I just spent the past hour and half setting my new intentions. Not much has changed but my specificity has changed enormously. I spent a lot of time looking into how my archetypes play into the lenses with which I view the world, and how I might intend for them to be properly expressed in the world. • I am surprised when I meet people who think the outside world is more important, because how can you match up to anything outside of your interior is weak? Tend to the inner worlds, and don’t be so scared to do so. Be more scared to enslave yourself to the outer worlds, and never experience the freedom of mastering the inner world. Just a reminder of the day. #quotesaboutlife

Chilly spring 🥣🌱🌬 • After the winter, spring will come. Even if you resist it, Life will pull you out of the earth and bring you into the world. • I’ve been appreciating the solitude a lot - maybe a little too much. The roots have been firmly planted, and I sense it’s time to grow into spring, despite the fears that keep me burrowing into winter. I’ll still keep my solitude, but I sense it’s also time to grow. Thank you for the solitude and peaceful energy after handling one of the greatest challenges to date. Looking forward to what next challenge calls me. • This Tuscan pea soup tastes better than it looks. I love the Scandinavian vibes of it; so looking forward to my first trip to Scandinavia.

Spring blooming in the UK 🌸🦉🐥🌿🇬🇧 • One time at a Buddhist meditation group, we talked about Spring. They saw beautiful blooms, but I saw the blooms signifying the end of something old that may not be comfortable, but was nonetheless what I got used to. • New things blooming into our lives seems like it’s clearly something to feel good about, but it’s not always easy to let go of the old, even when it’s gorgeous blooms that are the new things coming into the picture. • I get scared of the future like anyone else, letting go of what came before to move into the future that may not have all the things I have come to enjoy and appreciate in the past. But my springtime prayer as it blooms in the U.K. is that I will be able to gracefully let go of one period, and move onto the next with my head held tall and my shoulders back. Ready for you whenever you are, change.

🎶Mis Planes Son Amarte Y Los tuyos son a la luna 🌕 @juanes • It’s nearing half a year since moving away from Taipei. I find I don’t miss anything about living anywhere particular, just because I‘m more focused on adapting to a place all the time, and I require all my creative energy for that, every day. • I do miss my music though. I miss songs like these coming from my hands and body. I miss holding my guitar at night, playing and whispering songs from amazing artists who have created such beautiful works of music. I miss hearing songs and translating them into reality. I spend time in music shops here pretending to buy guitars but just needing to play and sing a little - sometimes a lot - and even had to get the shop guy to take the beautiful Taylor 800 series I was playing away from me, should I never leave the store. • Art must be created, or the artist will cease to exist. That’s the most dangerous thing about art and being an artist. People say it’s risky to be an artist, but it’s far more risky to not be one if you are one. It’s just about coming to terms with who you are and who you choose to be from it. For me, it’s a matter of survival. • Praying that the next coming months will bring my artist and athlete back into my life to express in a deeper, more meaningful way than ever. I listen to this clip I recorded in December a lot, trusting the plans of what I’m led to do and where I’m asked to go. Todo va salir mejor ♥️

Moments like these make me pause and reflect on how grateful I feel to be around today; that there were many days in the past where I thought maybe I won’t make it, but here I am today, here I am now and what a gift it is to be here, where I am, following what is meaningful and powerful to me. Always knowing where I am, when I’m doing what I’m meant to be doing or not, taking actions to correct my mistakes to live a better life tomorrow. It’s always ongoing gradually, but these moments are one of those moments where I looked back and realized hey, I’m really glad I stayed on and pulled through when I did. Amen and prayers for us all to keep going well in this world and make it what we can.

What path are you here to take? I’ve asked myself this question so many times, wondering whether what I’m doing today is truly aligned to who I’m becoming and who I’m meant to become. I increasingly rely on my faith to determine the paths to take. It’s an amazing feeling. • I think the hard thing to discern about being on your path is whether you’re on the wrong path, but putting so much effort into something that won’t work out, or you’re meant to be pushing forward through a certain period. We always want to justify our own position and what we think we want. • But deep down, we definitely know the difference. We know when we’re simply trying to force our own agendas, or it’s one of those times that’s going to be really hard, and you just have to push through. I’ve learned not to complain, rather, to listen, honestly and earnestly. To not act impulsively, but know when to act when the time is right. This is the dance of life, and if playing it feels good sometimes and hard others, that’s great. I don’t look to have an easy life, just one deeply rich in meaning, and one that can hopefully justify the hardships I have to endure. • Never stops.
