Today is October 9th, which marks 11 years since my stepdad passed away from brain cancer at the age of 48. He was robbed of being able to live the second half of his life. The second half where he would have retired, spent time with his grandchildren, go to the beach with my mom for long walks and have the time to live his life after working for most of it. I will never forget when my stepdad helped me turn a spare room in our basement into my very first art studio, he put up custom shelving and a desk. I painted the walls hot pink... he didn’t like my choice but it was on sale (I was in HS and waitressing for $5 an hour) so I thought I scored 😃 After seeing what I was creating with clay, my stepdad told me, “you are going to do something special in your life” As a teenager, I didn’t fully comprehend what he said to me It wasn’t until I came back to my art in 2012 that I knew what that special thing was, Freedom4Ewa 💟 Freedom4Ewa is so special and it is my everything, it is about healing my trauma through my art and sharing my story. Connecting with other survivors and developing those connections into lifelong friendships. Freedom4Ewa is bigger than me, it is a movement, a movement that I hope will show the world how truly powerful Love and Empathy are! I am grateful to have the opportunity at the age of 35 to be able to fully immerse myself into creating and helping others. I am truly living my life, doing what I am meant to do. I survived for this! Live your life everyday with love in your heart! ♥️Smile at someone ♥️Spend time with a loved one ♥️Open the door for a stranger ♥️Take a walk with a friend ♥️Write a letter to your partner ♥️Make time for what and who you love #anniversaryofdeath #stepdad #braincancer #toyoungtodie #memoriesmade #firstartstudio #artstudio #kindheart #makingadifferencetogether #fulltimeartist #healingjourney #artheals #artsaves #maketimeforyou #loveispower #empathyiseverything #domesticviolencesurvivor https://www.instagram.com/p/CGH440JDI7Y/?igshid=1o95o6h1ge85x

I wrote this poem this morning following another night of insomnia. I was emotional and needed to vent. I went to send to a friend and in error hit an old broadcast list sending to many. (sorry those who already have it)

today I struggle to smile through the tears. I am embarrassed that I have fallen yet again. I just struggle with this time of year. I encourage you all to embrace your truth so I stand exposed on my platform of truth. sometimes when I fall it feels like I am letting you all down in some way so shame often renders me silent for a while.

today my mistake broke the walls of silence and many of you heard my cry. thank you for the love that immediately came back. of course I cried more but I no longer felt alone.x x #knifecrime #memiries #anniversaryofdeath #poetry

Tonight last year was the last time you ever spoke. It has been a year of words and pictures and grief for me- repeating you, all the memories I hold, watching the grief for you break into me. Needing to keep my business going but also needing to be still, to be with the wind, to find you in it.

In two days you will be dead. I don’t think there is much I would have changed. I have no regret. Except for songs new to me I wish I could play you now. Here is one of them, Nnagh. I know you would have loved this.

It's already 6 years since my grandmother gone from my life and I'm still missing her. Today is the anniversary of her death. Hope you can see me from heaven, Oma. I'll make our promises true. I will. #Me #Grandmother #AnniversaryofDeath #childhood (at Kos-kosan)
