Are you excited?

This is a question I’ve been asked a lot lately in response to the news that .touch.of.jing and are expecting.

Often in a way that implies this is the only thing I should feel.

Yes, excitement is present. More accurately, exuberance to offer what I wasn’t to another human and approach parenting with intention and creativity.

But the experience of entering parenthood comes with it a tapestry of experiences and a wide spectrum of emotions.

Some that feel alive for me include

Fear of putting them in harms way unintentionally by not informing myself about some danger of threat unbeknownst to me? Growing up with a special needs sibling, this feels extremely real.

Becoming a lame or bland person who has become worn down by the minutiae of the daily grind

Will Jing and I’s relationship be as fulfilling or will we become roommates with the shared responsibility of parenting?

The fear of how irreversible stepping into parenthood is.

The overwhelming feeling that there is an infinite amount to learn in order to be a “good parent”

Will I feel paralyzed by the financial burden?

Being judged by others for my decisions as a parent

Acceptance that I may insufferable to my child in some way I have yet to fathom.

Fear of repeating the patterns of my parents

These questions or feelings don’t color my moment to moment experience, but they occasionally punctuate my mood as I step into the role of father. And on some
level, I feel it would be irrational to
not indulge in this wider spectrum of emotional experience.

I know few people who love their birthday as much as my mother.
In all honesty, I used to find it quite annoying.
But upon further inspection, there is a deeper thing at play beyond mere enthusiasm
It is a propensity to move towards life rather than retreat from it
To celebrate its beauty rather than lament it’s tragedies
To transmute pain into light
To fully accept impermanence

As we’ve deepened our relationship as adults, I’ve been able to truly see her in her experience.

And truly understood what it is she is celebrating when she says she is “celebrating life.”

May your heart be full

Happy Birthday Mom

🚨 Life Update 🚨 : .touch.of.jing and I are expecting.
To say it’s been a journey so far would be an understatement.

We feel excited, scared, and cracked open in a multitude of ways.

My fear of expansion is being tested and I’m being called to embody a more powerful version of my self as I step into this new role.

I’m being somatically reminded of the wounds from my lineage and more specially, my father.

The ways in which I must clear inner space to welcome the depth of love I want to impart to this soul.

I feel myself increasingly connected to activities and pass times of times long past, an inner child awakening of sorts.

The portal of birth has proven to be deeply spiritual despite the many practicalities involved.

Off into unknown we go.
With an open heart and an attitude of deep reverence for the soul we have the privilege of guiding.

Asé

For those of you who follow me personally, sorry for the duplicate post haha!

Having chronic illness in my early 20s made me into a fearful, anxious adult who lived a contracted life optimized around one thing safety.

My fears spanned everything from gluten, artificial sweeteners, EMFs, social gatherings, a bad nights sleep, being around my parents, and much more to list out here.

One of the fears I acquired on my healing journey was of the woods and more specifically, Lyme disease 🦠

If you suffered from mysterious chronic health symptoms ten years ago, many practitioners would consider Lyme disease as a possible cause. If you know, you know.

As a result, I rarely hike in the Northeast and never considered camping ⛺️ due to how triggering and destabilizing the experience would be for my nervous system.

Over the years, I’ve been deconditioning this fear and transmuting it into cautious action, self-trust, and surrender.

It doesn’t mean I’ll never suffer, but rather that I take meaningful preventive action WITHOUT living a fearful contracted life.

With the guidance of my friend and IFS practitioner , I was able to connect with those protective parts, understand their needs, and feel ease moving into a week long hiking trip.

No matter the result, unraveling the survival based behaviors that kept my life small feels like a win.

Not to mention the great views, wildlife, and marvels of nature I witnessed.

In what ways has battling chronic symptoms made your life small and fear based?

There seems to be an assumption that if something has a medicinal benefit, it must be good everyone.

That is simply not true.

While I’m not opposed to cannabis use, it is not benign or “healthy”.

This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t indulge, but rather be aware of your choices, connect with your body’s intuition, and examine why you feel you need something.

I’ve moved away from alcohol over the past two years and find myself more pulled towards cannabis, which is a balance that works better for me now.

How do you prefer to indulge?

There are certain decisions you make that truly change the course of your life.

For me, one of those decisions was moving to Shanghai when I was 22.

At the time, I spoke zero Chinese and knew very little about China. It was one of those “why not” moments where the opportunity presented itself, but I had no idea what awaited me.

Little did I know, I would meet my life partner, speak fluent Mandarin, and have an innumerable amount of perspective shifting experiences that would broaden my worldview.

Living in China has brought a richness and depth to my life experience I could have never imagined before getting on that plane ✈️ to Shanghai.

In particular, it really reenforced how relative our values, traditions, and “facts” about reality are. That we mostly seek the same things, but the way we construct meaning is largely shaped by our conditioning. That things that seem obvious or given to you are in fact built upon a series of assumptions and collective stories that are reenforced over years and they are in many instances, just beliefs or preferences and not objective.

Coming back for the first since 2019, many memories, emotions, and the felt sensation of myself at that time feel very alive.

How and why the universe brought me here, I don’t entirely know, but what a blessing it’s been.

Can you relate?
