Sons Who Light My Inner Sun

February 28, 2026 Emily Samuels-Ballantyne

Beneath grey clouds, the world felt cold in my hands.
My sons reached for me, left and right.
Their warmth travelled inward, awakening my sun.
Small hands carrying immeasurable light.
Through them, love became living warmth again.
Between my sons, winter dissolved.
And my inner sun began to shine.

“Con Viv, ‘with life’, is our practice: soil cared for, senses awake, communities in circle, stories shared. Take that lens with you, and let it shape how you live.” - Dr Demeter
