I believe there is no small irony in the name of our new favorite coffee shop in our new neighborhood - SoulFood. Especially as it relates to a new community we have found in our busy lives which allows the people who enter this space to be their best, authentic selves. A 'come as you are' joint which exudes the calming scent of incense, home, acceptance and love.
In my life currently, I am working on being a truer, more authentic self. I decided I was not able to complete this work on my own and have sought the guidance of someone willing to help and guide me through this journey. A part of this journey has been searching out communities and people who support authenticity and seek truth as well. SoulFood Books is one of these places and I/we have been blessed to find several other spots, such as Wilderness Awareness School (WAS), Oxbow Farm and some incredible friends who are totally cool with me being my wacky, weird self.
