Start Here

If you’ve found your way here, something’s likely shifting. Maybe quietly. Maybe all at once. Either way—you’re welcome.
This is Stone & Tides—a blog rooted in reflection, contradiction, and emotional clarity.
It’s not about fixing things. It’s about facing them.
Soft thoughts. Hard truths. That’s the undercurrent here.
What You’ll Find Here
🪨 Quiet essays, not loud opinions
🌊 Personal reflections that lean inward before outward
🧭 Thoughts on boundaries, belonging, grief, change, and all the weird contradictions in between
I write from a place of stillness, but not stagnation. This is for people who are tired of numbing and ready to name what they feel. Or at least try to.
Suggested Reads to Begin With
Start with whatever pulls at you. But if you want a guided tide:
- “Let Them Walk Away… After You Speak Your Truth”
When letting go isn’t passive—it’s deliberate. - “The Volume of Silence”
Why not saying something often says everything. - “Still Here, Still Changing”
A quiet check-in with the version of you that’s not trying to perform.

Final Note:
You don’t need to introduce yourself.
You don’t need to explain why you’re here.
Just read what speaks to you—and leave the rest.
Welcome to the space between stone and sea.
