noun

a group of islands.

This word resonates for me as an existential human & therapist, as I view each of us as an island with unique characteristics. Funnily enough, I recognize that this is also a commonality we share with one another. While it can be lonely at times, this human experience is also profound and connective. If we look for authentic kinship with the other “islands” around us, we find community, love, freedom, and agency. In that connection, we also find ourselves.
