“Stand on That 1%”










You give

99 percent of the time,

you pour from places people never knew were running dry.

you smile through storms,

show up when the world turns its back,

hold hands that never reached for yours

and still… you give.


But on that one day,

that 1%,

when you choose you

you become the villain in their story.

not because you wronged them,

but because you stopped watering roots that never grew for you.


Let this be your reminder:

Stand. On. That. 1%.


Because those who truly saw you,

those who drank from your rivers and planted seeds beside you,

they’ll still water you.

they’ll understand your silence,

respect your boundary,

honor your breath.

because they too come from love.

fellowship with them.


The only ones who’ll feel betrayed

are the ones who picked your fruit

and never touched the soil.

the ones who came for the harvest

but never stayed for the rain.


So stand.

stand on that 1%

not in guilt,

but in grace.


Stand on the legacy passed down from your flesh & blood

on the same legacy you will pass down to your flesh & blood

you have the entire universe on your side

you have your ancestors on your side

you have divinity on your side

you have you on your side


Stand on your 1%

Not in fear,

But in full bloom.


You are not wrong for choosing peace

in a world that mistook your love for supply.


Stand. On. That. 1%.


Love,

Umi

Returning to Alignment

Loving the Divine means loving all of the Divine’s creations. It is impossible to truly declare devotion while dishonoring the souls that walk this earth each on their own sacred journey. The Divine is woven through everything: in every person, every living being, every moment of grace. To love the Divine is also to love yourself. Self-love is not selfish; it is sacred. It means honoring your soul, living by your values, and aligning your life with who you truly are. This alignment is the bridge between your inner world and the Divine’s truth. My own path has been one of constant learning and unlearning of resetting myself from the inside out. Along this journey, so much has been illuminated that I can no longer ignore. I see now how often I gave my light away to those who did not honor it those whose values did not reflect mine. Those who prioritized their desires on this physical realm over my soul. I offered my spirit where there was only manipulation and deceit. I did all that in t...

True Fellowship: Choosing Souls That Guard Yours

True fellowship is found in those who guard your soul like it’s their own, choosing your eternal growth over temporary gain. In a world that often values transactions over transformation, it’s easy to find ourselves surrounded by people who are more interested in what we can offer than in who we are becoming .  We live in an era of fast friendships, performative connections, and surface-level support . But real fellowship, the kind that nourishes your spirit and aligns with your eternal destiny , is deeper than that. It’s about being in community with people who prioritize your spiritual well-being . People who will tell you the truth even when it’s uncomfortable. People who will pray with you, challenge you, and walk with you through the quiet, uncertain places, not for clout, not for control, but because they care about your soul. These are the people who celebrate your growth even when it means you outgrow them. They don’t compete with your calling . They don’t manipulate y...
