A Line to Carry

I am always more than I think. More than I do. More, even, than I am.

— from The Waking

What I do in this moment determines what becomes possible in the next.

— from The Standing

The past doesn’t need to be fixed or redeemed or finally understood. It needs to be allowed to be what it was.

— from The Companion

I chose devotion. Not devotion to becoming, exactly. Devotion of self.

— from A Devotion Without Destination

The ground became solid for the first time.

— from The Waking

Cover of The Gift of This Day: Meditations for the Grieving Heart by Spike Humer

Meditations for the Grieving Heart

These meditations were not written to get you through grief but to sit with you inside it.

New Release

Spike Humer is a contemplative author and the founder of SoulWord Press. He writes books, meditations, and quiet practices on becoming, grief, gratitude, and the inner life. His work is for anyone who has felt the pull to go deeper — not to fix what’s broken, but to remember what was never lost.
