Thank you for visiting Pajolo Cam.
You can find my blog under “the good stuff” (latest posts to the right of this page) where I write and ramble about all sorts of things, heart on my sleeve! I post some of my poetry there as well. Take a look around & leave a comment if you so desire!
rapid mind / rabbit-hearted
Pajolo (he/her) is a Fil-Am writer, musician, and collager; in love with the moon and a good cup of coffee. Influenced by moody Seattle skies and the horrors of generational trauma, his craft is dedicated to finding joys in the mundane with an anti-imperialist lens. She is an avid doodler, blue-enjoyer, and above all, an optimist.
devotions
In the whirlwind of living as a 20-something-year-old, I’ve found four values to ground myself in. They spell out the word HEAL. Constantly bouncing back from the past, uncertain about the future, and facing anxieties of the present (mind thinking rapidly, the heart beating endlessly), I’ve found solace in expressing my woes through writing.
Harmony
Magic is everywhere if you know where to look. Harmony is found with intention. Be kind and stay true to the nature of your body. Ask somebody how their day was.
Expression
Only you have the power to share your own stories. Celebrate the conversations and opportunities that your heart desires to have and revel in rejection. Try again, nothing is permanent (you can always change your mind).
Authenticity
Be courageous in setting boundaries, being passionate, and serving the allegiance to self. Releasing shame is no easy task, but it is certainly worth it.
Learning
Seek to understand and implement (or discard) new perspectives. Even in pockets of time, there is room to expand. Find the lessons learned and count your blessings. Move forward knowing that rivers will always flow and stars will always die.
