About In Obscurity

What is this?

In Obscurity is a space for those who feel the pull toward something deeper, something slower, something unseen by the masses but known in the quiet. This is for the ones who have left the noise, the ones learning to hear again. The ones who ache for meaning beyond metrics, for formation beyond performance.

Here, we live in the tension of urban grit and monastic rhythm. We embrace the hidden work, the slow burn of becoming, the long road of faith that refuses to be packaged neatly. This is where contemplation meets the street corner, where silence is holy, and where the unseen places hold the most weight.

What you’ll find here

- Honest reflections on faith, presence, and formation.

- Thoughts on the hidden life, the slow work of God, and living outside the algorithm.

- Stories of leaving behind the noise and embracing the unseen way.

- Notes on grief, growth, and what it means to live a contemplative life in the modern world.

What you won’t find here

- Hot takes, clickbait, or content optimized for engagement.

- Easy answers.

- Hustle culture.

- The pressure to be seen, known, or impressive.

Who is this for?

- Those who crave a quieter, richer way of being.

- The ones tired of performance-based spirituality.

- People drawn to monastic rhythms but rooted in an urban world.

- Seekers, doubters, contemplatives, and those somewhere in between.

Why stay?

Because here, there is space. Wide enough for your questions. Deep enough for your formation.

You don’t have to impress anyone here. You don’t have to curate a version of yourself to be accepted. You just have to show up, breathe deep, and embrace the beauty of the hidden way.

About Me

I’m Meiko, a writer, contemplative, and community builder seeking the sacred in the unseen. I’m planting a community of faith called Uncommon City in St. Petersburg, Florida—a place where people can gather, explore, and live out the good, beautiful, and true way of Jesus. I believe in slow conversations, long walks, and the holiness of the hidden places. If you’re drawn to a faith that moves at the pace of presence rather than performance, you’re in the right place. Let’s journey together.

Let’s walk this road together.
