You will never be done…
You will never be done, learning, exploring, rising, falling, changing and growing.
You’re a master piece that’s not meant to be complete. So stop trying so hard to get to “the end.”
The end will find us all, whether we’re ready for it or not. So be present in this day. Celebrate this day, enjoy this day and all the small miracles within it.
It’s not the end that matters, it’s the moments between the beginning and the end, that give
life meaning and are worthy of celebration, slow down and enjoy them.

Wisdom
Wisdom~ 🦉
Wisdom is the gift that comes after every loss, every error in judgment, every heartache and every wrong turn.
She is the sage whisper that comes in your dreams, offering the insight allowing you to surrender, trust and let go.
She is the awakening during those ahh-ha moments, when you’re grateful for the hurt, the lesson and the learning.
She does not judge, she wants only whats best for you. She is the gentle knowing that acceptance and forgiveness, bring peace and growth.
She is always with you. She has been since the beginning. She is the light on the path guiding you home.

You’re groovy baby
Listen, you were born to be the amazing, messy, colorful, sunshiny, curious, fun-loving, forever work-in-progress, soul that you are.
You’re absolutely groovy baby!

One day…
One day you’ll;
🌷stop trying to impress others,
🌷no longer feel the need to win every race or argument,
🌷stop explaining yourself and forcing connections that feel uncomfortable,
🌷realize your peace and your energy is sacred,
🌷stop chasing people and things that are not meant for you,
🌷stop wanting more and be grateful for what you have,
🌷walk away before your soul becomes heavy,
🌷appreciate simple things, like, calm mornings, good people, a good book, the sites and sounds of the natural world, and a life that’s not hurried or rushed.
And when this day arrives, you will bask in the beauty, the wisdom and growth you’ve acquired along the way, and settle into the most comfortable and joyful part of life.
Now, you just have to pick the day.

Let them linger
Let them linger in the magic of
their wonder years.
Let them play, dream, be silly, build sand castles and make lots of colourful messes.
Let them grow into who they’re meant to be, not who you want them to be.
We need their creativity, playfulness, imagination and their light, to build us a better world.
So, let them.

Relax
We spend so much time trying to map out and plan every aspect of our lives, we often forget that sometimes, the most beautiful parts of life, are the moments we never saw coming.
🩷☀️🩷
So, relax, grab a coffee, and trust that life is unfolding as it’s meant to be.

Nature calls us home
The sounds of;
trees swaying,
wind blowing,
a river flowing,
a camp fire crackling,
raindrops falling,
waves rolling,
thunder clapping,
birds singing,
is natures way of
calling us home.

Your soul is safe
We all have days where life feels heavy. Days where you just feel off and don’t know who, what or where you’re supposed to be. Days where the demands, the change coming at you or the sadness, can be overwhelming. You might not know where these feelings are coming from, but, there they are.
But also know this; no matter what’s going on around you or what the world throws at you, there’s purpose and learning in all of it. Even the really painful bits.
Your soul knows what it’s here to do. It understands the challenging times, and the hard stuff life throws at you.
Trust that your soul is taking care of you as you go through these difficult days. Listen to the inner voice of your very wise little soul, she has a plan, and holds the secrets to everything.
No matter what you’re going through, know that you’re okay, and know that your precious soul is always, always, safe.

We’re all just twinkly bits
We’re all just twinkly bits, that fell from the same star.
Yup, you, me and everyone else, we’re one big, colourful, cosmic, family, made from the same stuff.
We have to take care of the family, the
WHOLE family. Yep, even you’re sassy annoying messy, brother, and crazy aunt Alice, and that weird hippie cousin who shows up every few years, and the neighbour that’s on his own, they all need love, kindness and understanding too.

We don’t have to agree on love
Love is not always,
loud, public, flashy
or wrapped in a bow.
Sometimes, it’s the
calm presence of
someone who cares.
It’s the reassuring
voice of a parent
or friend cheering
you on.
It’s the ones who
show up when life
gets hard. It’s
supportive and kind.
It might be a hug,
a hand to hold or
a shoulder to cry
(or laugh) on.
Sometimes, love is,
messy hair, sunshine
sweatpants, and
a furry wet nose.
Love looks different
to all of us. It’s shaped
by our experiences,
values, personalities,
even our DNA.
You decide what
love looks like to you,
then, bask in it.
We don’t have to
agree on a single
definition of love,
to know that the
world needs more of it.
Live and let live,
Love and let love.
