~ Keep them close

We all have those beautiful souls who shine wisdom and warmth into our lives. They help us grow, are the sunshine on our rainy days, and, the starlight that guides us home when life gets dark.
Be mindful of their presence.
They didn’t show up by accident, so, keep them close🤗.

~ Hey, go get lost!

Some of our greatest adventures
happen when we “think” we’re lost; when really, sometimes, getting lost is the best way to figure out who we are, and where we’re supposed to be.

Allow yourself to wander off the path every once in a while, have an adventure and, get a little lost.(but make sure you’ve got your phone and your GPS, and water and extra socks and a bit of chocolate just in case😁)

~ You really are amazing

Wow! You are unlike anything else in the entire universe. A billion beautiful things had to line up so you could be here living this life.

Just the right amount of star dust landing in the same place, then generations of your ancestors making decisions and taking tiny steps that led to the creation of you! You really are something special!

There’s a spark in you that holds your purpose and potential!! It’s the magic that makes you authentically you.
Light that thing up !!

~Where do you feel most like yourself?

Where do you feel most like
yourself? The place where your mind, body and soul meet to express who you REALLY are?
~ the forest?
~ your workshop?
~ the garden?
~ the ocean?
~ your book nook?
~ church?
~ the gym?
~ your craft room?
~ on your bike?
~ in the barn?
~ in the kitchen
making cupcakes?

This is your place of peace.
We all need this place to rejuvenate and remember who we REALLY are.
Go there.
Often.

Slow down

For most of our adult lives, the majority of us are on a mad, noisy, furious dash to get to some elusive place or prize.

It’s when we slow down, that we realize the prize (and the magic) happens on the quiet, slow days; the days we take time to notice, experience and inhale the world around us. These are the days that bring us back to life and remind us who we are💛

~ Nothing blooms without the rain

There is something very peaceful about watching the rain fall.
Each of those little droplets feeding our little blue planet and everything on it; reminding us that while storms will blow into our lives and challenge us, they will also provide the greatest opportunities to pause, slow down and grow.

So accept those dark clouds when they roll in, knowing that nothing blooms or grows without the rain, including me and YOU ☔️ .
